Am I allowed to ask for help progamming on other boards?

Being that the license says i can not show the source code to anyone who does not own torque, does that mean I am restricted to the torque forums when I need programming help?
Forexample, if i was having a problem with something in a derived class, or a function that makes use of some torque specific data types, does that mean I am not allowed to post and ask questions on my 'regular' board, where only a few people have torque licenses?
(I was telling them i bought torque and somebody brought this up, so I wanted to post here and see if he's right about that. and i did not post any source there.... i've been posting on the private forums here)

As far as I know, you can't talk about torques code at all but what you could do if you are having a problem with something, they create a simple example and then ask the question with your own code. Ben

you cannot however show code example from the sdk.
so this means you can discuss your problem area and logic.
you cannot reveal the implementation details.

and to expand on what types of problems, I mean generic programming problems, problems implementing oop, or an algorithm, if(x=y) but couldn't find it, stuff like that. obviously anything related to the engine code would be best asked here on the private forum.
