Topic: Gambling Streamers. Are they promoting fun or fueling addiction? - page 7. (Read 4025 times)

True, to be honest I don't know specifically about the clauses of the agreement they make with business actors such as casinos in making deals, but what is certain is clear as you said in your last idea that in this situation their priority is money, nothing else, they take advantage of the large number of followers to seek full profit without caring about any impact that will be experienced by the audience.

On the other hand, as long as I know about gambling, to be honest I have never seen streamers who broadcast while explaining to the audience about the dangers of gambling or the bad impacts that can be caused by gambling, the reason I am sure is because if they did that then the number of enthusiasts would be less and that means the commission they will get from the casino will not be too big.

For the sake of money, influencers tend to follow whatever their sponsors say. While I get their predicament, they really need to know what they're promoting and the possible outcomes. I think some influencers have already pulled back to keep their followers and recognize their past errors. Leaving a few comments is a smart move; it helps them see that their actions may be off-base, and it's ultimately their call to keep going or not.
As for us viewers, we also have the choice to unfollow and ignore them. Remember, we viewers play a huge role in their success; without us, their earnings will be affected. And certainly, this gives them an option after seeing their followers start to decline.

Well can't expect anything from those people since that is their main goal on why they are streaming. That's why I rarely watch those people streams especially if they are so obvious promoting some casino since for sure that we cannot get real feedbacks coming from them. Usually they post everything nice to attract people to gamble on that casino that's why instead wasting of time watching them I just go to other channels which I think more worth it to pay good attention.

To many streamers like that and its really better to unfollow them and leave some word on their comment section that people should do their own research before believing on what those streamer say so that those people could read those statement would get some time to realize that they need to search and do background to know more about what these people been promoting. But unfortunately there's less people doing this that's why lots of people still got tricked by this wicked streamers and these promoters always take advantage the innocence of new people in the scene.

That's their job so any offer to them will be taken as long as it's good amount of money.

And that's also not a surprising thing with them because we see these streamers are also targeted by phishing and hack. So, any offer they think is quite decent, they click links and forms to sign the deal or any other proceedings.

We see from that situation, you're right that all they care about is money.

Well, that's the problem nowadays, influencers and streamers don't even check the background of what they will support or advertise even though it could mean one or two people getting scammed in the process. All they care about is the money and as long as the client will pay, they will do everything to advertise them.
So, what can we do to avoid them? We can just unfollow them if it is on social media or we can report them so that maybe some actions will happen even though it might take long. I think this kind of industry will grow as everything is on the internet in this era and probably more people will be tricked.

They wouldn't care because it's only about the money that they can make from these poor audiences that they have.

It's all about the money that comes scattered from small people and with every small amounts that are gathered together, there goes the huge profits that they can make from them.

So, that's how the marketing works and the audience and reach that they're able to convince and convert into sales(deposit/gamble).

the sad reality is that most of them don't care much on the effect of what their audience are consuming from the advert they are running have on the audience, they just tell you what they are paid to say and when you make use of those platform, you might sometimes find out that the streamers overhyped those stuff and if you are the type that get carried away by cheap hype, you might have become the victim already before knowing. that you can always carry out your own research is enough advantage you have that should not allow you fall victim or give any excuse that it is because of streamer that you have gotten addicted to gambling. if the that are doing the advert on all their videos don't get addicted then you should not be addicted also.

sometimes it is good to develop some sort of thick skin to things such that regardless of the hype or how frequent you see certain thing, you are not moved to go above your limit. if you have disciplined yourself that regardless of how compelling the streamers are that you aren't going above your limit, then nothing will be able to drag you to become an addict.

That is why many people follow those influencer because they know that those influencer can give something to them. But in this matter, people should be wise following those influencer and not just follow what they say. They must filter of what is good and bad so they will not make a mistake so they can use the good thing that the influencer share and leave the bad one and not use it. The streamers just share what they get to their followers but actually, they also responsible with those followers as they watch the stream and maybe some of them use what the streamers says. People must be responsible to themselves and not become addicted to gambling if they often watch the streamers who shares about gambling.

They just accept offers and collaborations since it's not going to cost them a lot of them to promote. They'll just include it with their exposure or such and they get paid.

That's how influential they are and that's how much they cost their money because they've got a wider reach. But I wish that most of these influencers are going to check everything before they advertise just as you have said.

Since that they already have  money they don't need those ads and they wanted to protect their integrity, unlike with those other streamers where they are just aiming to earn views and visits they are all concerned about making money, most of those don't have any care about their viewers as long as they are receiving their rewards then they'll continue streaming videos and highlights those good side of the casino to gain more people to use the site and probably earn more money.

Well that's right, basically there is no coercion or even threats from the streamer or even the casino to you to gamble or make a deposit, in the end as you said that this depends on each person's personal decision and also of course depends on each person's readiness, simply if you are not ready then why do you do it? Isn't that action done with your own permission? of course, and then why should you regret it in the end? and it also really doesn't make sense to blame the casino or the streamers when it turns out that you lose a lot of money in gambling.

