Topic: Gambling Streamers. Are they promoting fun or fueling addiction? - page 10. (Read 4025 times)

But I think that they still promote service, than fun or fueling addiction. Everyone makes their own decision to gamble for fun, to earn, and turning addicted is very individual. Everyone has their own vision on gambling. For example, when someone look at tomato, he imagine ketchup, but other person think about tomato juice. Notice how streamers focus on getting fun, streams are always fun. Streams are never about earning, as they dont start stream with saying «right now I will try to earn $1000» for example. As well as they dont focus on «try gambling to become like me». Everyone themselves takes decision what they start gambling for. 

Indeed, when a gambler starts to aim to win more money the adrenaline inside them increase that's added up for them take longer time and more money to spend for thier gambling activities, and yes, it triggers addiction inside them as they wanted to increae their potential earnings the way they see those streamers did.

That kind of influenced affects those people who loves following someone's else journey not realizing that everything they've witness are all just for the sake of advertising.

Of course I think it is a definite possibility for someone to become addicted when their intention and purpose in gambling is to seek or pursue winning money, in the end it is clear that consciously or unconsciously their behavior towards gambling will definitely lead them to addiction where the worst point is when one day they experience a really significant downturn in their lives, in this case yes streamers can really trigger various downturns by showing something that looks tempting which triggers a change in perspective in a wrong direction that makes people who watch become so sure that they can also get victory like the streamers have managed to achieve. Therefore on the other hand this is a lesson for us that in life we ​​must always be able to use common sense and a rational perspective every time we find new things in life so that we know about what and how the activities we are facing are actually.

I think that it depends on which casino they promote. There are casinos that are very shady and do everything in their hands to get people by promoting fake sessions and promises but there are casinos that play with fair marketing rules and really share the real experience instead of a made-up story.

The true story is that most of them are fueling addiction and great examples of that are social media influencers, especially those who influence adolescence. During teen ages, it's considered cool to be gambling but in reality, it isn't. Teens follow their idols very much, they try to style like them, have similar hairstyles, manners, and do what they do. When influencers who have control over this group start gambling and promote fake wins, they are really fueling addiction instead of promoting a product.

And that's why you will see young folks gambling even when their guidance ain't doing it , because of what he encountered on the internet via social medias , because most folks like to showcase wins in there social handle just to lure people to gambling and some mainly endup ruining their lives.

Because they where no one to tell them the disadvantages of gambling but rather they where been filled with the advantages alone (e.g how folks made millions by hitting the jackpot). So which Made them to approach gambling the wrong way and may eventually endup been an addict.

But to know that this is really just that only their job on which simply means that they are really that doing on where they do make money and we do know that
this is where they do really make some income. They dont really mind about others be saying whether its ethical or not as long they could be able to make money then this what matter the most.
The most common issue on here is that when an individual do suffer out some case of gambling addiction and losing up tons of money then they do really love on pointing out fingers into those people.

It is really that normal that they will really be spreading out exposure since gambling is really that indeed a profitable business, anything needs up exposure and this isnt really that new anymore
or something which is really that standard. On personal point of view then you are the ones who do needed up such control.

Such players who end up creating advise on books or podcast begin to earn through gambling. Just like the steamers are the real winners in gaming, because they benefit from their viewers and followers. As for people who depend on winning via casino as a result of the streamer's content, they're most likely vulnerable to compulsive gambling. Due to the multiple wins published by these streamers. Which are quite unreal.

without a doubt, they're running some sort of promotional campaigns for the casinos... You haven't really outlined much details about these streamers, given that this is not even possible if they have a lesser number of followers on the app.
Well, if anyone still wanna argue on this fact, let's all analyse by their performances - I haven't watched any of these streamers, but y'all tell us - are they winning more often than it should be?
Just like what you said on the other paragraph, most of them aren't profound gamblers so what's their interest in streaming live on different platforms? It's definitely gonna be an arranged testnet account -- unless otherwise, this might just be another promotional resolution plan.

So promoting for fun? Who does that? They don't even care whose gonna fall for their trick -- whatever happens, it's for the betterment of the casinos.

When it comes into potntial addiction though then this is something that there would really be no exemption when it comes into this aspect on which we are all prone into it. It will really be just that basing up on a certain individual whether they would really be that mindful into the things that they are dealing into or wouldnt really be that caring at all when it comes to particular risks specially if we do speak about potential addiction on which we know that this will really be able to happen on the time or moment that you do find yourself having interest on dealing or playing with it. The main problem for those who do aim for more money is that they dont really care about on the potential addiction that they might encounter on the moment that they do play gambling..

We do know that companies will really be paying up someone to make that kind of exposure and since we are living on an era on where everything could really be advertised online then it will really be something that pertaining about those kind of marketing stuff on doing it on social media on which all of people are really that exposed into. Streaming are very common on which it isnt really just that limited to gambling
alone but also in other businesses as well.If you wont be careful into your actions then you are putting yourself into  trouble.

I can infer two points from what you said, the first is Desperation, it has always been an issue of gamblers, and the more we are desperate for money, the more losses and addiction issues arise. I don't give an excuse for being idiotic in gambling, no one should, as adults, we should not be too aggressive in any of our approaches and no matter how expected we were, if it wasn't happening as we expected, we should adjust immediately without giving excuses, the weakness starts from there.

