Gambling discussion effect

[coolcoinz]

I don't think that just by discussing gambling there would be an issue in the mental state of a person. What OP said does not make any sense to me as unless a person feels gambling is okay or good for him no one would start gambling. Our discussion on this board is solely based on ideas, tricks, and the repercussions of gambling. I mean how will such discussion influence anyone to gamble when it is always said that it is a risky entertainment? OP we are here to get entertained and if you feel such discussions are getting into your mind then stop following this board. Please do not come up with such a post wherein you have no idea what we are discussing and then you start cursing us for our discussion.

OP is looking for an excuse, like any other addict.

It wasn't my fault, it was those:
-people advertising gambling sites
-signature campaigns
-people bragging about wins
-bitcointalk forum that allows people to talk about their gambling
-casinos that lure us in with promos
Add anything you like in here.

We can go on and on.

The reality is, if you're a strong-minded individual, you don't care. You do what you do, regardless of what someone writes in a thread.

What’s the effect of gambling discussion here to you? I’m thinking to quit participating on signature campaign that involves gambling discussion in an event that my gambling activities is increasing above my normal habit.

from the point of view of everyone here, of course it is almost the same, but for me it all depends on the thoughts or mature minds of everyone who is in this gambling section and is also supported by their goals in being in the gambling discussion section. there are some people who are on gambling boards just to do post requirements like you and use the money for more beneficial than gambling and also there are people here following signature campaigns to get budget to keep gambling so not just for campaign terms but also to find information or share experiences about gambling.
and if you feel this gambling discussion has had the effect of encouraging you to gamble it depends on your own commitment if you can have a commitment and always be consistent with the rules that you plan Im sure you not feel bad.
for example when you get paid from a campaign $70 and you feel curious to bet with the strategies shared by others here but you always plan to use at least $20 to gamble and the rest is up to you what is most important you can manage your finances to better separate money for gambling and for other things.

for me participating in gambling discussions is like having the urge to try betting on certain types of bets and its not bad as long as you have control and a mature mindset.

Well, thankfully I didn't trigger any impulsive behavior due to participating gambling discussions and to being exposed to gambling content for several hours every day. For me it's an opportunity to share what I've been seeing and experiencing since I started my gambling journey several years ago and to talk about the risks, positive and negative aspects of this industry, always pointing in a rational, sensible and logical way, which prevents the individual from putting himself in dangerous social and financial situations which will compromise his life severely.

For those that have friends around that are gamblers too, this can increase our interest in gambling and make us to gamble more because we might want to compete with other to have a reason amount being won in gambling so to boost about it. This alone can make us a chronic addictive gambler that we are not supposed to be with bigger consequences if we are not able to control ourselves. The effect of gambling can be either minimal or maximal depending on how we see it and on how far we've been into it.

[passwordnow]

It's basically because you're encouraged by those experiences that you've shared. I've gambled even before joining the forum and gambling discussions and that's not really a lot to think of. And it's easy for you to convey into discussions if you're actually gambling or had done it before.

Just watch yourself out and you don't have to be addicted on it. Just be careful, really, when you're seeing that urge but just as what people are saying on this matter. To each their own.

It doesn't affect me at all when I engage in discussions related to gambling. It won't make me addicted to gambling or anything similar because I can control myself. While it might affect others, for me it's normal. I'm simply sharing my experience in gambling and offering ideas to people who ask questions here. Like I'd try my best to stick to the topic and not getting into off it, and I'll just help whoever needs it.

[darkangel11]

Reading a thread has literally no impact on someone's addiction. It can make you more inclined towards trying your luck, which is why casinos pay people to post here, because they know it works, but it cannot make you and addict, or stop you from fighting your addiction. If you're having problems with it you should either start controlling what you read and simply stop reading this section of the forum, or seek professional help.

