Consider talking to your tax preparer and researching about your tax responsibility.

What does "age of majority (sometimes abbreviated as AoM+) in your state or province" mean?
The age of majority is the threshold of adulthood as it is conceptualized in law. It is the chronological moment when children legally assume majority control over their persons and their actions and decisions, thereby terminating the legal control and legal responsibilities of their parents over and for them.
http://en.wikipedia.or
In most U.S. states, the age of majority is 18, except for Nebraska and Alabama (19), and Mississippi (21). The age of majority in American Samoa and Puerto Rico is 14.

Missing prizes

Occasionally, a less than ethical sweep will get posted. You might end up finding unauthorized charges on your phone bill. This is called "cramming". Once you contact the company that's charging you, and you have requested your phone company remove the charge, you can file a complaint with the FCC.

Just a general question about how the forum operates....what exactly constitutes "bad content" in the thumbs voting scheme?
More specifically, I have posted 4 or 5 sweeps here and they have been well-received for the most part, but I also noticed a few thumbs down for bad content. When a I see a thumbs down, I go back and check the site rules to make sure I didn't miss anything that would indicate a scam or something. I do this at first, but don't discount that I could miss something. Anyway, I don't see any red flags when I go back. Take the case of the Star Trek autograph cast photo sweep I posted yesterday. I saw two "bad content" votes and I can't see the problem with it. The FB site is the official Star Trek site with 1.9 million fans....so it's not a scam site. The entry is pretty painless with a single shot instead of daily hoops to jump through. What's bad about that?
Still trying to get my bearings here at SD.....

No clue what your situation was about...sometimes people here are just rather rude.
Edit: hmmm perhaps, its about unrealistic retail value on the item in question.

Now that I am curious about this system, I went checked other poster's sweeps and noticed the same thing. Good solid sweeps, no scam, good prizes, easy entry, etc....and always someone turning up their nose at it. Weird....

Think something is a scam, say so...think something isn't intended for sweepers as its private contest say so.
There is at least one (and probably more) "ninja thumbs-downer" who routinely blows through the C&S forum, giving a TD to every single thread - all legit sweeps that people have taken time finding & put effort into sharing with the SD community. Used to bug me when I first started posting sweeps, but don't let it get to me anymore.
Just ignore the jerks who seem to get a cheap thrill giving a thread a TD & use your own judgement as to whether you'll enter a sweeps or not. If you're unsure, won't hurt anything to post your questions/doubts here & get some advice from more experienced sweepers.
Have fun & good luck sweeping!
As for chronic down-thumbing.....that's a good way to get yourself banned. Each of those clicks are recorded and easily searchable in the database with a simple query.

Really really cool service, they send you alerts letting you know when something ships to you. But better then that, sweepers often don't know about packages because senders don't tell them. This lets you know when lazy judging agencies don't tell you you are a winner.
Thought I would mention this here, as its a FREE service many of us could us.

Doubt anyone gets banned for that, its within the rules of the site to be a critic.
