Good Morning!  Or I hope it is for everyone.  AOL is stinking up the joint at my house.  I click on stories that I thought would be a good read, and guess what.  It isn't even there.  Can't find it.  That is after waiting forever to have the damn page load.  Journals?  OMG!  Some I can get to others I can't.  Comment?  Ohh if AOL is in the mood it allows me.  Then we have my mail.  Holy shit!  I tried to fill tag requests last night and mail was moving at a snails pace.  I was able to whip thru the tagging, but when I went to send it out I sat and sat, and sat some more.  The graphics aren't that large but to wait several minutes for the graphic to load and then several more for mail to go, GRRRRRR  I did several last night but then I got frustrated and figured I'd do them this morning before work.  No such luck!  I know I have a few more to do, so if you haven't gotten it yet it will be there.  I will do them tonight. 

 

Have a great day and may your surfing experience be a good one...........  use another browser!  LOL  Let's see if I can get this entry to load.  GRRRRRRRR

Well, looks like it's unanimous.  We're all experiencing off and on problems with AOL.  Anybody have a better alternative?  I say that because it's all I've used since the 90's!  Oh, my.  Guess I've become a creature of habit!  Linda

Hey Donna sorry about AOL it stinks sometimes. I tried to send an email the other day about  10 times and it never would go. It would upload pic but wouldn't send it. i waited and waited and waited till i got tired of waiting so i had to shut aol down and start all over. did this several times. lol

Hey... are you using the AOL software or are you connecting thru AOL.com with a stand alone browser? I find the AOL client software brings my computer to a crawl, so I seldom use it. In fact, it's not even loaded on the new laptop. I can get to everything I need (mail, journals, hometown, AOLpics, message boards) all with the independent web browser... and if you use Firefox it's even better. That all being said, AOL is sometimes slow even without their bloaty software!!!

Another thing is -how- you connect to the internet. Some companies have a 'fair use' clause. If you upload or download more than your assigned quota in a 24 hour period they will put you on hiatus and things slow down to a crawl as your requests to their network are put at the back of the queue. I have satellite internet and my quota is the personal plan and if I download a new program or too many videos I go to a crawl. Good news is that they 'release' you in 24 hours and your speed returns to normal, but it is frustrating. I am getting ready to pay $10 more a month just so I can have a larger quota (I will be going from the 'personal' plan to the 'business' plan). I think the personal plan is probably fine for 1 person doing just e-mail and a little browsing, but we are -2- people AND we both are heavy users <LOL>

Is AOL your main Internet server?  Are you a paying customer or using it via the free AOL?

I'm using an external ISP, but things AOL are not exactly moving at a rate of knots either, Donna.

You are not alone my friend...I've been having AOL problems everytime I've logged on today.  It doesn't matter if I am using Broadband or dialup - it is all messed up.  Let's hope it gets better....well I guess it has to, right? (Love the graphic)

As you know I'm not around much during the week, guess you could say I'm lucky that I miss this stuff

Ugh...it's been a mess.  I couldn't even open my own journals.  I was getting some error page that said they didn't exist.  It seems to have cleared up finally.  I see you had a TOS.  I figured out from the comments who it was.  I'm sure that's why it's a private journal now and wouldn't worry about the attitude.  Love ya, Chris
