Yes and no, exactly like the casinos sometimes do
Actually, casinos do not talk to eachother very much unless they are sister properties.
Sometimes with the use of a third party like Griffin they might blast a player but be sure that if they have a big fish at Belaggio, no one in management there is calling Caesars and telling them about their windfall loser.
In the same way, I feel I can share information about bad games and things casinos do that might abuse or take advantage of players but also in the same way, why would I share information on a game that I can milk for big bucks, risk the casino finding out their mistake or risk other advantage players coming in and killing the game.

The Golden Rule
Why would I tell another AP about an opportunity? Because I would want another AP to tell me about an opportunity. That alone is a sufficient reason, in my ethos. If I tell you about mine and you tell me about yours, we both have two games to exploit then, right?
But that doesn't apply to an opportunity that would be destroyed by telling someone else about it. You want to share special info only with those who won't trash it. I'd say sharing with people with a similar betting level and experience level is a good place to start. Obviously that can't happen on a public forum.

good games or promotions
There have been times where a casino has had a very good game or great promotion where perhaps they did not figure the math very well or knew the math but also knew that their average player did not have the example to exploit it.
Instead of this promotion serving as a bonus or incentive to lure their average player, word gets out in the AP community and imagine the casino reaction if they either get taken for big money overall or just look around and think they are suddenly running a convention for cardcounters. It would not be the first promotion cancelled, mid-promotion.
Also, information listed here on a public board might make the casino aware of a mistake they made in their promotion or just scare them into cancelling. Worse yet, get photos of everyone who shows up and then cancel the deal.
Private sharing for something in return with responsible people or sharing because you like someone but warning them to keep it quiet is fine and I do it but public sharing on a board like this is dangerous.

Overly myopic?
Let's not get too focused on just the card counting aspect of the gentlman's question here guys. Although you all are certainly correct about over-sharing info about technicalities of a paticular game, he did in fact suggest the sharing of other conditions as well, viz.room deals, accomodations, food quality as well as perhaps comp promos. I see nothing wrong with expounding on those aspects of his query.
