Gambling ads become part of daily life

[Taskford]

Users didn't explain how their life changed because of gambling. I'm sure some ppl won't know when they should stop so it becomes out of control. I don't expect ppl to say their life story but I asked how's gambling affected you & ppl you know ?

I think they already share their own opinion and also maybe experience to. We don't expect you to believe on the opinions provided by other since for sure that you might somehow get disappointed on someone's view point towards the topic you want to raised here.

Somehow their are people's life change especially if they caught up on the ads they see then get attracted to gamble and end in bad faith especially when they experience addiction.

But somehow there are people casually gamble because they know its risky to continue because they maybe know that they might lose big amount later on.

On how it affect to each people well maybe depends on the level of their knowledge and severity of their activities, because if they gamble to much then maybe they might came to the point that it will be so hard to control their selves and this situation might cost them lots of money losses.

Almost every sports including football's dominated by gambling ads. Casino ads are affecting ppl. Kids see it every where it isn't healthy. Billboard ads tv ads & online ads are every where. How's gambling affected you & ppl you know ?

I've got mixed feelings about renting my sig for gambling. I've done it because I wanted managers to consider me for other sig campaigns which aren't casinos when they're available. I'd prefer giving it to mixer sig campaigns but they're banned. I'm not sure how long I'll rent my sig like this.

There is a big difference when it comes to displaying ads like that in adult environments and places where there are kids. I do agree that kids should not be exposed to these things as it affects them negatively in the future. But when it comes to the adult side of things, I see no harm. Someone who is not inclined to gamble, will not become a gambler easily just by seeing a lot of ads. Besides depending on where you see the ads, you can block them if you want to. So being a good adult you should know how to use ad blockers and then you can choose what you want to see.

That’s why there are always warnings, like “you must be 18+” and “gamble responsibly.” It’s about personal responsibility.

A lot of people have problems with this personal responsibility thing, and gambling is not a good way to teach them this.

OP, what bothers you when you wear gambling signature? I dont think we have underaged here, who read forum and focus only on gambling content. If an underaged finds this forum, imo he would have come here for guides how-to do something with wallet or crypto, or have a problem with crypto and would search help here. I dont think that underaged come here on purpose to look for a better casino to gamble. As majority are adults here your conscience should be clean, you are not promoting anything bad.

Maybe what Op is linking is related to ethics and also his religion. We don't know for sure, but we know that some have discussed it about gambling and religion. All will be left to each person's judgment, and we don't need to interfere.
Gambling is currently easily accessible to anyone, we can only supervise our family members and warn them about the risks. We can only make sure that when they gamble, they understand and comprehend the possibilities that occur, even the worst possibilities that must be accepted.

OP hasnt mentioned anything about religion, but if it is forbidden, then I dont wear signature. I dont even know what to say and how to act, if gambling is forbidden by religion, and almost every post in forum consist gambling ads under it. What people who are strongly religious should do? Leave forum, disable signatures, never visit gambling section? Imo, gambling has become so popular that it is already a part of everyones life. Just pay minimum attention to it or dont focus on it at all. Alcohol is sold everywhere, ads are everywhere, people openly use it everywhere, yet nobody close children eyes with their hand every time there is alcohol around.

Aside from religion, the other factor which he can consider is he can be the cause for someones addiction in case a member here decided to gamble after seeing his signature code by posting here.

It’s not really a big deal and the chance of that to happened is very low because all of here discussed gambling on daily basis even without signature campaign.

Signature campaign is just an extra promotion for gambling since we have a board dedicated for gambling itself.

[Dunamisx]

One thing I know of sure is that we can't control the Internet by ourselves, but we have the right and capacity to control our children on the use of the internet, they should not be too exposed without being oriented on the use of the online marketing they may be seing through ads and other advertisement medium, as we know how big the Internet is how how many ads one could have come across together with gambling ads and other none gambling ads, and now, we are getting used to them already.

I have no data to backup, but I'm sure 99% of people in this forum are 18+ years old. In such ages, we know what good and bad thing to us, any choice we make, we have to take the risk if something happen in the future.

Young people are very prone, they still don't have a good logic and will try anything they see on their screen.

I know this forum could affect people to gamble, but if they're already mature, I don't see anything wrong with that.

I'm not sure.

As many people are struggle to meet their end needs, both parents have to work and they even have to take for double or triple jobs. They will don't have time to control their children, we not even talk how do they grow their child when they're busy with their own life.

Forbid them to use cell phone seems not a good way to, when a child taught by strict parents, in the future they would be either coward or too free.

There are a lot of things that kids shouldn't see, but they do because they live in this world. Gambling ads aren't that bad in my opinion. In countries where gambling is legal and the government allows platforms to do business and pay their taxes, it isn't a problem. When it comes to kids, it's the responsibility of their parents to make sure that they don't get affected by such things because at the end of the day, a kid doesn't do whatever they see as long as their upbringing is good, so it's the parents that can make kids avoid or do certain things until they reach a specific age which marks their freedom, mostly it's 18 years. Still, it could be higher or lower based on the region.

You mentioned about your signature space and the gambling signature campaigns, I would say that we barely have kids in this forum because we are in an era where kids don't like simple things such as this forum, they wouldn't have any interest in creating an account and reading only texts by spending hours like most of us because they like visuals, and they will be more into social platforms than forums like these. So, you shouldn't worry about that unless you find it unethical and against your moral values in general.

