Eh, wrong. I’ve had AOL for … 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 years now and started with 3.0. They had buddy lists then. Trust.
I don’t understand why this is such a big predicament for everyone–it’s getting out of hand and almost funny. Although–I’ll be honest–I haven’t read most of the replies/threads, ever since I can remember, I’ve been able to access my buddy list preferences. In turn, this means ever since I can remember, 1) I could block all aol and AIM users (nobody could see me on their buddy list) and 2) I could write emails while blocking. Period.
