   Does anyone else out there hate Yahoo, especially Geocities? Their ads are relentless, customer service is non-existant, and replies to complaint and help emails are useless and written from a template! Does anyone agree/disagree with me, or am I alone on this subject?

I disagree. I do not hate Yahoo. I admire them.

Customer support costs money, and it costs a LOT of money to do well. That they can give you any at all for a free to you service, for an advertiser supported service, and still make money is nothing short of miraculous, and therefore admirable.

But I suspect you are not alone in complaining about something that’s free (except for the time you spend reading ads).

What the hell is this, a Yahoo PR statement? Looks like the same crap I get when I make a comment to Yahoo about themselves. You work for Yahoo or something? You obviously have never had a site, free or not, hosted by Geocities.
