Casinos, players don't only serve for profits.

[bangjoe]

If the casino has such a mechanism it is very remarkable, it can be said they care about the gamblers, but on the other hand they will lose a lot of profit fields, because people's greed is gold for casino owners.
There are some casinos that provide limits that can be chosen by ourselves, but does anyone do it? just a little bit, and the gamblers don't care that.

Psychological problems and money management, should go back to yourself, have limits and self-control that is your problem not the problem of the casino, it's silly to blame the casino for your inability to manage yourself.

[Smartprofit]

The primary goal of any commercial organization is to maximize its profits. A casino's profit is a player's loss. That's the harsh reality. 🙋

Yes, of course, a commercial company can warn its customers of potential dangers if required by law. For example, in my country, all cigarette packs are "decorated" with frightening images (showing the consequences of various diseases caused by smoking). From an aesthetic standpoint, this looks very unpleasant... I can't estimate how much these frightening images reduce the overall number of smokers in the country.

I believe everyone should mind their own business. A commercial organization should make money, and doctors and psychologists should warn people of potential dangers. Otherwise, it looks hypocritical. There's even a meme online: "Bees vs. honey!"

I believe that gambling addiction can be overcome with honesty, not hypocrisy. You need to tell yourself: "Yes, those who gamble can develop a gambling addiction. Therefore, I must do everything possible to avoid becoming a victim. It's my responsibility." This approach applies not only to gambling but to virtually any activity a person engages in. There are many different risks in life. 🪂

If the casino has such a mechanism it is very remarkable, it can be said they care about the gamblers, ....

For me, it doesn’t really make sense when people say casinos care about gamblers. At the end of the day, they are still a business. I don’t think it’s really their responsibility to care about every gambler unless they are required to do so. And that requirement should come from the regulators where they got their license. If regulators tell them to build a system that can detect problem gamblers, then they should do it.

Same with self-exclusion. If a gambler clicks it because they want to stop, it should be automatic. It shouldn’t be treated like a request that still needs approval.

But honestly, I think casinos will only do what is required from them. I don’t expect them to go beyond that and treat gamblers like babies. We are still responsible for our own actions, and we also have to accept our losses and the decisions we made.

[YellowSwap]

Well this doesn't clear the fact that casinos and gamblers both wanted profits and profits only, what you said is coming from a place full of emotions, casinos aren't the once to look after gamblers like babies.

As grown ups I expect every gamblers to be responsible around gambling, no one cares if you are struggling with addiction or not, it's a problem inflicted on ones self, this is not online casinos problems.

They have a lot to do, rendering services to gamblers who knows what they are doing, not trying to baby sit every single souls that visited their online casinos.

[DubemIfedigbo001]

Because an addicted player who loses a lot of money will probably never want to participate in gambling again, and will become a testimony and example to other people, who will speak bad and stay away from any casino.

This is not true, addicted players give casinos their biggest income. They gamble irresponsibly and as a result throw lots of money into the casino. For most of them, when they are out of cash, they resort to debts, selling properties and even stealing to fulfill their uncontrolled desire to continue gambling. If they are lucky enough to quit gambling, they may take some time off the casino, but their story would not prevent another desperate gambler from being addicted the next minute.

So the casino that worries about its clients will be well respected, will have more credibility and more profit and will be a highlight in the segment, and with this many more players, the casino will be recognized because it worries about the mental and financial health of its players and doesn't only aim for profit, and will differentiate itself from its competitors positively, everyone wins, casino and players.
What's your opinion?

The casino is not there to babysit their clients, they are after their profits. It is the duty of the player to gamble responsibly. Do not have much trust in the self-exclusion program of casinos, because it would do very little to help with your addiction. You can always continue from another casino. You are supposed to be an adult and as such should be responsible for your total conduct on the casino.

Reputation of a casino is not based how they babysit their clients, but how they are committed to fairness their games, deposits and withdrawals and how they are guided by their own established T&C which bounds both players and casino itself.

