1. When will things work as they used to

   I just wasted over an hour trying to sign into Gold. After the little white box appeared two blue circles would freeze and got message "not responding", yet every other website I tried was no issue.
   I finally wasted more time calling Tech Support and reporting the issue. Other than trying to sell me some check up program I do not need, wanting to reinstall which I had done a short time ago making no difference in all the problems and filing a case number, that was it.
   I again reported my seven carousel icons which are moved every time I sign on and need to be manually moved back to where I want them. Every time Gold magically signs out, I have to repeat process. Not to mention on three occasions when I was signed out for nothing I did, emails I had started to write now appear on every sign on. This is from months ago. I can't get rid of them by deleting or trying to send. They just reappear with the dreaded news page on the welcome screen each sign on.
   I also asked the Tech when the mouse forward/backward buttons will work like they used to, Tech said no reports of problem. It's nice to say AOL has Techs, but if they can't fix issues, what is the point? I was told if issues aren't fixed, call back with my case number, and then what? It is a vicious circle of people complaining about problems and AOL dismissing them. How is it that the mouse button fix which I was told would work by Dec 2017 and it still isn't fixed, I have complained and reported numerous times and Tech says there is no report to this issue? Come on AOL, get your act together. Wouldn't it be easier to get things fixed so they work like they used to rather than wasting everyone's time trying work arounds, reinstalling and complaining?

   On Monday, July 9, I called AOL tech services re: buffering. The Tech, Aeriel, told me that I had to get the OPTIMIZER and that he had to uninstall AOL Gold and Reinstall. I told him NO, last time (with blue aol) all my email folders were lost and it took 6 days to find someone to reinstallo. He said NO, the GOLD had a back and assured me I would not loose anything. Then we got disconnect. When I called back and spoke with Kevin, he could not help and got me to Supervisor, Jessie. She told me that she could reinstall from the AOL large computer and that she would work on it and call be back prior to midnight PST.. SHE NEVER CALLED ME BACK! The msg of restoring my Personal Filing cabinite continued to buffer for 48 hours. Still no result. Am now working with Al, who is trying to help me.
   Gail Mason. Kindly fix issue ASAP restore the deleted saved folders the previous agent did because it is very vital and be used for a case. Thank you.

3. search history

   Suppose you had one or more window tabs open on the aol desktop. It used to be that when you would click the "welcome" tab, the space in which to type a new URL was blank. This is no longer the case. The AOL software would only try to "guess" previously used URLs when I started typing in the URL space. It would really be nice to have the software work this way again, because the software currently automatically puts an already used URL in the URL space, which can be very distracting. If you give me your direct Phone number, I can call and we can do a remote session if need be.

4. Please bring back 9.8.2

   First of all, let me start by saying that I have been an AOL customer for more than 20 years and I am really mad. Bring back 9.8.2. This version stinks. When I try to print my emails, it leaves out half of the previous emails/responses. The old version told you whether or not you had any emails and how many when changing screen names, this one does not. You have to switch and sign on to find out if you have any emails. There are also other issues with the software. And to think for all these problems posted here on this website,and the headaches we are having with the program, you are charging an additional $4.99 per month. What about a refund for the **** you have sold us. What a ***** job. Your software techs need to fix this ASAP or trash it and bring back the old version. Also since your new software has appeared, the email on my wife's and my android smart phone has not worked properly. When I try to respond to an email, the phone says loading info and won't let you send an email. I loaded the AOL android app for my phone and that works about as bad as AOL Gold for computers. My android app shows I have emails, then when I go to the AOL android app to respond, the emails are not there, even when I drag down to refresh. I called Verizon about the email problem and they said they were having problems with AOL and put me on a three way conversation with an AOL rep. Rep said they had issues and gave me a service order number. That was about a month ago and nothing has been done. AOL Gold is not Gold, it's not even Silver or Bronze. It's more like scrap metal. I am a business customer and if you don't get this fixed ASAP, I will be moving on to something that works.

   Oops
   Something went wrong. We're working on getting this fixed as soon as we can. You may be able to try again later. Really what's later!!

   You're not working on any of it!! That's why we still have all these nightmare issues!!

   This is insane. From one thing to another. AOL keeps changing everything up. Now when you send an email it's set up differently.
   You can't even get the bugs worked out of all the other nightmare problems..Now I can't post any of my pictures on FB!

6. This new [Unsubscribe] next to the From line of the email - why is it there?

   It isn't on every email I receive. Some members of many groups I belong to have it in their emails to me and others don't. Why would I unsubscribe from a private person's email? If this is AOL's way of trying to do the "Do Not Call" list for spammers, isn't it just telling them our email addresses really exist. I learned years ago to NEVER reply to a spam message - isn't that what the unsubscribe would do if a spam message was in with our regular messages?

