I'm just pointing out what I thought was obvious... If you think it's okay, that's fine. But just know what you're doing. This isn't just a free offer for everyone to use. It's exploitation.
In this particular case, I can't see how the free bag of candy for answering a survey is any different.

So you're saying we're all thieves? I'm willing to bet we would have a better chance of charging you with slander than for them to charge us with theft... because this isn't theft.

To steal means to take without the owner's consent. We are merely making an application to receive magazines. It is up to the company to decide whether they would like to approve the application. If they do, then we are no longer taking anything without their consent. If they don't, then they don't.

A year subscription isnt exactly expensive. I remember when I had one it was like less than $20 or something for the year. If you buy them @ the magazine stores, yes it's expensive @ $7 each.

1) I didn't create Fembot
2) It is looking out for "fellow RS peeps". Without the ads and Adbot, the servers would still not be paid for.

People here love to take shit for granted, and on top of that will jump on the opportunity to exploit peoples' oversights and mistakes in order to get $20 or even $1 of free shit. It's pathetic.

I would have suggested maybe adding a suite number to one or both addresses...

Like even if you live in a house, just add Suite #1 and Suite #4 to the address...

For those that want to check the status of your order...

You can go to www.maxim.com and click on the "Renew Subscriptions" link, which will take you here:

After you enter your postal code and the email address you signed up with, you should see something like this:

Nice!!!! Btw skinny pup, maxims intention was probably to provide this as a sample. They are expecting about maybe 5% of everyone continue and renew their subscription. In other words... Through us "stealing" they get more circulation. I guess that's enough to make a good $ in their pockets
