AOL Outage in Springfield, Fairfax County, 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.

@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!!

@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.

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.

@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.

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)

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

@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.

Why is it so damn hard to contact @AOL ... suspect I've been phished, trying to change email address so my emails cannot be accessed ... no email support, no UK number 😩

Hon. Betty Aol Ochan promised to support and push for this cause before the 10th Parliament closes its business.

@wordcriminal i've tweeted something similar, but the same boomers who said to never give my name or address in AOL chatrooms are currently uploading government identification to facebook and giving out their social security numbers to obvious phishing emails

@JanieGotHerGun When I was a moderator on AOL it was exactly my job to have to root out **** like this. e__e

Have we just stopped doing set piece defence training at the AOL? ******* #SAFC

.@aolmail so I guess you're selling my email addy to India & scammers of Norton which I have NEVER used .. Received their scammy email this morning & called them what bullshit..

@AOLSupportHelp hi just been in touch with you regarding email problems but lost your message! Sorry could you please resend.

@HayleyDLondon Imagine telling someone to "google" something in 2001. They would think you were making an innuendo of sorts. All we had were Yahoo, Ask Jeeves, AOL and MSN - and they were all ****. Plus, remember what it was like to have a mobile and no internet???

@AOLSupportHelp hi I contacted you yesterday re problem with my e mail. Your advice didn’t help so you gave me another contact which I have deleted. Could you please remind me. I can’t send email & I’m not receiving any. It’s saying there’s a problem with username or password.

This chick is ridiculously weird I’ve never seen anything like this in my life. I never experienced any **** like this in my life and I’ve been on the Internet since aol dial up . 🙄 wtf? I never had a stalker , cyber bully, Who anytime I confront in person quiet as a mouse
