Read the rules. The only prohibition against PGX books is against listing them for sale. There is noting in the guidelines about posting a picture of a PGX book.

Isn't that sort of the same thing?

No, because people have posted PGX books before for discussion purposes, and I've never heard of one being removed unless it was posted in the sales thread.

taking things to the extreme around here. pretty soon there'll be a filter on those 3 letters.

What? P-X? ...... wait....... Oh no, it has begun!

[miraclemet]

the interpretation of the (I think unwritten) rules/guidelines about the board being used to "promote" competitors was never enforced because the competition (PgeeX) was laughable, so it wasn't a threat.

 

now there's potentially truly viable competition, and they dont want to see the new competition's books getting posted here, so they start enforcing the rule across the boards. No PgeeX, no anything...

My understanding was that you could post PGX books as long as you crop out the label, at least that is what I do.

It's a site run for and paid for by cgc. I know I wouldn't allow posting of a competitors "product"

Yeah, I'd say this is the position to start from. Given that, any stuff they allow is either missed or just leniency, and not to be taken as a norm.

That could be it. I posted a thread the other day in CG about how the existence of a competitor might affect the registry, and it got deep-sixed within minutes.
