This is exactly my point as the site online or the adverts are not the problem, of course one thing is sure and that is the fact that it doesn't matter how many of the ads you block more will still come up provided you are on the internet every day because the gambling sites needs visibility and as such they will always pay for adverts as they have what it takes to place those adverts.

It's firstly important to take a self decision to want to curb it and then we can start from there, this will then lead to you taking conscious steps such as reducing your capital and there rest of it in oder to keep your gambling habit in check, then also keeping away from friends or environment that encourage you to gamble for a while too will go a long way to help.

Setting priority on things that should be prioritized firstly such as your necessities and basic amenities and not using the money ment for them to gamble, above all it's very important to make a self and conscious decision because if there is no will to want to curb it then it's definitely not to work as this effort are necessary and need to be made consciously and gradually.

The real change starts from within, doesn't it? The crucial factor is the individual's free will in the form of a deliberate decision. Ads are everywhere on the web, and trying to block them completely would be an immense challenge. It is like trying to empty an ocean with a bucket. There will always be more

You're absolutely right that we can't just ignore the ads; instead, we need to adapte our responses to them. Cutting gambling money, avoiding gambling temptations, and prioritizing what are important are practical ways to gain control. Each journey starts with a single, decisive step. Change doesn’t happen overnight. Slowly but surely, with strong willpower and perseverance, one can overcome this impulse and take back control of their lives. It's all about making decisions and acting on them, isn't it?

Of course that's true, in gambling it is true that those who can change for something better are none other than themselves (gamblers), if they basically don't want to stop then they won't try various ways to get out of the zone, and some advice from others will be in vain. As you said, change will always start from within, and that's from their own sincerity and determination. Obviously, all casinos will never give up on promotion, and if you remove and block one of the ads that you find it's probably a waste because I think you'll still gamble. So I think not only that, but you also have to be more serious in making changes, even by blocking some ads it will be useless if your conscience still wants to gamble and your mind still continues to imagine winning.

Making a decision I think is not a difficult thing, but what is difficult is when you actually carry out the plan that you have made, and of course to stop completely in an instant it seems impossible, so like you said everything must go slowly. Limiting your budget is always the best way to reduce your losses and it's definitely better to prioritize the real needs of your life than to keep looking for vague results.

The living environment is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for someone to stop their habit. Disabling gambling site advertisements in your browser settings is not effective if you still hang out with friends who often gamble. As long as you hang out with people who are gambling, this habit is very difficult to stop, especially if you have money to gamble with. The desire to continue playing cannot be buried all at once, it needs to be done gradually by reducing capital for gambling.
Consider the most important needs of life, such as food needs, electricity costs, water and other unexpected needs. Gambling habits can be reduced by reducing capital for gambling, if done consistently, over time it will be successful, although it is not a 100% guarantee, at least 80% will be successful in achieving the determination to stop.

Staying in bitcointalk I guess also can't make a gambler stop because casinos are swarming this forum Grin

As long as a gambler is not yet addicted, he can easily get out and stop gambling. It's those who are heavily into it already who are going to struggle to prevent themselves from playing. They are the ones who even if they set the exclusion program of casinos, come back with another account and blame the casino for not banning their IP. I guess the casino will start banning IP as a sort of help for them.

Maybe that could happen because there are many cases like that that we can see. those who get banned from playing then create a new account and start playing again. make a deposit but when they want to make a withdrawal, the Casino finally suspects the account and carries out further investigations and in the end, the new account will definitely be frozen again.
maybe the casino will implement an IP ban, but they will definitely be cheated again by such gamblers.

Yes, that method is like forcing him to leave everything behind, including not allowing him to access the internet. But it was all for his good because he was difficult to tell the easiest way. But maybe that is the last thing that can be done to get him out of gambling so he can build a new habit that will turn him into someone who is not dependent on the internet. But if he can still be told and advised to do other things, there is no need to do that because he still desires to try to do other things so he can start diverting his mind from gambling.

you are right, that means there is still awareness that can be sought to make such gamblers aware. but that can only be done gradually. trying to give him activities to keep him busy is probably the best option. at least it reduces the intensity of him being online at the casino.

I doubt casinos will ban IP. I was just kidding.
Banning IP will not make money for casinos. Besides the gambler will just move on to another casino and play there so it would make sense for casinos to keep them registering. Withdrawing large funds will be the concern of casinos, not those gamblers who register and deposit. The only thing that the casino will do is warn users not to get hooked into gambling and if you do call someone to talk to, that's just it. It's the gambler who shall eventually have control over his habit.

In this case it is actually very easy for those who want to leave their gambling addiction in various ways that they can do and if some methods are not able to stop the addiction I think that person should be taken away to a place far from the gambling industry and not given internet access so that they don't can access online gambling.
In this way it will look very bad to pressure someone or like imprisoning someone but this is the last step for gambling addicts who find it very difficult to recover from their addiction and if this method really still doesn't make a difference maybe a harsher method will be used.

