421  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: What Would a Nation of Sports Gamblers Look Like? on: October 31, 2022, 04:54:18 PM

A nation of gamblers would be a nation of irresponsible citizenry. The constant fights that will often come on will be a thing of worry. Take for instance communities where gamblers are much and see the irresponsible living in that community with youngsters not wanting to get proper jobs or do anything meaningful with their lives. Everybody wants to hit it big so they can display their wealth. Morality and communal living will be lost in such nation and people can kill in such communities at the slightest disagreement.
422  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Is it really possible to quit on these reasons on: October 31, 2022, 03:14:00 PM
You can when you won a huge amount

It is hard for anyone to quit when they win huge. When they win big they begin to think they have cracked the code for winning. They want to bet more. Anyone who tells you he is quitting after winning big is lying to you. He will find a way of going back to play more later.

You can when you lose a huge amount
This is the most popular reason to quit have you done this only to come back

No one quits when he has lost huge amount. They can quit when they have no more money to play but will go back when the money comes again. Gamblers see loss as a fight with the house and want to get back their revenge.

You can anytime you want

This is only one that can work. Self advice is the best advice.

You have to when you're wife tells you to

If a man's wife controls him to quit it means he does not have self control of himself. Every man should have self control and know when to quit.
423  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Which coin made you a millionaire? on: October 30, 2022, 07:51:04 PM
you decide to buy HEX because you trust someone you don't know, and you think it will make you rich. If you do not research carefully but only buy according to other people's opinions, you only lose money. Don't go back to blaming him if you don't reach your goal later on because you don't have any investment perspective.

It was trusting someone blindly. Op took the chance and was lucky to have succeeded. Crypto is a lucky business, not everyone gets the same thing eventhough they are doing the same thing. There are people who have lost alot of money following such steps and advice from strangers. Also, not everyone has made money in crypto. Am yet to make anything from cryptocurrency to show there is money in cryptos. Am still struggling to fully understand how to make money from it by buying low priced tokens and getting lucky selling them at their peak price. Most times I get lucky buying but unlucky selling at the top and in small profits.

I have seen more than 2 casinos locking user accounts for this action, and is it really the users fault?

From what you have tried to explain, it is not the users fault. But why is it that casinos and gambling sites are always looking for excuses not to pay out winnings. If they do not like paying winners they should not be running casino business at all. You do not expect players to loss every time. If that happens you will find people losing interest in playing at casinos because they will conclude that there is no need to go play. Gamblers want what will increase the little cash they stake and not what will make them lose it. It is worse when they mistakenly win and you do not pay it out.

everywhere these powerful are killing the poor - there is no stopping to it.
The world is not a good place to live. The life is very unpredictable and natural deaths are reducing and the war lords are taking everything in their hands.

The poor in their millions are scared of challenging the rich, that is why the rich act like they own the poor miserable masses. The way two adults behave over a dispute they should settle quietly but they drag the whole country into war and lives are lost because not them is sad. It is not only with the Russia and Ukraine war. Other wars also follow this pattern. It is usually with disagreement that should be settled in peace but never did. You are correct that war kills more than natural death.
426  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Gambling house responisbilty to protect people data on: October 30, 2022, 02:29:30 PM
Ideally, gambling houses should not disclose the identity of the person who won big without first asking him. Unfortunately, this is not respected always.

You know that most gambling houses do not like to pay out winnings. Those that do pay out will want to to everything to show that they are genuine and do pay out to winners. And the easiest way to let the public know they pay out is to make public the names of their winners. They know if they have to seek winners opinion, most of the winners will not want their names published and that is why they publish it without asking them. It is business strategy and cheap advertising for the gambling house.

I don't expect to read and hear this from learned people like you guys on an international forum such as bitcointalk, what have happen to our national unity and the pledge we made to serve Nigeria with all our strength and uphold her unity?

You just want to speak grammar here and act like say everything fine. But I know say down within you, you self gbadu wetin we deh talk here for open. No be everybody fit talk truth for public. Make you allow those weh fit talk make them talk am. These politicians no deh treat us like Human beings because them no value us at all. Them no rate us shishi.

429  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: A gambler who betrayed his friend's trust on: October 29, 2022, 07:02:26 PM
Is this real or just a story?

From the way the story was told, it should be a fiction. But it is a good story for learning. There is nothing wrong in trusting a friend but you should know the type of friend he is first. Even when people want to pretend, they can not do it all through. There will always be that sign of betrayal from the beginning but you can choose to ignore it. Charles was a little bit careless with his trust for Kelvin. I said careless because no one bets that huge and then sleeps before the match. The anxiety from the betting alone will keep you awake and restless until you see the result.

And yes I will leave the thread open so more people can share what they think.
But does it really matter what other members think about this ? Will their opinion satisfy your query ?

We learn everyday from others. There is nothing wrong in asking others to clarify what is a confusion to you. And yes it matters to me what people think about the question I asked. I need their opinions on it. Otherwise I would not have asked it. I need to know and that was why I asked. Please do not spam here with unnecessary posts.
431  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Imagine a world without electricity on: October 29, 2022, 10:55:44 AM

That world without electricity still exists though it will not be as beautiful as what we have now. But those who will be there will not know what the power or presence of electricity will do for them. We can only miss electricity because we have seen what it can do and how it has made life easy.  Even now there are people who live in areas without electricity and they're still managing to cope without it.

