  1. Save Column Widths

    While this is not a new idea, I tough a new appeal might draw attention to it. On the default AOL Desktop screen are “My Mail Folders” on the left and individual emails under “Date”, “From”, and “Subject” headings on the right. I can adjust the width of the “My Mail Folder” area. I can adjust the width of the three email headings. If I switch between the “Inbox”, “New”, “Old”, and “Sent” tabs, the widths remain. However, if I close AOL desktop, they do not get saved. Even going to the “Search Mail” tab and back, resets all of…

  2. GET RID OF CENSORSHIP ON AOL NEWS

    Get rid of your AI algorithms that constantly misinterpret articles, and go strictly by 'word content'. If you are saying WHAT IS YOUR OPINION? The how the F##k can you censor a person when they give their opinion. Furthermore, if their content doesn't agree with the average Joe Biden or Birney Sanders thought pattern - they censor you. I have been a paying customer for over 25 years!!!!!!!!!!!! MY OPINION MATTERS! LET'S FIRE THE SONS OF BITCHES WHO THINK THEY ARE SMARTER THAN EVERYONE ELSE! ESPECIALLY THE LIBTARDS!

  4. No Prev and Next Buttons in Search Mail Tab

    I am using AOL Desktop Revision 11.1.5071. When I open an email within my Inbox, the bottom right section of each email has buttons for “< Prev” and “Next>”. If I enter a string in the “Quick Find” box and open one of those emails, they have the same buttons. However, if I click on the “Search Mail” tab and enter a string, then open one of those emails, they do not have the “Prev” and “Next” buttons. Can you add them there?

  5. CompuServe Welcome Screen Not Working

    When signing in, the CompuServe Welcome Screen (main menu) doesn't load. Instead there's an error "This site can’t be reached
    Check if there is a typo in webcenters.netscape.compuserve.com.

    If spelling is correct, try running Windows Network Diagnostics.
    DNSPROBEFINISHED_NXDOMAIN"

    It appears "webcenters.netscape.compuserve.com" is no longer a valid site. Perhaps changing the welcome screen to use "https://member.compuserve.com/menu/" would be a good fix

  14. .

    WTH IS WRONG WITH YOU, AOL? My good emails are getting sent to "deleted" and my SPAM box is FILLED with disgusting **** ****! Are you so lacking in skilled staff that they can't weed those out entirely????!!! Additionally, I'm suddenly getting SWAMPED with SPAM every single day. I've been with AOL since the 90s and this is the WORST it has EVER been. Pages take WAY too long to load and the price of what passes for the "Gold" experience keeps going up as the quality of service is TANKING. Maybe hire some qualified staff and actually PAY ATTENTION…

  16. Reporting Violations and Muting Trolls

    For over a year, I've reported and complained about blatant violations of your Community Guidelines along with the inability to permanently mute apparent paid and/or alleged AOL employee trolls. One would expect if a violation is reported to receive notification whether or not it was approved or disapproved, but that doesn't happen. Further, there are trolls that post obvious lies and propaganda and beyond never getting an answer to violations, I never get an email or bell icon notification of their replies which leads me to believe these people are being protected. I'm unable to mute these people-even after muting…
