Oh man, AOL sucks. Heh, I remember a friend of mine who lives about two minutes away from me who's a total rich kid. Typically, his mummy and daddy chose AOL as the ISP. I remember one time when it kept messing up and when we tried to get help we were connected in live chat to a member of staff. There's so many things I wish I had said to that damn AOL person.
in the last 40 seconds I couldn't understand what that guy was talking about. This is what talking on the phone about technical stuff is like for me

AOL is my ISP...Originally Posted by Yamaneko

Making a slow come back since 2008
Well, yams, AOL is still the easiest drug to get addicted to out there. Not everyone has a pseudo ISP avaialble. Its pathetic, but many phone companies have worse inet service than AOhelL. It is a rather easy system to use, for people who could care less about such things as reasoining, and logic. I am constantly running into the family, single person, and even buisness that use AOL. IT is sick, but it does what they need it to do - except cancel itself

I've never been stuck with AOL, ... good thing too. 'Course, back when I was using dial-up, it was passworded and I didn't have the passwordThat kinda sucked.
no matter how important something might be (ie. a giant meteor is in the sky and threatening the planet) you can always just stop in at the Golden Saucer and gamble on some dodos running around a track.

AOL was so big back in the days, EVERYONE was in it, but now everyone's just using internet explorer and such(with cable/dsl)
who uses internet explorer?
I said INTERNET EPLORER and similar programs like Safari.
Oh yeah, there's also this AOL Explorer, haha funny and it's free. Anyway, AOL really has no meaning now.
PS: Their IM thing used to be the best...and they had a cool profile thingy. Well it's all history now.
AOL has a call center here in Tampa. My sister-in-law used to work there. They do that stuff on purpose. Also, if you call all pissed off they'll put you on hold and keep you there, until you hang up, so they don't have to listen you yell...
USA really sucks for things like this.
I've never had a problem cancelling my Internet over here in England. :/
"As the days go by, we face the increasing inevitability that we are alone in a godless,
uninhabited, hostile and meaningless universe. Still, you've got to laugh, haven't you?"
companies like AOL have entire "retention" centers where they do everything possible to keep people from cancelling. Of course they could spend more time making their service not suck and then they wouldn't need to bust so hard on retention.
eestlicn knows what he's talking 'bout. And yes I agree, they should lower that forsaken 25 dollar price down to $5 or $10, it's not such a great service, the only good thing 'bout AOL is it's security softwares and the IMging thingy.
People use AOL?