[$crypto$]

Right in the casino there are self-exclusion? Why are casinos forced to think about the mentality of players? I don't think the casinos will care about anyone it's important a lot of people play that's what they want.

There is no casino that makes a difference, the same goal is to grow a casino with a high betting volume, then the profits are higher too, you should not expect more, because you yourself are the one making the decision.

[cryptomaniac_xxx]

Casinos have to worry about the mental and financial health of their players. There has to be a loss limit, lock the account for a week, a month, even forever. On the casino's page, visible for everyone to see on the casino's first page, bankroll management tips, psychological counseling available to help their clients. Because an addicted player who loses a lot of money will probably never want to participate in gambling again, and will become a testimony and example to other people, who will speak bad and stay away from any casino. So the casino that worries about its clients will be well respected, will have more credibility and more profit and will be a highlight in the segment, and with this many more players, the casino will be recognized because it worries about the mental and financial health of its players and doesn't only aim for profit, and will differentiate itself from its competitors positively, everyone wins, casino and players.

Yes, we have seen online casinos that have self-inclusion program. Although in the last couple of years, there have been issues as players even after undergoing this program, has somewhat was able to get back in that casino and play and lose big amount of money. So it raises a question whether casinos are really adhering and protecting players who have went into this program.

And in land base, I know someone what has been ban by casinos as he was reported by the wife. And he told me that he can't enter that casino any longer. Also there are this cards that you can find in landbase that says "gambling responsible". So both casinos have many programs for their players. But still, it could boils down on ourselves whether we will follow it or not.

What's your opinion?

If someone becomes addicted to gambling, it is completely their own decision or gambling activity. The gambler suffers financial losses as well as addiction, and it is never right to blame anyone else for this. The main purpose of running a casino is to make money, but a casino never forces a person to gamble. A gambler gambles aggressively out of greed, resulting in losses, so it is entirely their responsibility to control their emotions, it is very important for us to think realistically instead of emotionally.

Gambling is not a game to make money at all. It is better to play for entertainment only because there is no guarantee that the outcome will be completely predictable. You need to understand this well. If you know everything and gamble beyond your means and face financial losses, will you blame the casino for it or will you regret your mistake? It is very important for gamblers to understand these things well.

[TedMosby]

Most casinos offer self exclusion, but AFAIK, this is still a manual process. You need to contact support to activate it. I personally don't think this is enough. I think it would be better if we could also activate it ourselves without needing support.

I would also like to see features that let us set limits, like maximum caps of total deposit (daily, weekly, or monthly), or even hide specific games or game providers from our personal homepage.

However, I believe this is not something casinos want to implement because it would probably reduce their revenue in the end.

I have a suggestion. I'm sorry if something like this already exists because I've never seen it before. How about a mobile app, browser extension, or desktop software that lets us blacklist certain URL from our own access? We could set custom limits, and once a URL is blacklisted, it would no longer be accessible un certain time. Is this something that could be built easily with vibe coding?

[free-bit.co.in]

There has to be a loss limit, lock the account for a week, a month, even forever.

Hey, by saying lock the account for week you mean self-exclusion? or force locking by casino?

But it is not right to put all responsibility on casino.
Responsible gambling tools such as loss limit, self exclusion or cooling off period should be in every casino, but if you are an addicted player then you can move to another casino in minutes.
So it's not just about casino but about the entire industry and personal responsibility.

If you look at the economic aspect then you are right, in long run, controlled and trusted player are more profitable for casino. Because lifetime value of a satisfied customer is much higher than that of rapidly churning customer. Therefore responsible gambling is not only a matter of ethics but also a good business strategy. However, I do not fully agree with the idea of ​​mandatory account locking for every player.

[bitbollo]

at a certain point, they can't be considered as responsible for the amount you're going to lose.
likewise imagine people trading, there is a limit in amount they can risk in their venture?
for sure it would be nice to see an open approach, likewise showing the real chances of win or somewhat to help users to play less.
governements could also make their parts by offering a complete lawframe that can support both players and operators.
I would see this industry as something pretty new. We would see more advancements and a different approach in the future.

