The faucet is fun for newbs and gets people interested or hooked to gamble the own money. I don't think it'd be a big loss if it was removed but it likely brings in more customers so has a benefit. If it didn't stunna would have likely removed it by now.

also i can add up that the faucet is a kind of a reward for the whales out there who bet huge amounts of money and then can use a max paying faucet and maybe get back some of the looses they had

I doubt whales are going to bother trying to recoup losses via the faucet. Waste of time for even newbs.

Max faucet is 10k satoshi.

Note  :
Faucet will start increasing from 200 satoshis when you've wagered about BTC 1

Anyway my problem has been resolved by Stunna. Thanks for it

This is kinda funny thing to read because If I am a whale that spend over 10 BTC to gamble in PrimeDice and dont literally care wether if I lose it all then I wouldnt even care for the faucet even if it gives 20,000 satoshis per claim .
The faucet is merely there to satisfy the "faucet licker" which once abused the faucet or to satisfy someone that dont want to risk a cent to play at the site. Most people tend to think that house "always" win which is theoretically true and that is the reason that some people wont even want to risk anything but just use the faucet to get a small amount for the shear of fun

P.S : Im not a faucet licker

 Is there no way for you in technological aspect to find a way to make it as instant as 1 btc for 1 satoshi? If there is a way , have you tried it?

 I played primedice since it was primedice 1 , hell even in primedice 3 it was faster when it first started after sometime. But recently , specially this last 2 months , its killing me , slower then it should.

 You are right , you think about the faucet players and you are totally right . But consider people who bet small so they can get their gambling addiction in the lower amounts rather then spending shit ton of money losing all and crippling their lives , some of us have to keep on playing just to play , not to win or lose.

Well it was faster at start . Less players and db didn't need to have 6B+ bets .

Every bigger site does that . Just dice had 4s delay on "dust" bets.

Its just the easiest way to lower the stress on servers and db.

You can't compare dust bets from Just Dice to dust bets from Primedice. Just dice is in Clams and it's way faster even with 0.00001 CLAM, that's about 10 satoshi by the way.
I never experienced any slow bets, because I always do 0.01 BTC+, just my view on this dust thing.

I think he meant when JD was using BTC, then there was really 4s delay on bets less than 10 satoshi or so. With dust bets on PD i can make 100k bets per day using bot, i tested on JD too, and got almost the same result, it was 110k i think. I think it is reasonable to have delay on small bets, especially for faucet users, what i think would be great, to remove delay for users who deposited their btc and not playing from faucet. But i guess it is not so easy to implement.

Admittedly, I haven't seen the PD backend code, so take this with a grain of salt, but it actually seems pretty trivial to implement.  You've clearly already got parameterization with respect to bet amount and you clearly have access to any user's stats.  I think it makes sense to say that if a user's deposits are greater than a user's faucet draws then go show that user a little more respect and let them bet faster even if it's a small amount.

I vote to remove faucet then.. why the fuck is it even there? It gives just a few hundreds satoshi, that's not even 1 cent. Why do people gamble if they don't have any money?

I think there a bunch of reasons for the faucet.  Here are 2:

1) It keeps people dreaming and talking and chatting---this is important for a site with a social side like PD.  Having an active chatroom and a fast bet ticker keeps the site feeling full and chatty and fun even if there's no one on in a given moment who's betting big.
2) People can try out the system before depositing---this is important in general on websites that ask you to send them money.

Faucet exists for the main reason to let people try it before depositing.
Or for people like me, dreaming to hit 9900x and feel satisfied with your life.

This is not the case for it, it is more about trimming the database. PrimeDice is getting over 10M bets each day (references below) , however there isnt any data for the dust sized bet percentage which I assume is around 80 % of their daily bet and that is around 8 M of bets cluttering up their database and that cost some for their database maintenance
The idea to throttle this dust sizes bet would be to cut down the number of the dust sized bet generated daily but then again with all this throttle, the number are still high enough ( wonder if it isnt throttle ). As per stated , finding balance to satisfy this database stuff and players isnt easy

A good way to test is to go to https://pd3.co/. If highrollers dont show up, then the site is down.

SO WHY DOES THIS SCAM SITE ALWAYS HAVE MORE REDS THAN GREENS PLAYS? I HAVE WAGERED MORE THAN 10 BTC AND THE FUCKING REDS ARE ALWAYS AND I MEAN ALWAYS MORE THAN THE GREENS. WAY MORE! CARE TO EXPLAIN?

It's nothing too unusual about freak bad luck, after all someone has to be the unlucky 1-in-a-million case.

But fortunately PrimeDice provides you with the tools to check if you're just unlucky or were cheated. Give it a read here: https://primedice.com/verify

The simple way to check is before you start gambling save in a notepad the "server seed hash", then set your own custom client seed (and write that down too). Once you're finished playing, hit the reveal server secret button. Copy and paste that server seed into DiceSite's excellent tool:

http://dicesites.com/primedice/verifier

And make sure the results match.  Before you do that for real, claim a few free bits from the PrimeDice faucet and attempt this procedure and make sure you can see how it works.

Honestly, verifying bets is satisfying. You can remove all the doubts from your mind about the site being fair or not.  =)

Everything is based on chance and you have not any control on it . Just roll it and hope you have good chance at that moment . otherwise you must cry ... after that will check your shots on dicebot

I think you shouldnt be gambling if you're not preparedto accept your losses.

These faucets are just for trapping new people in to the gambling world because as a newbie no one want to put their money and try so these faucets are just to a attractions those new people to try first and once they addicted or liked then surely they will deposit more and start playing.