Almost all people are now addicted to online gambling so you cannot force someone to stop gambling if he is a big gambler. You need to have a lot of money to gamble frequently but you cannot become a gambler just by visiting the sites. On the other hand gambling sites will entice people to gamble by showing the lure of ads in various ways. However you can turn off all those ads you want from your device through the settings so you can do that if you like. Gambling is legal in some countries but why? Because their income is high and so they can spend their money anywhere there is no fault here but there is the profit of the government of that country. Good cause of correction Always keep yourself busy in some work.

Forcing some body who have already tested gambling money to stop gambling is very difficult, but some people don't know, some one can stop gambling when it have a job that will take most his time and I believe that gambling have to deal with a spirit because ìf you are a gambler and you want or decided to stop gambling sometimes will push you again to gamble again, so what I want us to know is that the only thing that can reduce an addictive gambler to stop gambling is only when it is engaged in job that deals with time, so with the job the will be no chance to make predictions of games to gamble.

Ads can be sometimes distracting as well and yes he can turn it off in his browser there's a lot of available extension out there and also he can use other browser like brave it has already a feature that blocks all ads and unnecessary things such as ads and spy tracker. It is hard to stop things that you already know and already have in your life and enjoy it but we should know when to stop things.

If you set into mind that you will quite gambling because it is not a good thing and imagine its bad characteristics then you can forget it easily. But if you are trying again and again in the hope to be successful one day then this thing in my opinion is better in other fields but not in gambling. Parents should keep check on their children's activities and if they find their involvement in such things then from start they have to stop them.

However, it will depend on how someone can stop their gambling activities because, with the many temptations of gambling, only a few gamblers can really stop it. Meanwhile, other gamblers are still gambling and do not want to stop gambling. And when they already have a gambling addiction, it will be even more difficult to stop it because it means they have to completely abandon the gambling activities they have been involved in for years and that will not be easy for them. And if that happens to young people, they must get assistance from their parents so they don't feel alone in their recovery program.

In this case it is actually very easy for those who want to leave their gambling addiction in various ways that they can do and if some methods are not able to stop the addiction I think that person should be taken away to a place far from the gambling industry and not given internet access so that they don't can access online gambling.

I gamble with a low frequency and I do not think I am addicted to gambling. However, despite taking every piece of advice, if I had difficulty quitting gambling or reducing the frequency of my gambling, I would seek professional support. Psychologists or psychiatrists can help people with gambling addiction. If people with addiction cannot control themselves, they may experience social, financial and psychological problems. Getting help from professionals can help them get their life back.

Remember that nothing is initiate suddenly more serious but initiate stage is normal after which everything get worse. If a person is saying that he is just using little money and gamble for fun then it can be assumed that he will be accurately do this but not all the time because little addiction can be altered into worse addiction after the time flows steadily.

If you set into mind that you will quite gambling because it is not a good thing and imagine its bad characteristics then you can forget it easily. But if you are trying again and again in the hope to be successful one day then this thing in my opinion is better in other fields but not in gambling. Parents should keep check on their children's activities and if they find their involvement in such things then from start they have to stop them.

Addiction is a big problem psychologically and physically, we don't want it to happen to us. But can be possible when we lose control of our gambling habits especially if we are desperate to win and if we are chasing our losses, it causes trouble in our mind and affects our mental capability to determine whether our action is right or wrong. It needs someone who is professional in that situation to help because this is not a casual situation that is easy to manage on our own.
The only way to help ourselves from getting into addiction is to know our limits. I know it was hard because we are in the internet era where it is easy to gain access to online gambling but if we really have to control ourselves earlier, I'd see no problem.

The industry doesnt want you to have control. They gain from your carelessness. Its no accident that the number of online gambling sites has increased in the digital age, preying on our weaknesses. You are correct in saying that it is now easier than ever to become addicted in the age of the internet. Most people fall into this evil loop unconsciously; its like a trap set for the foolish.

However, if you're alert and aware of the threats, you can defend yourself. Recognize the significance of establishing limits. That is the initial action. Avoid letting the industry's siren song pull you farther in. A strong will and awareness are the first steps in the fight against addiction.

Want to get rid of gambling as demand is at a point where it is difficult to refrain from. In addition to these the way to prevent gambling addiction will depend on the person's own wishes. If there is any other emotional stress problem or big event beyond the gambling, it should also be well analyzed. Whenever you want to gambling online, you will work away from the phone. You can go somewhere for a few days or go to relatives' house the last thing is to stay away from the phone so that the gambling will return to normal.

