Man's Rage magazine is now up and go!
Site full re-design is in place.
Now we are planning on advertising the thing, and politely soliciting advertisement as we begin work on Issue #2, release date to be July 1, 2014. Possibly earlier, but making sure no deadlines will be missed once this thing is in motion.
So, if you have stumbled across this magazine, and like it, please tell others of this. Word of mouth is the most valuable advertisement out there. Help us punch a black eye in that "Political Correctness" vampire out there!

------First impressions----
--------------------------
Well, after a few delays (creative issues, business ideas, research) Man's Rage #1 is finally launched!
The next issue is scheduled for July 1 and there should be a cover price of $5 - $7 depending on which sales package I decide on. Subsequent issues will be published every 3-4 months depending on content/logistics. Earlier issues will remain archived on the site for download/sale as long as this project is active. I reserve the right to modify/remove/replace/add adds to the first issue at will, though I'll probably leave it largely untouched and work out a new "Free" issue in two or three years.
---anyone will recommend a good online file selling site based on good experience email at angry@mansrage.com please!
The first issue of any publication is always "Clunky" a bit. Well, at least there's no arguing with the price, and I can even argue I'm - heh - 'environmental' since it's not printed in RL, just computer memory. This post is here to to politely ask my readers once they've read it to give their first impressions. Also feel free to email letters@mansrage.com - from here/email I reserve the right to print and publish any correspondence especially in our letters page!
As a final note I am seeking advertisers. Since the launch date was nebulous I avoided Ads in the launch issue. However, I am all for having ads. Its a simple balance in that Ads will help compensate those that contribute to this magazine (if I have a reporter write an article it is not to be for "Free" aka "Exposure ... doood... karmaaaaa" this isn't a "Zine"...) while a small cover price keeps us free of advertisers having power. If a mink coat maker wants to advertise his wares, but then PETA pays for an ad saying its mean, and letters say they like it or its mean... I'm for all of that. Free speech, free market, wide world, mmmkay? That, truly is the funny part, for I think I'll be attacked for among other things "intolerance" when I'm actually for a free, open society and am putting out a statement to end the delusions and false economies. Ads will mostly be between the stories, a few in side images in large blocks of text. I plan to keep the ads out of the feature story, but in between smaller articles and in larger news articles. Also the standard I have is "As long as its legal right now..." for instance check out the old Creepy (Warren Magazines), Men's Adventure mags, etc. scans for examples. I'm even looking through my copies/scans to find if some of those guys are still in business to solicit ads politely. Free market/let the buyer beware, no "We don't need that..." garbage the monopolized elitist PC puke media has.
So, please type your impressions of this magazine here and check back in 2 months for more work on the site and a preview of Issue #2! In the meantime, if you like it, please tell others of it. Word of mouth is often the best advertising out there.
Sincerely,
Ben.
Editor/Publisher Man's Rage Magazine
Man's Rage is launched! This is a re-hash of the first testing post, and the classic promotional image for the cover story.
Welcome to the "Official" Man's Rage blog. Later, if necessary, we'll expand to a discussion board or such. I thought this a nice enhancement to the main site, a place readers and fans and anti-fans could discuss the latest issues and developments.
The first post should be over the dreaded/despised "Rules".
1. I'm currently based in the USA, so any posts/links/ads have to be legal there.
2. Having said that, this isn't a "PC Family Friendly" or any of that garbage shit.
3. AD's are for the (upcoming) ad page, not "Check this out------" now I'd like to be able to post in other's blogs , so I don't care if you happen to sell something from your blog/links on your blog and post here, just be reasonable. "Mike's Cheap re-useable catheters" is you name or .sig, fine, but only post if you said "I Just read Max Feral's Death on the M'Kunga river and .... comments, discussion, etc." If you want to adv your product here/in the magazine, great, check for the rates/etc. I don't care if you sell "Cheep Vi----a" as long as you make an ad for it.
4. Netiquitte...
---Short form:
A - Sacred cows are to be ROASTED.
B - Precious Individual Snowflakes to be MELTED
C - Death, Death, DEATH to "Political Correctness!!!"
This site is a spit in the face of PC. Therefore I expect some words to fly. I'm pretty opinionated myself and have been banned from countless blogs on the right and left and just for stupid reasons by blog owners/webmasters who either hated me for disagreeing with their agenda or just listened to complaints from those I melted their precious, individual snowflake delusions... So, let the words fly and take it like a man. Obviously, I reserve the right to do what's necessary in case of flooding/spamming etc., but I can take and boy can I give. Call me a testicle dragging tyrannosaur, ye'll only rouse the reptile!
5.It's the "Man's Rage" blog so I reserve the right to edit as I see fit.
Otherwise, no rules less I think of 'em and I want to avoid that! Just want announcements on upcoming issues, welcome discussion on articles/products, etc. as I post.