Gambling had both positive and negative impacts,the way you take gambling will give the impact.If you take the gambling as the entertainment point of you,surely it help you with some fun and some winnings.But if you get addicted after a travel in the gambling for some years,then you get addicted for sure.Most of the addicted person will doesn't have the capacity to get away from the deposit limit,So it only reason for the addicted people to get more loss as compared to normal gamblers. When I had my gambling,I had started with 50 dollars as my first bet.Then I had increased my gambling to 100,150 and my current monthly betting limit is 1000 dollars.

I’m not a regular gambler before I start participating on gambling discussion here due to campaign requirements. Right now I have urge to gamble everytime I saw someone post here about discussion on profit or winning jackpot. Even a simple discussion about strategy makes me want to gamble because I’m excited to try the strategy that I’m thinking.

Right now, I’m still not frequently gambling because of my work but I do regular gambling once or twice a week even if I don’t do this before just because I’m always exposed to gambling discussion and the thought of it makes me want to try.

What’s the effect of gambling discussion here to you? I’m thinking to quit participating on signature campaign that involves gambling discussion in an event that my gambling activities is increasing above my normal habit.

Before I become an active participant of a signature campaign, I gamble and bets at the disposal of any money I have in my possession and I am I do win and times I don't win anything, it's always have been that way before I start signature and since I became an active participant of the forum, my forum engagement increased because I  noticed that I spend more of my time in gambling because it's required 50% of my time. It was becoming exhausting for first time but it's now part of me and I'm now used to it but my participation in gambling didn't change, not altered.

If you really have good intentions of making quality post, gambling is really difficult to make up but since you are always not having time for gambling, I will advise you to do gambling post early as requested by the manager first, you can use 3 days to complete 10 posts in gambling and use the remaining one for other boards, it will even reduce your exposures to gambling and continue that pattern, you wouldn't get tired of using the forum and gambling board.

The discussion? I'm updated about the current form of teams and players, the team who is interested in a player and what is actually trending in gambling. I also learn some skills and tips on winning which I have tried out, some work and some don't, or maybe I'm not lucky yet, The gambling behavioral addictions and opinions are quite useful and the discussion is like having a one on one discussion outside which is a great thing in sports.

Depends or according into you because if you do find yourself getting that in touch with gambling or having that interest to play because of that gambling post requirement then it wont really be that bad on quitting

the signature campaign since you are the ones who would really be making out such decision for yourself.This is why it would really be that wise that you should really be able to balance in between things which you do seem that it would really be beneficial or something good for you. In overall, its not really that much of a concern because even if you do make out some post on gambling discussion board, there are still people who could be able to control themselves not to gamble at all but cant really deny that once you are exposed to gambling discussions then interest and possible engagement would be there.

We know that you could really go along with the topics if you do know or really have that real gambling experience which there's no hard on answering or making discussions into those people
who do have that also gambling experience which i could say that it is really that interesting as long you dont make yourself that addicted.

Effects are more accurately characterized as system repercussions. We connect challenges and are anxious to propose solutions, which in majority of instances solve our problems, but in certain circumstances, our actions have a ripple effect on us. You are absolutely correct; gambling has a positive as well as negative impact on us. We must do our best to adhere to our previously established principles, because there is still work to be done in the system. Addiction is real and very difficult to quit, hoping not to be on the wrong side of gambling.

That’s quite hard to do mate as most of the signature campaign these days are giving more emphasis on gambling, so you need to post in gambling discussion whether you like it or not. However, if you want to avoid or limit your gambling activities, I guess gambling discussion will not be a big trouble on your goal. Instead, it will help you find more enlightenment in gambling and see its disadvantages more than its advantages so that you will never fall into gambling addiction. The problem is not actually in gambling discussion, but it’s your mindset about gambling.

That is why we shouldn't guide ourselves by what others think we should do or by their actions. To have a solid personality and character is very important to not become a sock-puppet of someone else, like friends, influencers, media and society in general. You are the one who know what is the best for your life and your personal necessities, and nobody else. I believe one of the issues with addicted gamblers in the example you mentioned is the fact they are constantly needing to belong to a group, to a tribe, so they engage themselves in activities they shouldn't, just to satisfy people around.