I had always have this impression on underage people being relatively new to the world of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, so they are likely to visit the newbie section of the forum, instead of venturing directly to the gambling section of this forum in order to search for places to wager their money.
Beside, those newbies may be young, lacking of experience but they are not stupid, they would sooner than later realize there will be restrictions for them to use casinos and withdraw any potential winning to their personal wallets. They would realize that as soon as they learn what KYC is, and that will discourage them from gambling, at least in the most popular, bigger and KYC compliant casinos within this ecosystem and those which have presence in this forum.

[JunaidAzizi]

You are saying two different things in your post. First, you are targeting children, and second, you are thinking about your signature renting, as you are also advertising it. It's true that casinos are investing too much in advertising, and they are doing it on different levels and places, such as TV, billboards, and here on the forum. For people, it's annoying, but for them, it's a source and a way through which they earn. However, they are affecting those people and children who are not interested. But on this forum, there are almost no children, so you are showing the signatures to those who are independent in their decisions, and you are not forcing them. If you really care and don't want to be part of any casino, then the best option is to leave the campaign and wait until you find another campaign you want. However, I would suggest staying because you are just showing, not forcing, for adoption.

Advertising is a marketing strategy of any business, including gambling. Advertising can basically attract new customers to try the game, but it is a personal responsibility when they get trapped and lose a lot of their money. Gambling is not just about winning money, but gambling is a game that allows gamblers to lose all their money. It is okay to gamble as long as they are responsible, but problems will still arise when they become too addicted.

In some countries, gambling advertising is probably banned because gambling is illegal. Even in countries where gambling is legal, I think they can also minimize advertising to reduce the number of problem gamblers. I have heard of countries like that where they ban gambling advertising, but they legalize gambling.

It doesn’t make sense IMO.. why would the government ban advertising if they allow casinos to operate in the first place?

Advertising is how casinos attract more players and increase their revenue. And in today’s world, social media is the biggest platform for ads. Some even use vloggers and influencers to promote their casinos.

If casinos are legal, then advertising them shouldn’t be a big issue, as long as it’s done responsibly.

It's possible and depends on the political will and its laws of the government.

Casinos has large tax contribution to government if collected properly that's why authorities don't want to ban them but to regulate them instead.

While advertising is really good but it should be taken with policy, vloggers insert casino promotion video even at the very random meme videos or has logo on it as watermark, i know its against on casino advertising laws and on the socmed site's policy

Almost every sports including football's dominated by gambling ads. Casino ads are affecting ppl. Kids see it every where it isn't healthy. Billboard ads tv ads & online ads are every where. How's gambling affected you & ppl you know ?

Gambling and casino advertisements are so annoying that there is no space on social media where these advertisements do not appear. Currently, gambling and casino advertisements are placed on all online-based media, from billboards on the streets to YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram at home. If such annoying advertisements keep coming repeatedly in the middle of doing some important work, then the mind of the people is not right. We are so fed up with all these advertisements that now we do not want to enter social media. People of all classes, especially from children to the elderly, are fed up with seeing all these annoying gambling advertisements.

[fruktik]

Gambling is for people who are above plus eighteen years because at that age one expected to become mentally developed and take decisions that are rational and that includes taking decisions on gambling it's true that there are allot of gambling adds that are out there both on and off the net it's the duty of parents in making sure that they monitor what their children are consuming especially from the net for the safety of their children but you can't actually stop casinos from running adds

No, they can't ban showing casino ads, which have become very intrusive lately. For example, I see them almost every day several times in Telegram channels. How can you like that? You shouldn't show them so persistently. Why? People might perceive them as some kind of spam, and then start taking appropriate measures. Mass complaints could lead to a total blocking of this type of advertising.

You will also be shown gambling advertisements when you watch videos on YouTube. If you find it boring to watch videos, when you watch live broadcasts of any program or game, you will see gambling advertisements being shown to you at every break. Even when you go out with your family or go out for your work, you will see gambling advertisements being shown on various LED displays on the street. That is, why do you know that gambling is being involved in all aspects of the current time? Big gambling companies are selecting big stars for their branding promotion and in exchange for big stars, the positive aspects of that gambling site are being highlighted, as a result of which people who follow those stars are getting inspired to gamble by watching the stars. Gradually, I think people will be able to learn more about gambling and people will gamble more in the future.

Not when the advertisers are paying the platform they are advertising on, taking telegram you mentioned as an example, advertising on telegram is not free, it cost good money to buy those ad spaces, so even if telegram users start reporting the persistent display of those ads, telegram  themselves are the ones displaying those ad, what they will have to do is reduce the frequency by which they display the ad, not outrightly blocking the ads they are making money from.

Personally though, I would say that ads are normal, when you come across one or two or even more, you either like it, view it or simply ignore and move to what you want to do, mass reporting can not stop ads, it can only lead to readjusting.

If there is no mass complaints, gambling ads will still available on many places. So we can only accept the ads but we don't have to playing gambling because we take responsible and control over ourselves. If he decide not to gambling, he will not tempting to playing gambling because of seeing the gambling ads.

No one will force you to gambling because it is personal decision so we don't have to feel it is annoying although that is right. We need to realize that gambling ads become part of our life now besides seeing the other ads.
