Topic: Gambling discussion effect - page 4. (Read 626 times)

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

It's a good thing that you've learnt meaningful things that could help you in your gambling journey if you decide to participate in it, but my advise is that incase you decide to have a trial of any gambling platform you should make sure you apply those stuffs you've learnt so as not to make mistakes or fall victims to dubious casino requirements like you said and also any gambling activities you don't understand It's better you leave it and focus on the one that's easier for you to understand and apply the strategies you've learnt from various threads, for instance im not too familiar with slot games, not interested in poker as well but i love sports especially football so i focus on that because I'm familiar with the sports, it's rules and also a fan of a team, not that's my gambling speciality so i focus on that instead of wanting to try out my luck of slots or poker games, one thing i like about the forum it's that enables one to get information about different areas of life and that's what i do most times when im on the gambling board to read and learn from peoples mistakes on different thread also to get informations about some strategies that's worked for some members and try to study it, also put it to a good use.

Yes, I agree with you that the signature campaign does not oblige anyone to gamble. We only need to know and understand about gambling so we can enter the discussion forum.
But if we have never done or have experience playing gambling, it is very difficult for us to understand gambling itself. And what we make money in the discussion forums is just fiction because we never dive into it to see the reality that exists in gambling.

I agree with you and besides that, discussing in this forum can add insight and knowledge in the world of gambling and can also make me a wiser gambling player. Because in several discussions on this forum a lot has been discussed about self-control of gambling activities that are carried out.

There's nothing customary about gambling discussions so we know the breadth of many people here.
My gambling activity has not increased despite frequent discussions here I already have responsibility and control over everything that is done, so make this for fun not to increase your gambling activity.

OP should never be forced if it makes you feel pressured, I am in gambling for fun especially in sports betting.

I must admit that once you are an active poster in the gambling board, it has a way of getting a hold of you. You want to implement some of the casino tips and tricks. For example, I learned so much about KYC requirements and issues gamblers encounter with those dubious casinos by just reading the threads on them here. I have also learned about the alternative to chasing losing here. The hardest part of it all is trying to apply the slots tips to winning. It has not worked well for me. I do not play Poker or any other game casino game often so I don't venture into that but I have learned a great deal about them and can make meaningful contribution to any poker discussion. Basically, this board is more of like a gambling education board.

Nothing affevts me in this discussion except for topics regarding scam websites. But I do understand that urge 'coz we all want to earn money 'coz for sure that is one of the reasons why we're all here. But as we understand the concept of gambling, we would realize that we all have different luck and fate. Some would be lucky enough to win big time upon their start in particular with 'beginner's luck' but there are people who got old waiting for that instance. Indeed we can minimize the risk of losing by doing some analyses but nothing is assured in gambling. It is okay to be envy those who experienced winning but never let out emotions play for us.

It feels good that you've got a positive impression from another gambler to make you want to give a try, but nevertheless don't forget about the chances in playing bet as fifty fifty, you win or you loose, but that isn't the major concern here than the satisfaction with pleasure you stand to gain whenever you are gambling, i also like the fact that you realised having a personal strategy could also help if one can develop any.


Gambling discussion is just a simple way of bringing what we have experienced from gambling into discussion in ither to pass message across to other gamblers, for us to learn from others experience as well as relating with other gamblers concerning gambling activities.
