lol this is funny because they banned the whole forum instead of the gambling site . the forum has nothing to do with it if i were to ask . now this affects forum users from russia . by the way is op from russia ? or he is only concern because if he is from that country i wonder why he can still access this site but its possible to access block website if we are going to use vpn and other bypassing tools . as some sites here on my place are also blocked but they didnt know that i can still access it . still its a big loss for those who are inocent users that dont know who to do this idea

This is shocking and surprising at the same time because I have never seen a forum getting banned because of advertisements, and in coming days I believe that we shall find more information about it. Though VPN is always an option but I feel VPN users can be traced, hence if anyone has any safe VPN recommendations which our Russian members can use kindly post those names below.
Using Tor would be enough for them to browse the forum. I think the only way they get traced or track down from their country is if they have other accounts from different sites and use the same names over and over. Read a lot of article about Russia planning to banned cryptocurrency in their country!
Main reason? just because or maybe they are afraid that the banks are cannot handle the regulation of the cryptocurrency in their country.
The banned might not be cause by the gambling advertisement but could also be the factor here but it would be useless if the cryptocurrency is already banned in their country.
It could be because of online gambling overall and a lot of bitcoin casino threads can be found in the forum. Main reason? just because or maybe they are afraid that the banks are cannot handle the regulation of the cryptocurrency in their country.

strange that they block a crypto forum all because there were gambling ads. they could just bann the gambling sites since online gambling is illegal to them. a message could be banning cryptocurrency 
A countermeasure which they think is effective on their end. But if I'm also them, I'll just completely block the websites directly. March 26, 2020, 05:23:03 AM

Indeed. I think that the ads is not the reason why the blacklisted the forum.
In the end, they could just block the cryptocurrency ads not banning the whole forum.
Cryptocurrencies are what they do not want...
Banning the forum is not a good decision by them. I know there are many Russians here on the forum. They will not be liking this decision. I am sure you can still access the forum through VPN if you are in Russia. Anyone who is in Russia can tell us the exact situation.
This really affected a lot of users since gambling is in demand for several betting sites. Russian residents is the huge part of gambling industry whether it's physical or virtual type. Accessing through vpn can be inefficient at all, because the security of the country is very strict and they're aware that through this kind of portal called to be illegal access due to certain restrictions.

It seems because of this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitstarz-10-1620600 I don't speak Russian though so CMIIW.
I thought online gambling is okay there, but now I realize it is illegal. But so many Russian here
Anyway, just use VPN...

You mean talking about gambling(gambling discussion) caused a whole site to be blocked or is betting banned in the Country?
Well, if it's about BitStarz, I think the betting company should be handled by the law in the lawful way.

Domain "bitcointalk.org" was blocked yesterday, 25.03.2020 by Roscomnadzor.
The reason for inclusion in the blacklist was a letter N 2-6-20/2017-07-13-1796-AИ from the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation dated 13.07.2017.
Additional information about this case can be found here: https://reestr.rublacklist.net/record/1250933/
As you can find out from the link above, they blocked this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitstarz-10-1620600 in which was discussion about BitStarz casino scamming people.
It seems that gambling discussion caused tax services of Russia to ban whole cryptocurrency forum.
