Title: What is the moderation policy for Gambling section?
Post by: 100bitcoin on October 17, 2019, 12:41:05 AM
There are many alt coin games being announced and discussed in Gambling (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=56.0) section. What is the moderation policy regarding this? Should they be allowed to stay there or be reported to move to Altcoin Discussion (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=67.0)?

My understanding is if they offer bitcoin on their platform, they are good to go. If they offer only altcoin options, they have to announce in the altcoin section. Same way the services section works.

Isn't everything allowed in Gambling as long as its main topic is websites that want to promote their gambling site? If its a site that promotes gambling using altcoin then I suppose it's free to do so but if it is topics about altcoin discussion itself, then they should proceed to the altcoin discussion part of the forum.

There is no any dedicated board for Altcoin gambling sites. So usually all gambling related topic should be made on Gambling section. Gambling related topic on altcoin section would consider off topic. On the other hand most of gambling sites launching with multiple coins  including bitcoin. If someone want to make gambling ANN thread just with fiat currency then where it should move? There is no board only for fiat discussion. So its quite reasonable to make post all gambling stuff on Gambling board.

the altcoin subforum has "service announcements" and "service discussion" boards. if a casino or betting site doesn't support bitcoin payments, that's where discussion about them belongs.

Not all gambling sites are allowed in the gambling section.If you see one that only accepts altcoins you should report it i've been reporting these kind of threads before they're usually marked as good and will be moved to service announcement (altcoin).

If they don't use bitcoin then they don't belong there. Report them to be moved to the alt coin section.
