We have been told the reason for this decision is that our website has not produced royalties for Paizo.

Zagorath Yeah, this is some incredibly poor PR, right down to the vague finger-pointing at the AoN folks for publishing the information. But it's also the kind of head-scratching, short-sighted decision people make when under a lot of pressure, so I understand why Paizo's doing this.

They're wrong, and they just burned a ton of good will for the sake of a few bucks in lawyers fees, but I get it. Actually actively defending the choice is a fun kind of bootlicking, though, and has my days of not taking the Pathfinder communities on those platforms seriously coming to a middle.