The second is that the last character found a purpose for himself. I've always said that anyone who is addicted to gambling should first be investigated whether or not he has a good job, if he doesn't, then finding one for him might be the best approach to easier stop gambling. The lack of financial source(s) aggravated the zeal to gamble in a bid to make money.

We are vulnerable to addiction though. When someone puts his hope to winning a sum thru gambling and then dedicate his time and money to a point where he thinks there is no U-turn anymore, its harder to convince himself to stop while he believes to the streamer. The realization would come when all the dust settles and money is almost impossible to earn back.

There are gamblers who successfully ended his gambling spree and found something else to do like releasing a self help book    Gambling Addiction & Recovery books.

Yes, I am sure that is the intention and purpose of the people who come to gambling whose initial arrival was due to the influence of the promotional display scenario carried out by the gamblers who indirectly brainwashed the people who saw it and triggered an increase in their beliefs and confidence that they would also be able to get something that was successfully obtained by the streamers, but of course that is the wrong mindset, because in the end what will happen is that they are the ones who will lose a lot of money.

So it is very appropriate to say that in fact the accounts used by the streamers are accounts that have been designed behind the scenes which means that their victory is the result of manipulation. On the other hand, what is worrying is that they are people who have personalities that are easily provoked or easily emotional about everything that goes wrong with what they expect, which of course ultimately makes impulsive and aggressive behavior very possible for them to do until they finally lose all the money they have, which is very possible in a short time.

Which is very possible when greed takeover inside a person's mind, gambler who follows streamers mostly have that intention to have an edge against the house, thinking that with the shares strategy from known streamers will give them benefits, not realizing that it's all about the casino who give that access to make it more looks real.

Those gamblers who got attached and unable to control their emotions will suffer to the point that they will regret why they fall to this kind of trap from streamers who only look for their paychecks.

What we see from streamers and accounts that can raise their millions from gambling, it is a strong influence and structure from the bookmaker, this is a show and advertisement of gambling products, the casino will license a bookmaker account, just play and win, even add a withdrawal to a bank account but this scenario is too classic, young people only need to skim through a few shared lines to know that this content is just a sample advertisement, not truthful. Addiction can only be blamed on the inability of the conscious mind to truly control greed, the obsession in the heart is the problem.

It is not only the youth that can be affected, users of different ages can be excited to try gambling without having any previous experience in placing bets. It is true that younger people are more receptive to new experiences without considering all the consequences, but we should always remember that a large percentage of video viewers do not have the full capacity to deal with different content online.

Casinos contract with streamers to publish promotional content for them on streaming platforms, so streamers or casinos cannot be blamed as long as there are platforms that allow such content to be published.

Gambling streamers are doing more of fueling addiction than promoting fun. The internet is flooded by young people and they are the ones that are more vulnerable to this addiction. If a streamer does a live video showing how he's making millions of dollars from a casino game even if those wins are probably fake, a lot of young people would be interested and this is how they can get lured into this. Gambling streamers are into what they are doing basically to promote their page, it's also an advertisement for the casinos that they are using, everything they do is all about making money.

I agree.

This hits more the younger generation. And those that have become addicted at their mid-age or adults and professionals, you ask them and the majority of them have became a gambler once then when they were younger.

But then when they grew older and have the occupation and money, that's how they're enjoying things that they cannot afford before. As for these younger generation, they've got a lot of opportunities nowadays so they can be hook for as long as they can and easily without having that much to be worried with money.

The influence for decision making is easier on them because they have younger minds and lesser experience in life and gambling.

That is true, most of them if not all are setup accounts and they're given to entice people that gambling on that particular casino they are streaming can be lucrative because that's how the streamer is able to win.

But other than that, it's all about the actual results and we all know and aware of the quote, 'the house always wins'.

This quote is never told by the streamers because they have also to track the registers that they're bringing to the casino that they are sponsored with.

Fun and addictions goes hand in hand and for sure this situation of gambling streemers, what they does and how it affects their viewers is somewhat very important for us to discuss about, but the main point of things is that we also have to understand they stands in this whole thing, from the casino point of view, streemers are they advertiser's and they work is to attract gambler's into the casino, and for sure whatever the results of they activities is on the audience is really not of great concern to them so long as they deliver the desired traffic to the casino it's all good for the casino, and on the other hand the streemers aim is to get paid at the end of each video session.

On the side of the viewers, I think they need to create that gap and build the understanding that will guide them while having fun following the streemer video or playing game's and to avoid addictions along the line, so it all up to the viewers not to get carried away and become addicts, gambling is all for fun and nothing more but with fun comes possible addictions.

Indeed, with those kind of luxurious lifestyle they managed to influence people who are following them, given those streams videos about winning and enjoying those luxurious lifestyle surely divert the attention of those avid followers, they all being trick by a kind of gesture that the streamers are portraying, with good results from the stream videos it attracts young minds that wanted to aim that same outcomes.

They bring the attention and they will get something good from people who believe and trusting them, though they are just aiming for the money but they're manage to gain that connection from their viewers .
