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

  • 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)

  • 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.

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

    Why is my @aol email not working? 😢

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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!!

  • HeySheckie Sheck'quon 🤷🏻‍♂️ (@HeySheckie) reported from Bethesda, Maryland

    @ESPN your iPad app is literally one of the worst playback devices I have ever used. It’s like watching video on a 1994 AOL dial up. app.

  • JaydeColer Jayde Willow Coler🏳️‍⚧️ (@JaydeColer) reported from Arlington, Virginia

    He IS a security risk but I’d say he’s more like Netscape (old as shit and useless) or the old AOL software (kept around far longer than should have been because people liked the one catchphrase it had)

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • StepToTheMic Kodi Seaton (@StepToTheMic) reported from Washington, D.C., District of Columbia

    Some of you have never spent a summer messaging a complete stranger on dial-up AOL Instant Messenger and it shows. 😫 #LoveIsBlindNetflix #loveisblind

  • 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. 🫤

  • 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?

  • 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

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

    @aol email is still down

  • 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

  • Abomstar T.Q. Eel Is Back (w. The Vans) (@Abomstar) reported

    Their will never be another communications technology with as many advanced funcgionalities as AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). Case in point, when you typed a messege to someone the words would appear instantly in real time back and forth. No software today can compare to thaEVEN TW

  • wanyinbot Jiang Cheng (@wanyinbot) reported

  • ValToTheRie Val (@ValToTheRie) reported

    @fbsecurity Can you please help my disabled mom get her Facebook account back? I feel awful for trading-in her iPhone before making sure she knew the password! Her email attached to the account was an old AOL email which is now obsolete and there was no phone # attached

  • CJ_NFA Not Financial Advice (@CJ_NFA) reported

    @waitbutwhy Love at AOL was the bomb. Never got into the chats much... But they were entertaining. Slingo was entertaining with chat built in. I worked for AOL tech support.

  • xXBKARXx Brony King Amethyst Rain (@xXBKARXx) reported

    Started new #Nutaku account with #AOL Tuesday 29th to replace my old one linked to #Yahoo. I'll be seeking comp for my old account once a better Billing Service is available for them. Seriously, there needs to be more that accept sites like that to stop scams like Probiller

  • Keatonkohler calvin ridley #1 fan (@Keatonkohler) reported

    @jefrob033 @krypt1ck1tten Yeah she never had dial up aol pain lmao
