Title: Why are ppl so ignorant and stubborn when it comes to dice and referrals???
Post by: yahoo62278 on December 08, 2015, 01:49:36 AM
You guys are probably seeing this title and thinking im talking about spamming referrals but in fact i am not. I personally have offered 50/50 affiliate/referral cuts a couple times and havent had many ppl take me up on the offer and im having a hard time understanding why? Its surely not a trust issue on whether i will pay you or not cause lets face it, im pretty trusted on this forum.

If youre already gonna be playing dice anyways, why wouldnt you want to make some extra money? I just dont get it. Its like some of you people are saying i dont want any free money? Why the hell not? You are gambling to make money, why would you not want to make even more from the bets youre already placing?

Whales puzzle me even more cause they have the best shot at large money. Im willing to make better deals for whales if anyone take me up on a split. Ok im offering again PM me if you want to be on my referral list. I will give you my link. TAKE THE FREE MONEY GUYS

i think its more of a psychological thing; as most of the people on here are children mentally, they probably think of signing up under your referral as 'working under you' or something to that effect, and can't handle that thought of being inferior by being referred as to being the referrer or something. some people are pretty stupid here ya know. id take you up on the offer personally, but i dont touch dice for obvious reasons.

Thats quite possible man. It just puzzels me with the excuses i hear personally.

Today i got this excuse"im too lazy to make a new account" Are you kidding me??? You dont want free money for 2 minutes of your time?

I used to advertise faucets in my signature and 50/50 splits. Only had 7 people over 6 months sign up for freebitco.in

Funny to see people click it though. Had like 150 clicks.


People are just weird like that. I had a really interesting talk with a guy wanted to reverse bid on referrals.
People also are trying to look in their favor I guess, because the guy didn't instantly accept my 50/50 offer.

I've watched people click my links for other sites, and I agree, there are tons of clicks but there are almost no signups from those clicks.

Referral bidding is certainly an... interesting(?) way to make money, but how do people actually earn money from using referral bidding, aside from the initial bid? How long do they operate for? Is it just until they get bored or get the equivalent of what they were paid, or are they locked into it? I see that, in the thread you mentioned, the guy said he is "active" with the program, but doesn't give much information aside from that.

And how is referral bidding, in your experience? Is it something worth getting into, or is it a fairly trivial thing to do?

it makes sense but same ip accounts will be deleted or blocked in some sites, unless u use vpn with other accounts.

I don't think this is legal or allowed on most casino's cause you are not referring people who are not known to it and earning from their wager which is also not known.But here you are making an agreement and sharing the profits, it would be same as self-referreral.
Either ways this won't work if both the player's know what provably fair is .

I think what your asking to do is illegal thing. But still your blaming people not following your illegal activities. To get referrals you need to review the site properly to motivate people to join under you but not by begging or cheating site.

Highrollers are not interested in affiliate cuts generally because the amounts they get back seem to be significantly smaller to them and not worth the effort.

If a highroller wagers 1000BTC on a dice site, he would likely win a lot or lose a lot.
If he does take the time to sign up using the link you give, he would be gaining 1000BTC * 1% * 10% * 50% = 0.5BTC.

Suppose he loses all his bankroll what is he going to do with 0.5BTC?
Suppose he wins a few hundred bitcoins, does it actually make a difference?


This is why highrollers tend to stick to 1% flat edge sites and does not leave to other sites like say Betterbets (which has a rakeback system) or Rollin (which has a levelling system and weekly wagered prizes). So they tend to stick with the site they are comfortable with which is why Primedice remains the market leader by large.


Another way of understanding it is, let us divide people into two, one who actually prefers a 0.7% house edge over 1% etc. and the one who is not. Highrollers beyond doubt falls into the latter category. The former consists of people ideally wouldn't bet in the first place because it is negative EV.

tl;dr Highrollers are generally insensitive to variations in (effective) house edge (to a level).


thats what I think.

The guy completely died off after 5 months. I had him hooked into the freedoge and had done small advance payments but after progress stopped.I stopped paying out.

Referral bidding is an interesting concept. This was one of the only cases I saw it, so I tried it.

The real question actually is are you refering to your own site or just a "site". If you are offering a "rakeback" on your own website then it is a really good deal. If you have a MP app and as a app owner you pay back 50% of what you get to the user. No reason why not to take it.

If you are speaking about other websites and them joining through your affiliate link. And then you give them 50% of what you make, then it is bottom line retarded. They just make their own referral accounts and play on those. Why settle for 50% when you can get 100%

Most people don't like referrals, as it's a psychological thing. They do these moneymaking things so they can make money, if they know that there is a referral system that makes people earn without them working, they get jealous and don't want to help other people.

I haven't seen any stubbornness against dice sites; I think they're the most accepted type of gambling on this forum, to be honest.

I think it's the same psychological thing as faucet referrals.
They're just jealous that other people can get money from them when they bet (or when claim from a faucet), leading them to feel that it's unfair, as the affiliate system is making the referrer some money without doing him/her anything. I personally don't mind getting reffed, as it doesn't affect what I earn.

well actually referrals is a win win situation for both but somehow those who always wan to sign up decided not to use the referral. one gd reason is that i dont know you so i dont have the need to benefit you. i got the link and i have no responsibilty to sign under you. unless u offer some attractive prizes like what some of u did.

read this posting again and again because this is the right answer

I still don't understand why players are wagering on a dice site with HE of 1% when there are sites offering 0.1% HE  ??? the game is the same right?

edit: also Katerniko1 answer was correct that they will refer themselves

It is because once someone loves the site then he will keep coming back to play. Only a few people understand about HE , provably fair and the other. The rest just love the site, that is why PD got lot more player since they started way back even there are lot of sites that offer less HE now

I don't like to sign up under any referral links because one cannot profit by being your referral and I'd rather self referral because one can profit more through self referral. To be honest, I do this on some website. :)

I do the same as you do. instead of getting 50% from being someone else's referral i be my own referral and get 100%. yahoo you can get lot of referrals if you host some contest like person who bet x amount will get x prize?

I do the same thing on some places. And I`m already a member almost everywhere. How I can register now under someones referall.
I also think that lot of people wish to have their own referrals. I was thinking how to have it also, even to suggest some bonus from me in beggining ( not just sharing their profit). I try with few people I know on fb but nothing. So like many others I believe, I play also for myelf where it is possible.

That can be the reason but when they are losing too much there, will they ever comeback again? What I know primedice is a oldest site that have a really trustworthy thats why most people are going there and most of them already stick around there. Some people are not even want to try the new site because they scare that will be some error to the script or something bad will happened. This is what I thought so far

thats what I think.

your answer is totally correct cause whales don't care and they afraid to meet scammers, they will feel unhappy if their uplines won't pay them, it is one reason imo.

the other reason i cam up with is that nobody or a few guy is willing to be referrals cause they don't wanna let other people get free money, like me, i never wanna anyone makes money from my losses, i would feel my uplines wanna me lose money, feel weird.

Not necessarily. Almost all the highrollers I ever got a chance to talk to know well about house edge, provably fair. Some are also deep into Bitcoin and its technical stuff. (I agree with the rest)


A typical highroller (not everyone of course. Only meaning many highrollers who repeatedly plays over significant a period of time) values trustworthiness, simplicity much more than a lower house edge. But they do see that the house edge is reasonable and they stick to what they are comfortable with and come back to where they had no issues since there have been scams and rogue sites around for years.

They believe luck is far more significant. They could profit much much more than what they would make from referral systems if the luck is on their side. (you can see that if someone gives weight to math etc. more than luck, he wouldn't play in the first place)

Will you do that forever, and on what sites?
