So we are talking about your signature and your website here huhhh? Nice advertisement trick Wink.
Just tried open the Site and its looks heavy to load for me, no mobile optimization it's ok . the idea creating faucet website based on gambling itself not bad. Goodluck.

If you're getting free coins from a faucet, and that site has a casino, which DOESN'T allow you to deposit ANY funds, is it considered as gambling if you use/play any of those games?

Been trying to figure out this thing for a week, but there's so much contradiction for both answers, so I am not sure how to pick "the right" answer, if there is one.

I wouldn't consider this being paid to gamble. Gambling from a faucet can take up a lot of time, and you know what they say "time is money." Ive also noticed these types of sites your talking about are just purly for advertising and usually have a massive house edge. Best to just find one that you can deposit and do so. Good luck.

Not sure if you know what are you talking about, because you're spamming/farming posts.

How do you suggest me to make the game more interesting? Roll Eyes
What about if you add more games into your website? I love playing on website that have various of games that I can choose. :-D
(Keep it between us, but I'm planning to do that in the near future! Will add more games!)


adding more games is one of the good idea that we can get free bonuses to earn or to use it in gambling..
I think combination of gambling and faucets are will be rise(shine) in the future.
I hope this project will be done soon..

I consider it gambling. Some people said that there are no risk factor as you got that BTC for free. In my opinion it doesn't matter if you got that money for free or if you did something for that (actually watching ads falls to the "doing something" category). That money is already yours, you can withdraw it if you want, but if you risking your very own sats by playing there, then that's gambling.

I too agree with this. Many users find it no harm in gambling the free bonus but even though they consider it a risk-free bet, they are still considered as a user who gambles the amount.
If they lose it while gambling, that's also consider a loss. There are websites as well that offer bonuses to users and it's compulsory for the users to gamble and withdraw the money. In that case, they are paid to gamble.

I think I have seen this in actual casinos, or at least there was a rumor that in some Vegas casinos they paid some people to stand in some of the machines and just keep rolling all day, because when people saw other people playing, then the people outside would be more inclined to join too, just to make it look more crowded than it was. I think this is actually a good idea for new casinos to get the ball rolling. Successful casinos don't need this as they get legit clients all the time.

With the only difference, casinos rig their games to favor them. Not the players/users.

In this case, my site is rigged to favor the users/players, not the site Smiley

Playing a dice game with a normal 1% house edge is a gamble, but it is still a gamble even if it has a jackpot that is huge enough to make the game to give a positive EV. So I think your site should still be considered as a gambling site.
Would it be still gambling if the house edge was 0%?

When Primedice 3 first rolled out, it had a PvP page allowing players to gamble against each other and PD took nothing from it (no fee or commission). IMHO, it is still gambling when the house edge is 0% because you are still risking some money for some profit.

It's of course gambling because you "earned" that money doing something, and even if the process was "passive" it became your money at that point, the same kind of money you earn in your daily job even if it's a very small fraction of it. And then you decide to gamble it. That's it. There's nothing wrong with gambling though, just enjoy yourself and don't bet what you can afford to lose, really, consider that money gone, similar as if you would pay for a movie ticket. It's all entertainment.

Yes, you are gambling - gambling for free essentially. That money was given to you for free. It is now yours and you gamble it. Any winnings are yours. If you lose, you lose that money that was given to you for free.

Yup, it's considered as a gambling. Even though you're not spending your money, but you're wasting your time.
Time = Money
So if you are theoretically spending your money
What if time doesn't exist? Smiley

Quote
Quantum “Theory” Proves That Time Does Not Exist, at the fundamental level and shows that our concept of time, as thought of as a linear passage of events is totally wide of the mark, and in fact there is no mark.

Interesting thought there. U want to discuss about theories and stuff in gambling section ya ? -.-

So if time doesn't exist and there is no mark then what is the alternative measurement. we are not moving along time-space axis ? give me some reference to your statement to look up then we might need to start a topic elsewhere my friend.. it will be a big discussion.
Everyone is telling his own theory, so I'm telling my own theory.

If we agree with Einstein's theory, that everything is relative, then sure, it doesn't exist.

"Time" is man made measurement which doesn't exist in the nature/universe.

But you're 100% right, this discussion can go waaaay far if we start talking about Quantum theories.

time exist or not, still can convert to money anyway. put those theories here is completely off-topic and ridiculous, wrong direction. i don't believe that u guys even can't see it for yourselves.

Yes lol great to see some physics used in gambling, and if you just read the thread title, you would get confused, as why will someone pay you to gamble ?
