Not everything could fit...If Admin made it too long, no one would read the whole thing. The main points are in there.

Yeah.....on ICM we try and keep the focus on cannabis and not get embroiled in all the dope-opera/gossip, flaming and rumour surrounding the persons/entities who may or may not be involved with it.....

If you are in doubt as to what might be allowed here or not allowed then consult the TOU (Terms of Use)......it's at the top of the Announcements forum ......


well said......the root of ALL evil......

AND ....YES.....as Kharmagirl said REREAD the NEW....UPDATED......TOU.........very enlightening..........

So you open a business and provide free advertising for the competition then and come back....

real bitch move

What the real bitch move is people coming on here and advertising their gear under the guise of a smoke report. Gypsy pays for his advertising ... if the bitches want to advertise let them pay for their own.
( I only used the word bitch because the other poster did)

8b. Any variety of cannabis can be entered for inclusion in the IC Strain Guide and/or Grow Report section of the Strain Guide. However, posting in the forums outside of these parameters are subject to deletion as Spam.


***********************************

Don't mean to be a buzzkill or start any type of conflict but are you serious?

Does this mean that we cannot discuss types of strains or marijuana related products unless they are advertised by this site owner or we could be banned?

Am I missing something here?

Is this mainly to prevent people from using this site to 'freely' advertise their own stuff?
If this is the case then I can completely understand, otherwise most of the members are guilty since it would be nearly impossible to discuss any type of grow operation without referring to types of strains and products used.

That is covered in TOU #8a + b

8a + 8b seem to conflict a little or maybe I'm just a bit slow today.
Babba's quote would seem to suggest that not any strain can be included in the reports/strain guide as does 8a, 8b would seem to suggest the opposite.

So are we permitted to do a report/diary of a strain form vendors who do not advertise here or not?

i'm confused about this too

maybe i'm dense, but i'm thinking i need to just not say what strain i'm growing or something when i update the journal or chime in in the beer cup challenge thread or something?

just be as vague as possible, not mention where it's from or anything. but then what if we are vague, like just the region, "i'm growing oaxacan" but then none of the seeds being sold are oaxacan so they could know anyways?

reading too much into it maybe?

If you check my profile you'll see a couple of pictures of seeds grown that I got from a competitor. I've assumed that as long as I don't mention the seed seller that that much is OK. If I'm mistaken I'd hope a moderater would let me know and I'll remove even that much info. I don't post many pics of my show but got sick of people saying my posts didn't mean anything if I didn't have pictures of my plants in my profile. I really doubt ICMag is picking up more than a marginal increase in sales by not letting people talk about competitors but it is their site. It's just too easy to find all the other vendors. I think that the powers that be here at ICMag should watch "A Miracle on 34th Street" because Santa has an idea that would benefit this site.
