  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL Poor lady she tried to help. Maybe if she would have helped the student pay they would have left her alone. Very sad.🙁

  • thetylerhayes Tyler Hayes 🍩 bring donuts (@thetylerhayes) reported from San Francisco, California

    @joshelman AOL was a literal life changer for me. That dial up sound may be awful but even to this day it makes me want to go back a little

  • ghiamia73 melania’s motherboard (@ghiamia73) reported from Oakland, California

    @StephenGlahn @AOL And Capitol police didn’t do shit

  • espi espi (@espi) reported from San Francisco, California

    I tried to customize my Slack color scheme and it’s nothing short of appalling. Come to think of it, I never really was good at AOL color profiles, either.

  • ZachRoth Zach Roth | zachroth.eth (@ZachRoth) reported from San Francisco, California

    I straight called AOL tech support at one point to ask them how to open a “dot ZIP” file.

  • pkellner pkellner (@pkellner) reported from San Francisco, California

    @julielerman @AOL My dad asked me once why his computer was so slow. He said he had bought some software from Nigeria for a great deal that was suppose to speed it up.

  • airgups23 Shiv (@airgups23) reported from Lafayette, California

    @AdtechGod 3 reasons I'm right: 1. The #s are going down. 2. FB has never shown they can innovate, all 'innovation' has come through acq. Gov't won't let them acq anymore. 3. Sheryl is gone and and Mark is ET. 4. Metaverse is too far away. In 2000 no one thought AOL could fail either.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL That's really sad. poor girl.🙁

  • stevenredd stevenredd (@stevenredd) reported from San Francisco, California

    @Ky71Matt @notcapnamerica Hello! Of course I still have an AOL address! How am I supposed to sign up for porn sites I’m never going back to again?!?!

  • cw4emeryville Courtney Welch (@cw4emeryville) reported from Emeryville, California

    I never learned to type from Mavis Beacon programs, it was using AOL instant messenger everyday after school for an hour.

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I feel bad for her. This guy wanted to cheat on his wife [ she didn't know he was married ] Then wanted to get rid of the problem when he was to dumb to use protection. 😐

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL I agree. The problem is a lot of people either can't afford or have no room to store clothes. Very sad.😐

  • SFnatives San Francisco Native (@SFnatives) reported from San Francisco, California

    @stephendelong78 @CALWDA @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD #CAEDD Is a complete disaster. INCOMPETENCE. It’s like as if someone who has dial-up Internet, an AOL email account and thinks ctrl+alt+delete is tech support is running the IT programming Dept. @CA_EDD The “pending” glitches and lack of cust. service needs to end ! PUA, PEUC>PAY

  • rod4p Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California

    @AOL poor guy. He's a nice person.🙁

  • jjsignal JJSignal™ (@jjsignal) reported from El Cerrito, California

    @The_Katbot It was also the reason I managed to push my parents off of AOL and move on to a better ISP, since AOL required its launcher to be open to stay online. I think it was a common complaint. Before that, I would use Net Zero accounts until I was flagged as a "heavy user" good times.

  • yasSF Yasmine Scallan (@yasSF) reported from San Francisco, California

    AOL! TERRIBLE! It was to mean “America On Line”! Could not keep a tech advisor complete a help request on line to resolve problems with my email. Jess said “hello, what seems to be the problem” then disappeared and I had to pay to get him on line to start! VERIZON wake up please!

  • sunnyfbaby el sole, himself. (@sunnyfbaby) reported from Oakland, California

    @solesupremacy AOL -> chats -> Japan -> bay area a-z-ns lol. Damn im that old

  • mrjasonroy Jason Roy (@mrjasonroy) reported from San Francisco, California

    @jpawgmafia Downloading the STATE logos off of AOL online and printing them up and putting them in my room. That aged the **** out of me.

  • TenantsUpstairs Natasha Vo (@TenantsUpstairs) reported from San Francisco, California

    my first aol screen name was sk8rgrl91 so never had any doubt about it

  • w00t John Vantine (@w00t) reported from Oakland, California

    @mygiantrobot DMX - Ruff Ryders Anthem. Pre-Napster, there were private chat rooms on AOL where people would “serve” MP3s. So painfully slow on a 14.4 kbit/s dial-up connection. Simpler times!

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • TimSaundersVCW Tim Saunders (@TimSaundersVCW) reported

    @cgheilman AOL never connected as fast as that gif would suggest. You’d sit in that first box for at least 30 seconds waiting for the screeching to finish.

  • officialvenlord 50fifty (@officialvenlord) reported

    @DebatesDefence @AOL You’ve got to be careful who you contact for help cause not everyone mentioned in the comments section is actually out to help. If you’re having any trouble with your account and you need help i can only suggest you reach out @utopiantechh, that’s the only person I’m sure of

  • MercerWHU91 Joe 父 (@MercerWHU91) reported

    @aldredtj Mines buffering like ****. Like watching it on AOL dial up

  • andykhouri Andy Khouri (@andykhouri) reported

    @mercurialblonde Back in the day AOL would automatically boot you from chat rooms for saying nasty **** to people. It’s absolutely possible to moderate social media, but because the economics is based not on fees but eyeballs, even bullies count.

  • jacktla jack t (@jacktla) reported

    @kk94833022 Lol I never had AOL! But they sent out a lot of 💿s that's for sure. 👍🏼

  • hirezgowser Gow 🎄 (@hirezgowser) reported

    Kids will never know the scrubness of having a CompuServe email address in a sea of AOL users in middle school. It sounds dumb but the judgement was real.

  • smegma_joe Joe ****** (@smegma_joe) reported

    @koreandahaus It seems police decoys have not gotten more sophisticated since the days of aol chat rooms. Man I miss people going, "**** off Chris Hansen! We were having fun!"

  • TheOnlyDij DAMN FINE DIJAH (@TheOnlyDij) reported

    Im deleting my Facebook I hate it. Maybe I’ll make a new one…. I know so many cool ppl on there. Why can’t this be like the 2000s and we can just AOL IM each other or sum ****.

  • cyclone_tx Texas Cyclone🌪🌪🌪 (@cyclone_tx) reported

    @smead4WP It’s so frustrating. She’ll only use aol because it’s what she knows. Teaching her to use a diff routine is going to be impossible. I’m coming back next month hoping to put some safeguards in place, like shutting down all but one or 2 credit cards to start.

  • WendyGowens2 Wendy Gowens (@WendyGowens2) reported

    @DebatesDefence @AOL Same thing happened to me few weeks back I contacted support and there was no improvement. Someone on here recommend @hsbbits to me and they help me recover my account back. His an expert.