433  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Reasons Why We Prefer Online Casinos to Land-based Casinos on: October 28, 2022, 04:12:13 PM

From all the points you listed, Accessibility and Savings on Expenses are the ones that show online casino advantage over offline ones. They are easily accessible to anyone anywhere in the world, except in countries where casinos are banned. Look at what we do here and the different parts of the world we are from, yet we are able to gather in this forum and exchange ideas and views. It is the same way many play in casinos they may never have the opportunity to visit in real life. The 'Savings on Expenses' part is so true. It is what we see when people dress up and leave for office jobs while they can work remotely from home. It saves cost on transportation too.
434  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Elon Buys Twitter - Project X (BlueSky / AT Protocol) on: October 28, 2022, 03:42:35 PM
Elon purchased Twitter and claims it's part of Project X.

Any thoughts on what this might mean in the realm of Bitcoin/crypto/web3, if any? Or just perhaps censorship in general as a theme?

He should go ahead and also buy Telegram and WhatsApp too so all their interrupted services and scam activities will become checked. Elon has a magic touch to things. He is a successful businessman who knows how to make things work out. There is no need for anyone to accuse him of hiding behind anything to buy Twitter. He has a right to buy any property he wants provided he has the money for it.
435  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Casino with an online and offline branch. on: October 28, 2022, 10:11:37 AM

People who start a business online and get profits from it will not like to take it offline or keep an offline branch. There is ease that online gives and wider reach for the business. People outside your community and area will be able to contact your business and do it without stress and profits are made and exchanged. In the past before the internet became popular, casinos used to run offline and people did not have to complain. Today, they will complain of how difficult it is to only keep it offline. Business owners read all this and know where to invest more on. If they find online casinos more easy to operate and profitable, they will stay with it.

The Russians were on the run. They are fleeing from Ukraine, fleeing from Russia. I think Putin will also run, he has two options, to Korea or to Iran.

Putin is a very proud man. I do not think he will run away from Russia no matter whatever that happens. He would rather die fighting than go running away. His pride will not allow him take that decision. But what makes you think Putin will do such? I do not like Putin and the war that he started, I have to say it here again. But saying the truth as it is, Putin will not end up as a coward by running away like frightened rats.
437  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Your motive for giving on: October 28, 2022, 09:20:23 AM
3. Givers With Intent
We hear of benefit giving; where give A so later on he will do something for you, or you give so people will think highly of you.
 It's quite sad that these days people have lost the true meaning of giving and replaced it with something else.

 What is your reason for giving?

I call this type political givers. They are hypocrites who pretend to be doing something good for others whereas their real aim is to help themselves. There are so many of them in Africa. They want to be seen while giving to others. Most of them like to record on video their acts of giving, displaying them online. I attitude to giving falls on number 2

I can give even if it is the only money I have on me, as far as I'm giving to help the condition of one situation.

You will have to give us a contact to call to confirm that claim. Am joking. Yes there are some people like that who give even when it drains them. This are the selfless givers.

As we don enter ember season, e no be surprise say insecurities  dey abound.

Insecurity no even deh the way I deh expect am for this ember months compared to how e deh for this country before na. This country deh worse under Buhari in every dimension, which one we want to talk? Na economy? abi na health? The man no just send anybody. And those weh fit shake am from sleep no send too. Buhari government no be wetin anybody want to remember. Tinubu go worse for those weh deh consider voting him to replace Buhari because even Tinubu don lost his senses to illness.
439  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Power Or Money ? on: October 27, 2022, 06:56:36 PM
Who needs power and don't need money?
Who need money and don't need power? The two works I'm conjunction and are inseparable because one could always yield to another. Well some persons could admitting of more interested in making money that looking  for power that will be less effective without money.

Power controls money. Have you asked yourself why those with money will fight for position that gives them authority? Donald Trump was already a billionaire but he lacked power to control the US until he became the US president. In underdeveloped Africa where politicians do not have regard for rule of law, the president has supreme power and can almost do whatever he likes and escape with the abuse. In that case, the president can destroy anyone's business no matter how rich that person is. You now see that power is greater than money.

I kuku tire for the mata too. I know say rebranding dey good and e go help new investors and all dat but d mata of consan be say e no go change the downward slope the naira dey head to

If them like make them rebrand from here to Jamaica, if insecurity is not tackled and local production of consumable items encouraged nothing good go happen. Naira go still deh fall go. Emefiele na the worst CBN governor so far. The man deh act like person weh no know wetin him deh do. He is just allowing this APC government rubbish him because him belle and salary weh him want to continue deh collect.


I get question to ask o: why e be say the rebranding mata dey com for the election period

Na just easy money for the boys, na why. You remember how Emefiele take buy presidential form and bought cars for campaign but later stepped down? Na the same thing. He is just creating avenues for APC to give them money that can not be traced.
