Latest outage, problems and issue reports in Merrifield and nearby locations:

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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!!

  • 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

  • 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)

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

    @cclareMDMPH Two. I never had an AOL address.

  • Cr8DigitalAsset Christina Haftman (@Cr8DigitalAsset) reported from Fair Oaks, Virginia

    @robertoblake I went to college pre internet. We had large computers with floppy disks, DOS command prompt, loud, vibrating dot matrix printers and slow screechy modems. This was before Windows and IE. Before email. Before AOL. Before NETZERO. Before Yahoo Messenger.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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. 🫤

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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

  • 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?

  • EnthusiastJunk1 Enthusiast Junkies (@EnthusiastJunk1) reported

    @adamjohnsonNYC @ItsJusCurt You’ll be forced to use crypto at some point whether you like it or not . I remember guys like you saying they would never use a cell phone, eBay, aol, Facebook, etc … the world doesn’t care about people like you . It’s the direction things are headed regardless what you feel.

  • ilikecontests Apparently I'm an anarchist. Go figure. (@ilikecontests) reported

    @play_pso2 Yep, but I never got to take my DC online. Wasn't compatible with AOL, and I could never finagle NetZero into working.

  • Kodi_bear Conquerer of the Jutes (@Kodi_bear) reported

    @michaelpollan in my long history of studying guardian articles getting brutally ratio-ed, I have never seen such a massive, comprehensive, and ruthless backlash as your article on giving up caffeine. The failure to read the room on this is up their with not buying AOL stock.

  • PoetaBarbara Barbara Poeta (@PoetaBarbara) reported

    Here's what I would REALLY love -- If NO ONE shows up from any reputable TV news agency or publication or AOL or Twitter to hear whatever crap the former guy has to say 1/6. He's just trying to distract from HOUSE coverage & will not take Q's. Pay him the huge insult he deserves.

  • Nymdok Nymdok🇮🇹⚛ (@Nymdok) reported

    @dumbreepicheep Hehehehe yep....I did too...the first 10k times I saw it... Then I began to fear it could destroy western civilization from with in The variants were infinite. It could be sent *casually* (unlike ******). AOL was damn near destroyed just in Email attachements alone....

  • ysterrd nik || comms open (@ysterrd) reported

    the only things i can say is that i'm afraid of appropriating language i can't use bc there may be things i'm not aware of, and whenever i see a slur written out my brain immediately blanks it out like i received psychic damage and got sent to the aol dial up page

  • adera_morgan Adera†🇰🇪🇿🇦 (@adera_morgan) reported

    Down with Green Bay Packers and Milwaukee Bucks...this German fraud and his band of useless players can go to hell... AOL YAWA!!!

  • AwesomAsperger SpectrumAnalyziz (@AwesomAsperger) reported

    Bravo @Walmart customer safety is important and #Walmart is proveing they take it seriously Unlike @Meijer #Meijer refuses to commit to safe stores ://www.aol.com/walmart-temporarily-shut-nearly-60-235154242-005948339.html Walmart temporarily shut almost 60 U.S. stores

  • apenwarr apenwarr (@apenwarr) reported

    People who believe we can’t standardize 3D objects between renderers could not have imagined the web. People who think Facebook will do it would never have left AOL.

  • celebsarecancel celebrities exposé (@celebsarecancel) reported

    After being found guilty for harassment of writer JK Rowling, user @PumpkinWitch6 has been banned from the use of Twitter for 12 hours. “I couldn’t help myself. I hate that *****” said the trans rights activist via AOL instant messenger. We stand with JKR-antis! #freejustin
