Be honest too, is this topic not related to gambling discussion board? How come is this an off-topic on gambling if it’s all about gambling. Even if the discussion is just a repetition of other topic, this is common even on Bitcoin discussion board and others especially price speculation.

Oh my bad, then it should have gone just like the rest in the trashcan!
And thanks for acknowledging we have too many of that spam-infected topics that led absolutely nowhere!


Haha, Honestly, yeah there's a lot of this issue all over the forum that's why I'm just curious why the gambling board is singling out this recent aggressive action towards repetitive topics.

I want to hear from mods about the proper guidelines for creating a new topic in the gambling board to avoid contributing to spam because gambling topics are just repeating. Still, the variation of user experience is what makes it unique for discussion.

gambling's complicated. Believe me, I've seen the best and worst of it. Some call it addictive, and they've got a point. Get hung up on past bets, and you're in trouble. Thats when the house always wins. But its not just luck, not about some magic skill. Success, in gambling and in life, comes down to strategy. Understanding yourself. Your limits, your mind. Thats what separates winners from, well, lets just say its a big difference.


Sounds like reading an AI post due to the tone of your statement and lot of sweet words to make the statement longer while it just describing a very simple statement about simply accepting losses.

Quote
But above all, be responsible. Thats the winning play, I guarantee it.

At least you have the most sensible advice in the end of your statement. At the end of the day, being responsible gambler will make you a winner because you limit your losses or secure profit while having fun on gambling. This is the only way to really enjoy gambling to the fullest without inflicting harm to yourself in both financially and emotionally when you experience loss.

..

i just play the BK8 Gates Of Olympus and buy a a few freespins bonus but sadly from 10 bonus that i buy and the only profit 2 bonus but the payout only around 1.4~2x
btw i play that BK8 gates of olympus because i saw the rtp is higher than the regular gates

Don’t be surprised since Pragmatic max win is very hard to hit these days even with their games that has a x2.5K max multiplier. The pros on this slot game provider is they give a good portion of your buy bonus cost unlike other slot games provider that is too brutal with their game volatility.

You can even win nothing when you purchase free spin that is worth x500 spin on game provider like Hacksaw, Push Gaming and Nolimit.

Btw there is a very interesting event that ends soon. You are able to wn 500 $SOL by collecing points and rules are very simple, I'll quote it from their Twitter.
Quote
🏆Move SOL to your MetaWin balance.

🎲Gain 1 point for every 1 SOL moved in (Max 30).
  
🥊Lose 1 point for every SOL withdrawn before April 7th.
 
🍀GET Bonus points for every SOL played.

10 x 50 SOL Closes April 7th

Twitter link - https://twitter.com/Meta_Winners/status/1776733945838604494



A very good move by Metawin considering how hot and trending Solana ecosystem right now. Users will be interested to deposit since the mechanics is very simple and doesn’t need any wagering requirements(except to the deposit wagering requirements) to win the contest.

Metawin is always generous with all their contest while having a very straightforward rules unlike other casino that usually involves a terrible wagering war just to secure a spot which means inflicting loses is highly probable while wagering.

I hope next time this event will be on Bitcoin since Bitcoin community is much larger than Solana. I will not be surprised if this mechanics of giveaways will be copied by other casino because this will promote holding to specific tokens.

the people who keep complaining about anything should check themselves
lol
complaining leads us to no other place than misery and bad vibes.
and if you're here for so long you know that vibes matter.

to have good results as a gambler you probably need accoountability, knowing when to stop and emotional awareness.

I usually complain when I lose my bet but only on that specific time and not all throughout my day after I lose. This is entertainment we are getting on gambling, we lose some and we win some. Most important thing is the experience even the losses it helps us to appreciate more when we win.

Sometimes winning just a mere 100$ for a day of gambling is almost special to us because we lose big time in the past so experiencing a little bit of win can be easily appreciated since we know how hard to win.

This is the part which I’m confused, before this kind of topic was allowed because there’s still a lot of old thread that is same with this discussion. I believe last week some mods put a lot of gambling thread on off-topic that’s why I’m curious if something is changed on the gambling discussion board rules.
IMO threads about gambling addiction should either stay in the gambling section or get merged if they're essentially the same, not moved to Off-Topic.  General gambling topics and those about problem gambling go hand in hand, so it's kind of a no-brainer.

