Not really. It's quite simple. It would be bad business to allow even the slightest advertisement of competing products on here, a public showcase which anybody can see.

Even this could be classed as advertisement and potential customer loss:

Bill: Hey, have you played WoW yet?
Ted: No, I like Graal.
Bill: WoW is way better, dude. <screenshot>
Ted: Wow, I might just leave Graal for WoW! Thanks Bill!
Bill: No problem Ted and remember children, the allowance of advertisement on a product's side-service is BAD BUSINESS and holds the risk of POTENTIAL CUSTOMER LOSS!