You're someone who's easily swayed, then. Perhaps it's best to practice self-control and just stick your fascination with just fascination and not decide to try on these things that fast. Immediately jumping on the gun is really dangerous - it's the fastest way to lose money or other things aside from money. Never had that happen to me when it comes to gambling or any other hobbies/activities/experience.

Involving in gambling is different in participating in discussions it because once you are involve with gambling then it's up to you if you are getting affected or not it short all your moves is in your decisions. While participating in discussions you can participate and  exchange idea with others even though you are not a full-time gamblers as long as you have the idea or small experience.

Gambling is highly addictive.
So, not just your participation in discussions in this tab has "the power to lead you astray", but anything else that involves this topic... a conversation with friends who play frequently, always passing by a casino on your way to work or home, reading a magazine that has a lot of advertising about gambling, etc.

A "spark" is enough to ignite your curiosity to try these games a few times to fall in love with them.
As long as you know how to control yourself and are prudent with the bets you place, I don't see anything wrong with playing regularly.

Welcome and good luck with your bets!

I don't think that just by discussing gambling there would be an issue in the mental state of a person. What OP said does not make any sense to me as unless a person feels gambling is okay or good for him no one would start gambling. Our discussion on this board is solely based on ideas, tricks, and the repercussions of gambling. I mean how will such discussion influence anyone to gamble when it is always said that it is a risky entertainment? OP we are here to get entertained and if you feel such discussions are getting into your mind then stop following this board. Please do not come up with such a post wherein you have no idea what we are discussing and then you start cursing us for our discussion.

Or it could also mean that the discussions regarding tricks, betting strategies, sports analysis and anything along these lines became very effective to him as it triggers his curiosity in trying to follow these tips where someone has made enough winning, like a successful parlay for example. A gambler may sometimes experiment with his betting activities once he learned something new from his fellow gamblers when it does look like it is effective, but then again gambling is gambling, no tips or tricks would guarantee a win but will only boost a little bit of a probability maybe.
And, yeah I have to agree that if OP feels like this board is somewhat like a peer pressure to him, he should stop participating in gambling boards and focus on something what he learned on his own about gambling to avoid increasing the frequency of his gambling habits, if that's what he wants.  I thought the gambling boards discussions would help you better understand what you're betting on and lessen the risk of getting too much loss and not to encourage somewhat to go beyond his betting limits or habits.

[darewaller]

I don't feel any urge to gamble, just because I read a bunch of forum posts about "gambling strategies".
The term "gambling strategy" is nonsense, because no gambling strategy had made any consistent profits in the history of gambling. The gamblers, who are discussing gambling strategies think that they could trick and outsmart the casino, which is totally delusional.
If you are feeling such desire to gamble, this might be the beginning of a gambling addiction and you should be careful.
I just gamble for fun and I don't care at all about gambling strategies or ways to make money via gambling. You can't make consistent money via gambling.

In my case I did once only, after I read a strategy about slot games because that was also the time I started checking slots out. The strategies are only basic like you need to choose a slot with the xx percent of RTP and you need to switch on the other slot games once you feel that the previous slot you play is not doing well after a few spins.

There are no well-detailed or major strategies because slots are only a luck-based game. Other than a forum post, I believe that the one that can truly attract a person to play gambling is the catchy ads that they see on the web or on the apps that they use and then the casino streamers that they accidentally see in the social media sites.

It doesn't really affect my game. I take the opportunity to exchange opinions, but talking about it, or in this case reading and writing about it, doesn't make me want to play more. You seem to be someone who had not gambled before or very little and that's why what you describe is happening to you. I would say that as long as it's not a problem for you, it's fine. But the fact that you are thinking about leaving the gambling signature campaign indicates that something is wrong.

[Pierre 2]

Actually gambling discussions here can be very insightful. I personally didn't know you could calculate winning chances in casinos, I thought those are always closed source / but I learned from people that many casinos are not hiding anything. I also learned some different mathematics of gambling from here. I think forums are very beneficial to find proper/good casinos like stake com for example. There are many information here which you can't find with googling.
