And the way they have the AOL chat rooms now is just as ridiculous. They should have kept AOL and AIM seperate. Wtf is the point of mixing the two? If someone wants AOL features, DOWNLOAD AOL. If you just want AIM, JUST GET THE MESSANGER!<br><br>Is that really so difficult? 8.5 million? Really. Hello starving children in Africa- America spits on you, yet again.

Not everyone wants it on AOL. THERE IS NO 'OPT OUT' . There ought to be. And the former AOL profile should be available. MAYBE I SHOULD OPT OUT OF AOL!

AOL screwing things up! That's what they do best! And all to try and get themselves MORE $$$. I don't know why anyone even still continued as a paying AOL customer.. I know I sure stopped the second it became available for free. I think this is another way to try and get more people to pay for AOL.. like in order to really view profiles and such, we'll need to "upgrade" our version of AOL... WRONG. I will NEVER pay AOL another dime! AOL = AOHELL! AOL SUX!!! Anyone here actually SURPRISED about this?? AOL screwing things up! That's what they do best! And all to try and get themselves MORE $$$.

AOL has taken everyone's hard work and erased it claiming all things will remain on the new system. It doesn't, they cut stuff out, made it so no one could see your information, and there are so many bugs if you want to add friends you can't. I guess they're going to wait the full three weeks of "fixing" the kinks before they decide to listen to the voice of their PAYING customers. Not a smart thing to send people away...but hey...I guess thats what their after...annoy their customers enough to send them packing. Do away with Bebo or at the very least make it a choice. I want my PROFILE back. The one I WORKED hard on. its a mess..its a problem where no problem existed before.

You can't get your old profile back like it claims and your can't IM on AOL if your signed into Bebo. If we wanted to be on myspace that is where we would be. This new thing does not work at all.
