Pros: Boards are easy and fun to use...you meet so many great people Cons: Loony ladies dropping by every so often ;)
I know in earlier opinions I've snarked about the low quality of America Online's community, and I stand by my words. But one place where I think AOL really shines is on their message boards. AOL's boards have the potential to connect--and forever...
I've found AOL message boards to be the best of all other message boards.
With one click, you can have access to all the posts of other members in that topic. Every message board is categorized with different topics in different pages so that it...
Pros: Clean, easy to use Cons: system response problems
AOL has inherent problems. I really don't believe that they are any worse than other isps and web sites. Of course, AOL is working fine today. (knocking furiously on wood.) Ask me tomorrow when I am ready to bang my head against the keyboard in system...
Pros: Lots of information, valuable tips Cons: Spam from having name harvested from boards, system not responding errors
I have a love/hate relationship with AOL message boards. Having been on AOL for 4 years the message boards were the one thing I hated to let go when leaving. I have gained a vast amount of information and knowledge from them and even started into a new...
Okay Okay, I have been reading everyone's opinion about the BEST board on AOL and ANYONE that goes to the Tightwad Board: Open Discussion **KNOWS** what I am about to say.....
I started reading the TW Board in July of 97 when I had gotten...
One of my favorite things about AOL is the message boards. I found the boards after being online a few weeks and I have never left! You can find a huge variety of boards available.
The posters within the boards become as close as friends that...
Pros: Great Reading, Fun, Entertaining Cons: Can be slow at times
How Message Boards Work
America Online (AOL) is a community of people talking to people. The message boards on AOL offer a great way to gather information and share the experiences of others with similar interests. I...
Pros: So many to choose from, chance to meet new people Cons: debates, and rude encounters
When I first became an AOL member almost 4 years ago, I had no idea of all that AOL would become, but I did discover what still to this day continues to be one of my favorite things about the service, the message boards. Where else can you meet hundreds...
I have been on aol for about 3 years and when i found out i was pregnant with my 3rd child, i happened to stummble across aol message boards. I have no idea how or why. I think someone "ABOVE" was watching over me and knew i needed a lot of...
Pros: Great people, good ideas for some activities Cons: Run slow (AOL), hard to find posts
AOL does have one feature that makes it worthwhile...Message Boards. My first message board was Freebies-Mom's Online. I love that board; it helped me save tons of money for Christmas and since then, as well. Then, I ran across the Tightwad Boards. ...
Pros: The common interests that bring you there develop great friendships Cons: Dishonest people who post.
I was put on bedrest when I was 32 weeks pregnant with my second son. After about a week, I was ready to pull my hair out. I wasn't much for getting online other than to check email and one day out of boredom, I came across AOL's PARENT SOUP. I found...
AOL's message boards are the only reason I'm still sending them $9.95 per month. I started 3 years ago with AOL-I really liked the idea of having everything I needed all in one place.
In the last year or so, however, I've become more and more...
I wholly agree with this opinion. I am a board addict not only with aol but with parent soup online! I have met some very wonderful people on the boards and I dont know what I would do without them! These women mean more to me than some of my true life...