Basically everyone is given reason to think and at the same time to determine what is good and what is bad for them, so that means that those gamblers who are still trapped in the cycle of decline due to gambling are those people who really can't use their common sense properly

You're right, I could think that any person before using a casino, before starting to play, should do it because they want to have a different time, not because an influencer does it and tells them to, an influencer can do anything, advice or something, but it's like you say, it's up to you if you want to do it, it's not an obligation, it's all our decision, that's why Influencers should be given the position they are, if we are mature enough we have to realize that we Should not let ourselves be manipulated by them or anyone else, some just want to enter under a referral link , they are only looking for that to win, but that is something that should be seen at once, all those details are the ones that we Should Always see.

We are really that guilty sometimes about being greedy and thats why it would really be ending up on excessive dealing into something that turned out to be non ethical anymore on which you do accept everything without knowing its legitimacy, but of course on every action will really be having that corresponding consequences on which it will really be that something will be resulting into losing popularity or you will really be not trusted by your followers if thats the case. You might be able to make money at first but once that credibility will be gone, then you will really be having a hard time or would be never be able to get that trust anymore on which it will really be affecting overall your job as an influencer. So it will really be just that depending on you on how you would really be making up things accordingly.

As for bringing up that addiction then we cant deny that it could really be fire up that urge to gamble specially if you've seen these influencers do make huge amount of money at the time that they are playing. You will really be having these thoughts that you can be able to easily do it just the same on the things that they were able to achieve. On the moment that will be trying out to copy them then this will really be causing up that kind of impulsiveness and desperation specially that you are trying out to catch up those wins that they had made out.

There are many types of influencers, there are those who accept all kinds of game and casino ads and do not verify if the casinos are legitimate or authentic, they are only Interested in money, others are like CR7 and Mr Beast who have so much money that they are not looking for that, in fact these two have done collaborations, so you can say that these people are very different in what they are looking for, I have never seen some of them look for people to go to a asino , however I am sure that if they do such a thing, that casino will have a lot of traffic.

Actually it is really just that depending on a certain individual into the actions that they are making. They arent that forcing you to watch them and arent forcing you to make deposits into a site.
You are the ones who do make out such decision on making up some deposits and its everything according into your own will. Therefore, it wouldnt really be that just right that you will really be
pointing out your fingers at them and blaming them on why you had lost up too much money or simply being addicted? Well, its true that they might be able to influence you but if you are someone
whose really that good when it comes to self control and life decision making then you are the ones who do put up yourself on such condition and not them.

Both of you are right there's no need to follow whatever the influencer are trying to direct his or her viewers it's always a choice but we can't deny the fact that there are fans and followers who really admire those people thinking that with what they're Sharing can help them, especially in terms of gambling those streamers earned the attention of those followers aside from attracting them to sign up they also attract them to deposit and play the game that they've played.

Easy money from referrals or money from paid ads that's how it was for the streamers side, they don't need to worry about anything as most of them not all but most of those who accepts gambling ads are after the money that they've going to received.

You're right in what you say, in fact there are many in the world that one becomes fond of, the fact of following them and supporting them does not mean that you have to do everything they do or say to do , and it's not because sometimes you don't want to but because there aren't the resources to make the bets that they make or something like that, I think that very few people in the world can do it, those who are wealthier, I really don't follow many, the only Influencers that I like are a few , in fact Mr Beast , and now CR7 who I think are going to do a collaboration Together on YouTube, and the Only thing and to do what CR7 does the most is play soccer and I don't even Want that.

I think players needs to understand that those streamers are also streaming to gain a wide community so that they can monetize their community. If they have had a good number of subscriber, they could be offered the job to promote a game in a casino which they could lie to their audience that the game is very rewarding meanwhile they are not playing the game with a real account. So, at some point, I think the streamers ends up to deceive some player that believe their lies.

Gambling streamers are literally out there to make these things seem better,easier than they really are;even if they actually work and exists,Thier recommendations to gambling odds paints them achievable and simple and they just want to promote learning and create revenue for their own money.

It would be situational but if we do speak up literally then you would really be that definitely be stopping on playing on the time or moment that you have lost it all or simply literally cant play because you dont have money to spend. I do agree that when you are on a winning situation then you will really be having that kind of hard decisions whether you would really be that stopping or would really be that trying out to play even more on which this is really that likely to happen. There would really be those people who do might able to stop when they are winning but most of the time they will really be continuing to play just to have more.
As for marketing and exposure on gambling ads and other stuffs then it will really be that recommended that you shouldnt really be that making yourself that being get hyped up or being optimistic.
You would really be having that problem on the moment that addiction would really be that affecting on a certain individual. This is where problems do usually start up on where at the moment that you cant be able to control yourself on playing because you have been addicted into it. Streamers are really just that doing their job and they do get paid for that. If you are someone who do get paid for advertising then
you will definitely be doing it because earning money does always matter or something which is really that important.
