  Lauren Kahn #BringOnVaccineMandates! 😷 (@laurenskahn) reported 2 minutes ago 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.

  @AOL Aol should get their stories straight. Tried to lower my costs and agreed to $5 plan, but still being billed $18.95. Can't get right person to correct problem. HELP. Long time user of AOL. HELP!!! Thanks in advance.

  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.

  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)

  The Invasion angle should've been the most epic moment in Wrestling. Without all the major stars from WCW, it never lived up to those expectations. Very disappointing. There also was no Twitter to explain those AOL contracts for those stars too. #RuthlessAggression

  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

  @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

  @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.

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

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

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

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

  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.

  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)

  @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.

  @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!!

  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.

  @LitterboxComics I was a new dad trying to research way to help my wife. Been trolling the depths of the internet for fun since AOL was a thing. I was not prepared for the deprivation and inhumanity I found in online parenting forums.

  @lithos_graphein @brockpierson Love it, fond memories of my BBS days. I was one of the first in my area to get a meg drive for my Commodore 64! I still dream of the sound the modem used to make. Then the Prodigy service came along and soon after the mass mailing of AOL disks! That was the end of most BBS’s

  Currer Ellis (@ActonBell) reported 4 minutes ago

  @DerrickEvans4WV Can we just go back to AOL and dial up internet? Do we really need everything connected to everything…? I don’t think so. Let’s cancel this AI stuff.

  Rakesh Agrawal (@RakeshSFNYC) reported 12 minutes ago

  @ckneumann The dev team I worked with on one of my projects at Aol was from Mapquest. Absolute worst team I've ever worked with. But in this case, the fault was leadership.

  @AntiEVidiots When EVs were niche, driving one was like being part of a community with a shared secret. Similar to being on the internet in the early 1990s, before the AOL hordes turned up with their poor netiquette.
