This forum has so many gambling addicts

[IdiotCoder]

I have never seen any place, real life or online, embrace gambling as much as this forum has. A little bit of gambling is okay but when you do it with the hope of making money it becomes a problem. The house ALWAYS wins. I see so many people here throw their money away at these online casinos.

I just banned myself from the casino IRL yesterday after losing $40 at Blackjack. I got 18, and the dealer got 20. See? It doesn't matter how good you are at the game, the odds are always stacked against you.

If this forum were embracing drug addiction, don't you think it wouldn't look as good?

I would not put drugs and gambling on the same page.

Once you are a drug addict you are harming your body and mind. You are taking substance but a gambling addict is harming his mind. The physical affect is less here.

You can not take drug just for fun but you can gamble for fun.

Anyway, there will be many more difference. Point is gambling addict and drug addict is not the same in my eyes.

@idiotcoder , it is called gambling because it is what it is. Game of chance  .
Drug is more harmful because it can instantly kill but gambling can only make you broke but can only kill when lack of money makes a gambler to commit suicide either by deciding to run under a moving truck.

I'm only wearing a gambling signature because it was the only campaign I could get into with 4 Merits.

My point is that they are both addictions and they both lead to the addict never having any money. So many people here are broke because they waste their money. Same with drug addicts. There is research out there to suggest that pathological gamblers' brains are wired the same way a drug addict's mind is wired. They want to experience an increase in dopamine.

In both instances, it's better to quit/.

The real point is that OP has had asked rhetorical and manipulative question, about a thing that simply does not exist.
Sure, addiction is an addiction! No matter what is your poison, it has the potential for being mentally and physically harmful.
Case is as always, the dosage. As I see it, most of people here promote healthy and responsible gambling.
The amount of "risk that what you are ready to loose" sentences could easily fill a phonebook.

[YuginKadoya]

Embrace by the forum you say, It exists here in the forum because of bitcoin, we can say that this gambling site embrace Cryptocurrency because of the convenience it has and the animosity of the transactions, Gamblers would surely want all of these things so they combine the effectiveness of it the forum only provides the conversation an announcement for new gambling sites, if you don't want to gamble that much then don't look in this section and you should remove your signature along with it, And people can simply choose what they want and if they get corrupted by the addiction that is in gambling that is their own doing for taking gambling seriously.

You said it is not okay to gamble with the thought of making money. Then why would you even think about gambling? Probably 95% of people that are gambling do it for money,hoping they can make some profit and cash out. And the rest of 5% do it for fun and if there will be profit involved that's a bonus for them.

That's complete BS. They're both addictive, but just because gambling doesn't have an immediate physical effect doesn't mean it's less harmful. Both addictions can severly ruin your life.

[CryptopreneurBrainboss]

They aren't addicts, if they were then you won't see them on forum more often. Most of them are just pretenders and many of them are only here to meet their post count. Take a good look at their replies most time you will get a hint that they don't have an idea about gambling. I do gamble occasionally so am not an addict.  The forum is filled with gamble lovers not addicts

you just contradict yourself by promoting a gambling site.
if by all means you are against with this industry, then you wont even wear a sig or promote a site
and stand your ground on this matter. being a drug addict is different from a gambling addict
though both are addictions but i would say, you can easily reinstate a life of a gambler

Drugs are extremely prohibited in most of the part of the world and will never be accepted as part of the forum ethics. Accepting or Implementing drugs as part of the forum, will not yield anything good as this has a great effect to human life compared to gambling. Though, Gambling also can ruin human life like drugs but drug is more destructive than Gambling.

First of all Gambling should ONLY be treated as a recreational way of unwinding stress or play for FUN

Using Gambling as a method of making money is a different story i know some people are making money in this way but majority are losing not only money but their family, friends, cars, houses due to gambling.

Its good that you self regulate yourself in entering casino's after losing some money! and this is a good sign that you still have control over your emotions in losing money in a casino.

It's so awkward to see one wearing a signature and at the same time not promoting it. As a gambler i had the opportunity to promote many casinos website even though not an addict of gambling. There has been threads about ways of handling gambling addiction in the forum and cautions has been given in most of the gambling threads.

[leonair]

What can you expect then?

this is a Gambling section by the way so it's normal for people to talk about their techniques and stories about gambling.

If you'll go to the casino in real life you will also see people that are gambling, right?

[gentlemand]

I have never seen any place, real life or online, embrace gambling as much as this forum has.

Truly I will never understand why this place offers up gambling as a legitimate way to increase your holdings like it's some type of fun Saturday job.

If people want to set their money on fire then fine. They ain't getting any sympathy from me.

I would not put drugs and gambling on the same page.

Problem gambling breeds lies, theft, suicide, and ruins lives. Just like drugs funnily enough.

There's plenty of people who can take it or leave it but the normalisation of gambling in recent years must have fucked up millions of lives that would otherwise have been untouched by it.

Here people talk more than they gamble, it`s a first thing, second is that most of the gamblers from this forum gamble with free money, or money made here on forum or some other site, service, rarely people give money from their pocket to gamble. You can notice that in their comments about gambling. Many of us here advertised gambling sites, just some of us actually gambled a lot with higher bets than 1 satoshi.

[kurian]

All people who posts on this board are not gambling addicts. I agree that there are people who are broke and mentally disturbed because of gambling addiction. I am a gambler and not an addict. Mostly, i look for promos, tournaments, bonus and challenges that run by different casino platforms. Its been beneficial to me and I am sure that there are people like me on this forum. If this forum were promoting drugs, I won't be a part of it.

[IdiotCoder]

I have posted in this section a few times before criticizing gambling and like before, I was criticized for the sig I'm wearing. I already said this once, but it seems everyone missed it so I will say it again.

I joined the signature campaign because it was the only campaign available.

It just goes to show how truly this forum is addicted to gambling. I see so many advertisements for casinos here, every second or third programming job I get is for a casino and so forth.

I only associate myself with casinos here because they are so rampant on this forum.

To be honest, I haven't read every single post in this section, but from what I have seen, people seem to love gambling, even if they loose.
