I got a blog, tweet, or something a couple days ago that gave a coupon code to get 50% off of Berkhof's Systematic Theology, but lost the reference.

Does anybody remember the code?

    Forum guidelines prohibit putting coupon codes on the forum.

    However, if you look in your email for the July NewsWire, you should find it there.

    I'm unsure of the guidelines of posting a code, but anyhow someone posted it here.

    I'm unsure of the guidelines of posting a code,

    If you had clicked on the link of the message immediately above yours, you would be unsure:

    "Please
    abide by the following guidelines as you interact on our forums.

    1. Please keep your discussions focused on
      Logos Bible Software: our software, products, websites, company, tools,
      etc.
    2. Please do not discuss or debate biblical,
      theological, or other controversial topics. Use one of the many web
      forums intended

    3. Please treat each other with the love,

    4. Please do not use our forums to
      • sell or give away anything or link to anything you’re selling or
        giving away—including Logos products
      • promote
        or link to competitors
      • point
        people to other places that sell Logos-compatible products
      • advertise

    5. Please search before posting. It’s

    (highlighting mine). My personal opinion: it's not cool to provide a link to a violation of the forum guidelines - something I would not have mentioned had the rule not been mentioned immediately prior to your post. Because of your posting count, I suspect this is simply because you did not know the rules - now you do. Welcome to the forums and please, continue to assist other forum members.

    Can some help me to understand this? So we can link to any promotion Logos is running, the only exception being Logos Coupon codes. Is this a correct interpretation of the Forum guidelines?

    No.  You can link to coupon codes, but not copy them into your post.

    You can link to any promo Logos is doing, regardless of what is on the promo page.

    Just don't post the coupon codes on these forums.

    That's my understanding, at least.

    I understand it that coupon codes I get by email are just selective to some users who qualify to get them. On-line presented promo or coupons are for anybody so we can share them.

    EDIT: I mean to share the link to the promo (if there is a coupon there, anybody can get it there). Sharing coupon codes here is prohibited IMHO.

    Thanks Todd and Richard for the clarification. Link to the coupon code in the forum - okay. But don't post the codes on the Forum. I get it now. Blessings.

    And a further clarification, you can link to a page that has the coupon code only if that page was created/posted by Logos (e.g., on their blog). You shouldn't, for example, post a coupon code that you received in a private email from Logos on your own blog and then post here a link to your blog post. Direct marketing email coupon codes are for your eyes only, as they are sent to select individuals based on what they've bought already. Kind of a frequent buyers reward system, as I understand it.