If you want to stop gambling addiction, the first step you must take is to tell the people closest to you, such as your family or wife, about your situation. They will give you control to avoid gambling, whether online gambling or land casinos. If that's not enough, then limit yourself from accessing deposits on gambling sites, maybe you need to delete mobile banking and empty all crypto assets so that when the urge to gamble arises you don't have access to deposits on gambling sites. It does take hard work and determination to stop gambling addiction, but it is not impossible, it is better to stop before you lose everything

Many of us recommend changing places occasionally to curb gambling. But if the gambler goes to the same place and does the same work in online then there is no point in changing the place. Similarly, if a gambler shares his gambling with other family members, he will get a lot of support from the family. But the biggest thing that works for this is personal awareness. If the gambler can do deep research about gambling and gets a good idea about it then he can definitely control himself. But many people can not control their emotion and for them pressure from family can help them from addiction.

Or just make yourself busy so that you won't think of playing online. Sometimes I just phone my phone on the other room, not beside me so that I won't think of depositing and playing. Although I have my laptop to play, I prefer my games though using my phone.

No sure why is this so, but I guess because I can even play when I was lying down in my bed and obviously I can't do that with my laptop. So just to minimized my online gambling, I put my phone away from me. I don't bother someone calling me and not answering it. I can just check it back someone from the other room like my kids calling me if they see that my phone is ringing.

Thats really good, because most of the common man into online gambling prefer spending the time on smartphones. Keeping it away gives good result, and I also follow the same practice. Another thing I never keep my gambling account logged in or have my password saved. Doing so will ease me to get into the platform and gamble whenever required. Keeping the account logged off wants me to login to use it. You could follow this too.

Online gambling are at the best, because we get the best access without any lag on any devices we use. So, we need to be cautious and have limitations set. If not, things could go bad and losing our funds doesn't take much time. At times we get the urge to gamble, by the time we should deviate ourselves towards something else. This could help in staying away from addiction.

Firstly I want us to understand that gambling online or offline can be rewarding at time because in one way or the other the player get to win and get paid which brings so sorry of gratification, this can lead to a persistent Indulgence in oder to get that feal of that gratification hence it becomes almost impossible to stop gambling especially online which is such that can be kept secret and only but a few people can know you do such.

Honestly it will be really difficult to quit online gambling but rather it will be best to say you can keep off or probably avoid it for a period of time until you gain control of your habit again then you can resume if you want to but this time with control measures so you don't get burnt trying to make more money especially online as you can always gain access remotely anytime.

Talking about measures you can possibly avoid casino sites over the period of time you have chosen to, you can aswell choose to be restricted as most online casino have options of restrictions for you if you feel you are becoming addicted, if you have them bookmarked or their app installed you may uninstall them or remove them from you bookmark for the period of time you may want to abstain.

Or just make yourself busy so that you won't think of playing online. Sometimes I just phone my phone on the other room, not beside me so that I won't think of depositing and playing. Although I have my laptop to play, I prefer my games though using my phone.

No sure why is this so, but I guess because I can even play when I was lying down in my bed and obviously I can't do that with my laptop. So just to minimized my online gambling, I put my phone away from me. I don't bother someone calling me and not answering it. I can just check it back someone from the other room like my kids calling me if they see that my phone is ringing.

It's a good thing that this works for you and I'm really happy it does. But it will really depends on the severity of gambling dependency and addiction a person have. If a person is still on the initial stage or on the developing stage of addiction, this can possibly work since the urge to play and bet isn't that strong compared when you are already dependent on it because of cycled routine. It will be much challenging to be a busy person and to place your device to another room or give it to another person to keep it for you, without you having the sense of wanting to get it back ASAP. The most effective one should be professional intervention and medical treatment if the gambling addiction is developed and is on the later stage.

Want to get rid of gambling as demand is at a point where it is difficult to refrain from. In addition to these the way to prevent gambling addiction will depend on the person's own wishes. If there is any other emotional stress problem or big event beyond the gambling, it should also be well analyzed. Whenever you want to gambling online, you will work away from the phone. You can go somewhere for a few days or go to relatives' house the last thing is to stay away from the phone so that the gambling will return to normal.

If you want to stop gambling addiction, the first step you must take is to tell the people closest to you, such as your family or wife, about your situation. They will give you control to avoid gambling, whether online gambling or land casinos. If that's not enough, then limit yourself from accessing deposits on gambling sites, maybe you need to delete mobile banking and empty all crypto assets so that when the urge to gamble arises you don't have access to deposits on gambling sites. It does take hard work and determination to stop gambling addiction, but it is not impossible, it is better to stop before you lose everything

First thing is how you can find ways to avoid playing, if you can empty your bankroll and all the possible means where you can get money to use for gambling, I agree that it's a hard task but with your willingness to stop and you are open to any help that your love ones or your close friends can provide, it's a good start to move forward and help yourself to accept that mistake and be positive in solving the issue.
