  • davidbyttow David Byttow (@davidbyttow) reported from San Francisco, California

    My mom controlled our AOL account when I was about 13 and would come into my room to sign me in. So, I created an entirely fake AOL login flow in Visual Basic and had her sign me in once to capture the password. Old school phishing.

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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?!?!

  • 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

  • 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.

  • 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.🙁

  • 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!

  • 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.😐

  • 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.

  • 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

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

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

  • 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.

  • 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!

  • 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. 😐

  • 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.

  • 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.

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

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

  • rjinsoma rjsf (@rjinsoma) reported

    Asking for pics on #Sniffies and #Grindr is so AOL. I mean, what year is it? Is you tryna **** or nah? 🧐

  • vella_mike Mike V. (@vella_mike) reported

    @judgeht21 @respectablepp @molly0xFFF LOL, what articles? Were you even alive in the 90’s? I had broadband internet in 1996 and working from home when necessary by y2k. By the middle of the decade millions were using dial up via ISPs or AOL and the like. The blockchain literally solves for zero problems.

  • pmvcornish pmvc218 (@pmvcornish) reported

    @sharrond62 2/2 I'm trying out a reporting service that claims to identify and block the addresses & isp's. (SpamCop)...will see how it goes! Funny thing,before Yahoo got involved, AOL had almost zero spam traffic, and I've been with them over 20 years!

  • newdaynewlife11 Stand for something (@newdaynewlife11) reported

    @IBJIYONGI One of tech’s biggest scams is subscription-based paid apps/platforms. This ain’t the days of free software with every computer sold unless they get to track you. Even then... (never thought AOL cd’s would ever be missed... lol

  • spinnie96 Spinnie (@spinnie96) reported

    @AOLSupportHelp our business email account has been hacked and it no longer recognises our email address. We need to retrieve this ASAP for work reasons. Please help. Thankyou

  • LensRising Maurice “Mo” Monroe (@LensRising) reported

    @FinesseEness I saw someone write down “@ aol .com” and immediately looked back up at them. I just feel like you lying.

  • anjilz4me Raquel (@anjilz4me) reported

    @AOL i stopped receiving emails a few days ago. Not on iPhone, not thru AOl on web browser. So I called cust.service. They wanted to charge me for a yearly service. When I said I didn’t want to sign up he said well you can look in the help section. Wow! Been with them forever.

  • floodums Summertime Dad Mode Andrew (@floodums) reported

    When I was in middle school I had the biggest crush on this girl and kept bugging her for her AOL name and she finally writes it down xx69boys69xx and naive little me was like awesome thanks so much because I had no idea she was trolling me.

  • marcdwatson Marc Watson (@marcdwatson) reported

    @AOLSupportHelp Hi. I can not generate a new password for use with Outlook as when I click the button to generate a password, it says its not available - so I now have no access to my emails on my phone help needed...!

  • HonuDan Dan Cunningham (@HonuDan) reported

    @RadioCarla They had all those Studio Stores in the 90s which were successful and wonderful too, but the AOL merger shut them down. The new regime didn’t like to pay rent $$$