Plus I've seen so, sooooo many "Bitcoin or gold" threads in Bitcoin Discussion over the years, and those seemingly never get moved, merged, or trashcanned.  I've always thought any new thread with a title like that should be deleted by the mods on sight, and unfortunately I don't have the power to do it myself (lol).

Thanks for a valuable opinion about this topic. I notice many repetitive thread not only on Bitcoin board but also on altcoins and other boards in the forum but none of them move to off-topic no matter how useless it is anymore.

I saw new topic on gambling discussion that might move to off-topic later since it’s almost the same to the recent topic that moved. Maybe some user is still not aware about this changes.

169  Economy / Gambling / Re: What do you want to ask BCH.Games team? | Leave Your Questions on: April 07, 2024, 01:36:07 PM
First time to heard this casino but I think I saw this before here in the forum.

If I will have a question on this casino, Are they planning to expand their casino by adding 3rd party games such as slot and sportsbook which is very popular these days.

I’m curious too if original games like what they are offering is still profitable? I’m surprised that the chat box is very lively considering this games is very common in almost all casino nowadays. How they manage to attract this players to play on their games.
170  Other / Meta / Re: Is gambling problem or anything related to addiction is an off-topic? on: April 07, 2024, 05:11:00 AM
I have a suggestion regarding this issue, Instead of moving it to the off-topic board which is not the best place to discuss this topic no matter how low the quality because it's still on-topic to the board.

Again, I'm asking you to be honest!
The only real problem with the topic being off-topic is that CM don't pay for a post in off-topic!
Nobody is stopping people from commenting there, but they don't because they don't give a f-word about something they are not getting paid for.



With all due respect and honesty. My statement is about clarifying about the current general rules on gambling discussion board.

Be honest too, is this topic not related to gambling discussion board? How come is this an off-topic on gambling if it’s all about gambling. Even if the discussion is just a repetition of other topic, this is common even on Bitcoin discussion board and others especially price speculation.

If the mods preferred sports discussion and other specific then “gambling discussion” board descriptions should be specific. This is for reference on the future post as guidelines. I’m not even asking to move those off topic thread back on gambling discussion board.

at least there have been old post or topic that speaks about gambling addiction why not raise and activate those topic back so that we can continue the discussion over there than creating same topic and repeating discussions. To my notice Gambling addictions comes in every single day up-to 2 and above, so this might get them take that decision to move most of the topics to off-topic. Bet me or not, try create a newer topic that doesn't related to gambling addiction and you will have it stick there.

Those old topic is already locked or you might necro bump a topic that is too old. The best solution here is to provide a separate child board or one general thread for this kind of topic if mods doesn’t preferred discussion like this.

171  Economy / Gambling / Re: ✨ Shuffle.com | The next generation of crypto casinos | Sports, Casino + token on: April 06, 2024, 04:57:01 PM
But I like the token system which is locked by shuffle, we can claim it every few days so we can play there even if we don't make a deposit. I had pretty good luck a few days ago but I was greedy so my balance ran out again on the slot machine. lol

What makes it amazing more is you can speed up the unlock process through wagering and at the same time get a rakeback from the instant, weekly and monthly bonus as the VIP rewards.

The price of SHFL tokens seems stable now at 0.2$ level which is extreme low considering how low the current circulating supply. This will makes the token burn more in terms of SHFL quantity because the token burn amount budget is on USD value. I believe this is the perfect price level to accumulate more of this tokens.
172  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What is a best way of taking advantage of BTC dips when away? on: April 06, 2024, 03:44:10 PM
Why do you need some bot? You can simply just set up limit orders on exchanges so your exchange account automatically buys when BTC's price reaches a certain price. Most half-decent centralized exchanges have a limit order feature; unless you're trading P2P.

His problem will be solved easily if he will use CEX but he mention specifically that he doesn’t want to use CEX due to the danger of closure of exchange once he far away when he leave his funds in the exchange for the limit orders.

His other option is to use bot that can be integrated on decentralized exchange such as Bisq. But I’m not sure if there’s available bot in the market right now because there’s no demand for this due to CEX which can be use as an easy fix to solve OP dilemma.

