Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Washington, D.C. and nearby locations:

  • JoelBurner1 📚The Paige Turner (@JoelBurner1) reported from Kensington, Maryland

    @MysterySolvent A fart horn. A small confederate flag & lapel pin (she would never ever wear in public.) And, the phone numbers of, Ron Watkins - "Q", Jim Watkins, AOL emails & Reddit names. Also, Madison Cawthorn's mothers cell.

  • MissInformation Heather Perram Frank BA (@MissInformation) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @annasproul I was one of a handful of producers in the Dulles, VA AOL newsroom on 9/11. The campus was evacuated after a plane that departed from the adjacent airport slammed into the Pentagon. I’ll never forgot having to sit on my hands because they were shaking so much I couldn’t type.

  • gatlingxyz Tavon (@gatlingxyz) reported from Huntington, Virginia

    I'd known about #DnD but never played. Not even the geeks/nerds in my school played, as far as I know. And most of my schools have always been predominantly Black, so there was no representation. (I did do a lot of text based RPing on AOL tho)

  • wardthreedc Ward Three DC (@wardthreedc) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @jstrandt Got to film their 5 millionth sign up party at KaloramaStudios in Adams Morgan and they never paid me! I went on Aol because my dad was CompuServe and I didn’t wanna be old LOL

  • Jimbo3DC Jimbo (@Jimbo3DC) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @woolfhound That was precisely my experience with NYT, and it reminded me if when I had similar experiences trying to cancel my AOL or Bally's membership. Tacky and desperate.

  • KarenCarolina84 Karen J (@KarenCarolina84) reported from Coral Hills, Maryland

    Why is my @aol email not working? 😢

  • francvs francvs (@francvs) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @AOL Why have I been seeing “We’re having trouble connecting with our servers. Please try again later,” for about a day now?

  • ShirleyImMilk G. Double D. (@ShirleyImMilk) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    Were talking about “What cultural item are you older than” at work. We’re slow. So far, I’m older than MTv, AOL and VHS cassettes. This is a fun game to make me feel like I AM ACTUALLY THE OLDEST IN THE STORE. I don’t like this game... I’m taking my slap wraps and going home.

  • MarkBjorge Mark Bjorge (@MarkBjorge) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    @ebooksyearn Even their status-title “network” is anachronistic in the modern telecom world. They’re like AOL back when it was a closed ecosystem.

  • SkeezeeWonder Anfernee Harlemway (@SkeezeeWonder) reported from Suitland, Maryland

    @freshleebaked Nah **** this I’m going back to AOL groupchats

  • perk713 DatDudePerk (@perk713) reported from Springfield, Maryland

    If you never heard of Cingular Wireless, Wachovia Bank or AOL..Address me as Unc

  • DrTraceyK Dr. Tracey Perez Koehlmoos (@DrTraceyK) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    @cclareMDMPH Two. I never had an AOL address.

  • GlendaF77551891 Glenda Flores (@GlendaF77551891) reported from Falls Hill, Virginia

    Jocelyne if you slept with Jason it’s cool…😒 You think I’m dumb right? I seen your porn collections and all you AOL chats 😒 The original convo was you slept with Meylene 😒 You think I’m stupid.

  • KarenCarolina84 Karen J (@KarenCarolina84) reported from Coral Hills, Maryland

    @aol email is still down

  • Helen_Highly HelenHighly (@Helen_Highly) reported from Alexandria, Virginia

    @Doc_Harding @Nerienis Perhaps their sudden popularity (and unprepared infrastructure) will destroy their success, like it did AOL back in the day with the busy-signal fiasco. 🫤

  • bucketOfBuckets Connor McGowan (@bucketOfBuckets) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    @aklingus There was like a 6 month period in the mid 90s where AOL chat rooms were a fun place to hang out… and when you started a convo with someone you’d have to rapid fire emails back and forth because there was no private chat or instant message system

  • RichardH1818 Richard Hanson ✡ (@RichardH1818) reported from Merrifield, Virginia

    Email server Recommendations anyone? AOL has been the host for mine--but now they've made it hard to use. They now put different, and very distracting, balloons at the beginning for each message. I don't want a message service that makes it harder.

  • laurenskahn Lauren Kahn #BringOnVaccineMandates! 😷 (@laurenskahn) reported from McLean Hamlet, Virginia

    banned. It happened to me over 10 years ago on the old #AOL travel message bds. I simply set up my own website & never involved myself with travel bds again. Some of the bullies became monitors on travel advisor's bds. W/o proper monitoring, sites become the domains of bullies.

  • AgarWoodCapital TTT Nguyen (@AgarWoodCapital) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    There can be no risk-free opportunity in sports, business or life. Failure is catastrophic bc of a lack of preparedness. Sears, DC redskins, Blackberry, AOL, & NYC knicks were at the top of their game, but they failed because they were afraid to fail. #failureispartofsuccess

  • Messe3Christina Christina Sheryl Messenger (@Messe3Christina) reported from Alexandria, Virginia

    @AOLSupportHelp I have been trying to get to deactivate the my account but when I called Customer Support, they’d told me that I would not be able to deactivate it for a year!! 😭😭😭 Please help me!!

  • runsamuck2 Just another sarcastic bastard (@runsamuck2) reported

    Is AOL still a thing? You've got a busy signal. Are busy signals still a thing?

  • tamathon concrete grapefruit (@tamathon) reported

    @PrincessSpaffy You never had to uninstall AOL dial up, then.

  • Chip192203 Steve Connolly (@Chip192203) reported

    @AOLSupportHelp So now you’re saying the information on the web that gives port numbers for numerous e-mail servers is a scammers page? Have you considered how much damage a scammer could do to various systems in the year since I sent you the initial message.

  • NikosRaves feral fruit (@NikosRaves) reported

    damn, when i was like 8-12 years old i would just reply to questions on yahoo answers for hours. club penguin, aol kids, powerpoints and yahoo answers were my fave things to do on the computer.

  • crypto_mayorEd Ed Mara Dantes (@crypto_mayorEd) reported

    @cosmos Digital world2.0. Blockchain #IBC inter Blockchain communication Digital world3.0. Let’s go @tendermint_team You got this. Slow and steady. We don’t want to be a AOL or Nokia we want to be the Apple the Amazon of Crypto universe @cosmosvalidator

  • bonbonult wenhan gatekeeper (@bonbonult) reported

    idc what anybody has to say nmj had no right to get angry at meng yao and considering executing him over him killing that general because that would first of aol make nmj a murderer too? second of all killing people's literally the only thing these stupid male cultivators did

  • schwagz124 Dylan (@schwagz124) reported

    Basically the service Nintendo used to deliver this specific email was incompatible with AOL Mail's email protocol I think. I did end up getting it finally but I think it was like- two days later.

  • newsnextnow Dennis Lamar (@newsnextnow) reported

    @SketchJD @AOLSupportHelp This is happening to me right now. What's the fix? I can log in via the web, but not through mail on my laptop or phone.

  • Raintree007 Raintree Is ADHD (@Raintree007) reported

    @Skyler4149 I remember back in the days of AOL, (I was young) that people would get together. And often that was not a good idea. People would lie about who they were all the time. Unfortunately it is easy to take people at their word. Don’t feel bad, people can be aweful.

  • Sicilianfixer01 Sicilian Fixer (@Sicilianfixer01) reported

    @Martineezze @IamJackBoot Damn those were the days ........and the AOL rooms were organized by state - so people even met ......today everyone is so paranoid
