Unsubscribed in Logos-language means you WANT emails.
What can I say? 'Pride goesth before the fallen.' (or something like that).
I happily bragged that MY email inbox hadn't seen a marketing email in years! Those unchecked email-subscribes where POWERFUL. Almost like a magic spell.
But today, the prideful fell.
It was a CP I already bid on (with a successful price). So I canceled the CP. Best to let pride get in the way of common sense.
I really wonder what language Logos staff speaks. It's like the Logos motto 'fire someone today' got translated into 'fire a customer today'.
Oh, well. At least I still have my pride.

it is one of the most misquoted verses in the Bible:
Proverbs 16:18 Pride goeth before destruction,
And an haughty spirit before a fall.other than that, I totally agree with you: "unsubscribe" on Logos site does not mean a thing. have had a problem with their marketing emails arriving despite everything being unchecked.for a very long time. I finally gave in and signed up for a few to qualify for a promotion. I figured, they are coming anyway, might as well get something in return.

Thank you toughski! I plan to check up on that word 'destruction' too (Dahood/Ugarit).