[Bryan jessy]

The fact remains that we can not dictate for a business on how it should be run because the aim of casinos is make profit same as the their players, though some casino has sell-exclusion and limit, but do not forget that this gamblers can not be totally controlled by the a casino, there are lot of casinos in existence that they can easily switched to if their first one limit them. It is really funny that it has gotten to the extent where we are trying to look for  ways to stop some persons from gambling recklessly normally this is something no human is supposed to be told, people are supposed to be cautious on things they do especially things relating to money, and been able control themselves without being reminded to.

[MAAManda]

Players are responsible for their own decisions, don't blame the casino platform if an individual or a group of players ultimately sees their lives ruined by gambling. Typically, casino platforms provide players with options for self-control, such as self-exclusion & other measures as seen in some of the responses in this topic, mate.

Whether or not to start a gambling session is entirely up to the player, don't blame the casino platform for losses, though the situation would be different if the issue involved fraud or similar matters.

What's your opinion?

Telling casinos to include risk amount and account blocking, players will sue them for violation of their rights to decision and also casino is a revenue generating business, financial business like Banks will naturally want you to put more money in your account and never touching them, so is casino they pay staffs make promotion, if it a health sector then we can say it should take care of the patient, but this a business profits is the interest not customer healthcare.

[criptoevangelista]

I believe that if casinos had pop-up messages showing daily wins and losses, it would be really interesting in helping people control themselves better. However, I think it's very unlikely any of them will actually do that, since the way casinos make money is precisely through players losing their money. Any addiction a person has is purely and exclusively their own fault, like when they try their luck playing roulette, for example. So it's something much deeper with countless variables, making it impossible for a casino to manage all of it.

That’s very true. The casino is a business and a lucrative one at that, and their number one motive is to make profit, and not to manage every player’s behavior. Inasmuch as these casinos have some responsible gambling tools like the self exclusion, deposit limits and other tools, the truth still remains that these tools can only be used if the gamblers decides to use them. If a gambler is already determined to gamble, even if they’re being limited, they can still easily move to another casino and continue.

As far as I know, there is a saying in casinos called the 80/20 Rule.
Simply put, the majority of casino revenue comes from only 5-20% of pathological or extremely addicted players.
In a more elegant way, you can call them Whales or VIP players.

If a casino really limits players deposits or blocks their accounts then they will cut off their biggest source of income.
I don't think any casino will do this, but you have to practice responsible gambling yourself

What's your opinion?

This theory of yours is dead on arrival because casinos will never do that. What you are saying is that they should act to kill their business because asking them to set loss limit without setting winning limit is tantamount to killing their business. Even though I hate to say it, the truth is that the casinos wants players to lose because your loss is their profit.

Furthermore, casinos do not have the ability to detect addicted player from their game player habit a lone hence, it is only when a problem player request for account closure or self-exclusion that they are obligated to act.

[KiaKia]

Any online or offline casinos that talk you out of gambling are chasing away customers from themselves, this is why they will never do such thing, the highest they can make available for gamblers is self exclusion and the rest is left for you.

The addicted gamblers are the most loved by these online casinos, it's your problem to face if you get addicted to gambling and for them it's another victory, I believe that casinos makes most money from addicted gamblers than other gamblers.

This is why gambling isn't for everyone, some people are too careless that they don't question their decisions until it's too late which shouldn't be so, there is consequences for every actions we make, it's called responsibility

[suzanne5223]

Casinos have to worry about the mental and financial health of their players.

Yes, based on the responsible gaming rules and regulations provided in some countries, which are based on the security of gamblers and protection against addiction, but how many gambling platforms truly follow the rules and regulations when making a profit is always the aim of every business owner.

What's your opinion?

It's something good, but as I said, there's already a program created for it; it is just that most gambling platforms don't follow it.
Even if they follow the concept, it is not that everyone wins because the gambling platform will always win, while addicted gamblers will lose.