7. Terms Of Service seems to be selective in AOL Chatrooms

   AOL reestablished the use of REPORT in their chatrooms...and this sometimes results in a chatroom member losing their screen name for repeated violations...HOWEVER, not all TOS violators wind up losing their screen names and are bullying and harrassing other chatroom members in this one particular chatroom -- ROMANCE 60s PLUS LOVE -- several of the regular members brag that they are "protected" and will nevah lose their screen names while some trying to be honest and forthright lose screen names right and left....ARE THERE PROTECTED MEMBERS IN THE CHATROOMS AND IF SO WHY IS THAT SO? DID NOT THINK AOL ALLOWED FOR ROOM MANAGERS ANY LONGER...PLEASE ADVISE !!!!!

10. desktop gold mail composing.

    On Desktop Gold, when trying to write an email, there are no longer manageable margins. in other words, when typing a line in an email, it keeps going beyond the margins of the email, and when one hits "enter" to go to the next line, one loses sight of the cursor completely, with no means of scrolling to the left. There is no justification whatsoever.
    When I spoke to tech support, they are clueless, saying one must go to full page size to write an email. That is not workable.

    Also, the latest update appears to count words. that is not something most users need or require and should be eliminated.

    I have been a Desktop gold user for decades. This will cause me to unsubscribe. Please respond asap. thank you.

12. Opportunities to Improve Your News Posts

    For the last two years now your "News" articles have bee dominated by two subjects, including: 1) Anything negative or critical about Donald Trump, his administration or his family and 2) All things Meghan Markle. For example, today, July 6, 2019, you have a total of 7 of 81 News articles about Meghan Markle. That's roughly 8.6% of all your news articles. Someone need to tell you folks that this simply isn't "News", and no one wants 8.6% of their news articles to be about one subject, much less Meghan Markle. With all that is going on in the world, I know you and all the folks at AOL, can do better than that. Please Try, for our sakes.

15. Make it Faster

    I have mentioned this before in a post. This Gold version stinks. It cannot even keep up with my slow typing here on your comment block. I try to delete messages, and it takes way, way, too long to respond. You can improve it by clearing up the slowness, and if you cannot do that, then go back to the most previous version. My confidence level on Gold is lower than on any other application that I use daily. I have been a user for many, many years (and you can look it up if possible), and I have been very happy with the product until now! But you have ruined it with this "Gold" version. Sorry for the negative post, but that is the way I feel about a product that you have ruined!

16. GOLD support is Totally INCOMPETENT + UNCARING

    starting in beginning of Dec. 2017 -

    1- notified support about organizing favorites -
    response - thats the way it is + can not + will not be changed
    2 - at same time local news for location contained NO news for location , but contained news from 50 to 12,000 miles away - prior it contained news from local towns + area -
    response - reset location , clear cache , cookies , etc . + restart -
    - did not change - recontacted , NO response - contacted multiple times + received same scripted USELESS response or no no response at all - tried many different computers + internet carriers with same resukts , NO LOCAL NEWS - problem is definitely with AOL program+ NOT computer settings !
    3- posted problem here on GOLD suggestion board -
    response - SAME useless scripted suggestion to clear cookies + etc.. suggestion closed with no further votes or comments allowed - problem exist with no correction in sight , going on 6 weeks - multiple contacts with NO helpfull response since
    4- local traffic has not worked for over a month - again on multiple different computers -
    5 - if you are not going to listen to or act on consumer concerns + suggestions why solicit them ?

    paid subscriber for 20 plus years , but not for long ! - total frustration with AOL - msn , yahoo , + etc. much more user friendly with much better support - WHY have local NEWS + traffic when there is NO local content ? - why have favorites that can not be easily + conveniently arranged ? - why charge for a site that has become progressively more user unfriendly + biased ?

17. Your algorithm for screening comments still needs work and could benefit from AI!

    I've gone through several screenings for words I've used in comments! The word or words that caused rejection or challenging were in no way used offensively nor were the word or words in question made known to me. I'm keenly aware and support efforts to try and keep comments constructive. But your words have no value to me when I see others verbally attacking others (this time me) without the sensitivity you seek. I see lots of hateful language but not necessarily an offensive word. So your algorithm is useless for hateful sentencing and offensive and wrongly constricting when comments are appropriate, particularly when taken out of context! ! ! Perhaps you need to explore the value of AI and what benefit your algorithm will have! ! !

    PLEASE FIX THIS BUG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    
    This menu box keeps popping up with every click of my mouse...

It is quite annoying. I have to click on another spot on the screen to make it go away and then I have to re-click to try to get to where I was going. This menu sometimes keep popping up, 2-3 times back to back, when I am clicking on another spot on the screen to make it go away -- I have to keep clicking and clicking until it stops long enough for me to continue.

20. user not maintaining a good connection between the aol software and server

    It seems that the aol desktop gold software is not coded right to allow a smooth experience for the user. There is constant freezing for a second or two anytime I try to do anything on the software, from reading email to reading an article to typing feedback.
    A third party browser doesn't have this problem. Things are not always in sync.

    It seems like the servers just can't handle the load. A way to fix that would be to add more server capacity. It could also be the amount of network traffic, but again, adding more capacity to the servers would solve this problem. I don't know if this problem is more of a busy server issue or a bug in the software.