174  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it right to advice other people against gambling for personal reasons like?? on: April 06, 2024, 03:12:47 PM
What do you make of this, I honestly do not know but deep inside of me, I feel it's absolutely wrong to advice people against doing something, just because you did the same thing and it did not favor you..


As a gambler myself, I don’t think it’s wrong to discourage everyone to gamble especially if he has a proof of outcome with his life experience. There’s a high chance that someone will suffer same fate in the other side of the world because gambling is always the root of being greedy.

Quote
Do you guys think it's OK to advice other gamblers to quit gambling simply because of your own bad experience, does your bad experience mean that every other gambler out there will also have the same bad experience?
I will like some really useful discussions around this topic.

Yes for me, gambling is a source of entertainment that usually requires spending money for fun. Advising to quit is good for me if the person who will receive an advice doesn’t know how to play as a responsible gambler. It’s a case to case basis but there’s no harm on what he is doing.
175  Other / Meta / Re: Is gambling problem or anything related to addiction is an off-topic? on: April 06, 2024, 12:03:56 PM
Another topic that moved to off-topic despite the discussion is all about gambling.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5487686.0


I have a suggestion regarding this issue, Instead of moving it to the off-topic board which is not the best place to discuss this topic no matter how low the quality because it's still on-topic to the board.

What if we dedicated another child board to the gambling section for this kind of discussion for gambling addiction and other gambling problems should be discussed there while maintaining the gambling discussion board for sports, strategy and other stuff related to gambling gameplay?

Is this a viable solution sir @hilariousandco?

Stop creating valueless topics, you will have less topics to be moved to Off-topic board.

1. No zero or low value, pointless or uninteresting posts or threads. [1][e]


This is very subjective to me either. Aside from sports discussion, gambling addiction or gambling problems will always be part of gambling.

My topic is about experience sharing on how gambling addiction start to each gambler we have different cases due to our gameplay. I personally value opinions on gambling it’s the way we share our hardships on gambling as fellow gambler.
178  Other / Meta / Re: Is gambling problem or anything related to addiction is an off-topic? on: April 05, 2024, 02:47:15 PM
It is possible that some moderators are bored already as they see more topics to be about gambling discussion.

This is the part which I’m confused, before this kind of topic was allowed because there’s still a lot of old thread that is same with this discussion. I believe last week some mods put a lot of gambling thread on off-topic that’s why I’m curious if something is changed on the gambling discussion board rules.

I understand the part that it’s already boring sometimes but there’s a time that the topic is situational that makes it unique than other related thread.

Quote
But in my opinion, I think gambling addiction threads should be on gambling discussion. It is one if the benefits we have on the gambling discussion board for people to avoid gambling addiction.

I totally agree on this. I use gambling discussion thread to vent all my feelings about gambling that I can express in real life due to my family cuture that doesn’t approve gambling as source of entertainment.

Maybe the mods want to see core gambling topics that discusses guides, tips, how tos, reports in sports betting, casino games and other gambling subjects.

This is exactly what I want to know. What’s the mod preference so that we will be informed the next time we create a topic. Because even sports discussions is just repeating and the only difference is the team involved but the gameplay is usually have same pattern.

Hello.
We run a lot of bounty campaigns and most of them are escrow - which we always indicate in the announcement and rules of the bounty campaign. When payments are made by the project itself (project team) we notify participants in our telegram chat that the project team will distribute the awards




As the bounty manager, your role is to secure payment of participants because you are the one launching it here and not the team. Bounty hunters is joining because “you” are the one managing it and not the team.

There’s already tons of scam bounty in the past which you are aware and many bounty manager got tagged because they failed to protect their bounty participants. I hope that you will always escrow the payment to protect you and participants because a team that can’t give partial payment is obviously not willing to pay in the end especially of the result of the campaign is not that good.

Recently my thread related to sign of early gambling addiction thread was moved to off-topic. I’m not questioning the mods decision but I want to clarify what’s real rules on what should be on topic discussion on gambling discussion board.

This kind of topic was allowed before since addiction is a huge part of gambling in general. I just want to know what’s the real stand of mods on this kind of topics so we can improve and avoid.

Please create a sticky thread for all the rules on gambling discussion board to have a proper guidelines. Thanks admin!
