    @BlateWald That old chestnut... I've very used the internet with anonymity since 1990ish. Not about to start now. Actually all those n00bs who came online post 2005 have effectively ruined it or even those AOL free cd ones. They were the worst.

  • blinkpip Pips daniels (@blinkpip) reported

    @BatchStfc @Official_STFC Didn't receive one, but then again the Club always had issues sending emails to AOL email accounts. 🙄

  • AztekXYZ Aztek👨🏾‍💻 (@AztekXYZ) reported

    @varcharr Had a customer in 2015ish tell me he couldn’t get on the internet anymore. After about 15 minutes of deciphering his request, turns out he accidentally deleted the AOL shortcut from his desktop. He was not aware of other browsers on his computer. AOL WAS the internet for him.

  • paulcshipley Paul 🏴‍☠️ the other one... (@paulcshipley) reported

    Happy St Patricks Day to Google, HP, Apple, IBM, Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, Pfizer, GSK, PayPal, Microsoft, Yahoo, eBay, AOL and Intel. Who all claim to be from Ireland so they could dodge billions in tax. Never iron a four-leaf clover, because you don't want to press your luck

    @Xfinity Spent another 2 hours on the phone with Xfinity accomplishing nothing again today. Xfinity/Comcast has the absolute worst phone support of any company since AOL back in the nineties. It’s like they’re trying to make it as difficult as possible.

    @kyliebytes It was bad way back in the Prodigy/AOL days too. I feel the pain and struggle having lived it a long time ago at in a world 2800bps dail-up away...

  • Sheilas_Perfume lady In Red (@Sheilas_Perfume) reported

    @AOLSupportHelp really disappointed in your customer service - promised 2 weeks ago they would get back to me and they never did. It was my first order with you - I’m never ordering with you again

  • the_m4a Michael Fourre (@the_m4a) reported

    @zarchasmpgmr @CarmenCrincoli Would that make a difference in connecting to remote-side modems? I don't know enough about that... local (in-state, diff area code) MSN numbers, fail to connect. local AoL number (IIRC - free CD was 1-800, but you'd get referred to local) and cross-country MSN, connect.

  • the_m4a Michael Fourre (@the_m4a) reported

    @CarmenCrincoli I very much believe the telling of this tale (was asked who was my worst customer) in an interview got me a "no hire". Because AoL, connect between Windows and MSN support was non-existent. I still believe I did the right thing to get her connected that night

    @DrCABerry I had a cellophone at 9 for emergency only 👀 but I was using AOL all the point 0s IMs AIM
