Ah please, faucet is ment to keep site alive, attract people.

Wouldn't really make any sense. Casinos have to make money, 1% would eliminate their house edge and primedice couldn't profit anymore.

Maybe if you take away the faucet, have (small) weekly rebates to depositing players that have sustained losses during the week. It would have to be very small, like 1%, or I know that could get out of hand with some of the whales. But that would reward depositing players, and maybe you could handle the percentages of rebates by level.

Arguments against the rest?

That wasn't rly fair deal. Coz we (mods) get to chose who gets on that list. Its not fair , it can be subjective ...

That just completely defeat the purpose of having a faucet. Faucet allows new players to experience the site and test features without risking their actual BTC. Most of them just test it out before depositing BTC.

Or just don't allow a faucet at all, until you have wagered a certain amount. Like 10btc or something.

why not just lower back to 100 sat reg and 1000 whitelist. that seemed to work during the pd2 days

By faucet leechers I am referring to those who are only here for the faucet rather than to gamble and spam support emails when they can't cash out dust.

Because those leechers you are referring to consists of 70%+ of the community. Question, am I a faucet leecher when I have deposited 0.2+ BTC but uses faucet a lot? Also player X faucet faucet faucet 100 times, gets sick of it and deposits 0.01 or more (for example).

Why should they increase the amount of support staff they have so that people can leech faucet?

I usually chat and play on PD just because of the faucet. It isn't much but still is fun.

Why does the url redirect to a ref link? That's just weird

Thank you for the opportunity to comment.

The key issue is what are the tradeoffs of the faucet?  I'm glad the direct costs have come down.  I like the PD faucet but use it a lot less, a lot lot less, than I used to before.  However, I am also on PD a lot less.  The faucet gives the site, especially its chat, the appearance of activity.  Is this worth something?  I think yes, it's sort of like seeing cars in a parking lot, clearly something is going on at the site, however, is it worth the costs, that is something only you can answer.

Maybe a solution is to make clear that "Faucet use is at your own risk.  PD will no more tolerate complaints about us trying to give you free money or bets made with our free money than we will begging in chat."  That would allow you to delete all the support posts about faucet issues, which I agree, are ridiculous.

Just-Dice did great without a faucet but it had investment and so there was a reason for people to check in to the site to see how their investments were doing.  So I don't think the JD experience is a good analogy here.

Good Luck!

iam not agree...u must remember without faucet primedice never exist in all player heart....better u keep your demolition on your water and drink it.

Remove levels instead and make wagered level up way more than it does in todays situation. I take much of the support is on the chat? Can't see many other reasons for needing support for faucet than spontantious newb questions on the chat. Or hier more support (I'd be up for the task) with less pay (maybe paid per 100's of mails answered), filter your support email to another email with words containing faucet and let that support department deal with questions like that - the rest of the mails which isn't forwarded by the filter simply the support forwards.. A tier 1 support if you may, ordinary support would turn into tier 2.
Pay them less than you pay ordinary support, many of the replies to those mails are ctrl+V replies anyway. If support@pd recives so many mails regarding the faucet the IQ level of many of those people mailing aren't that high (no offense intended) and people like me (10+ years exp of internet) know very easily how to deal with such.

If you remove the faucet you remove 70% of your community, people will head elsewhere - that's what I will do at least, I've "worked" hard to reach the level I am at to recive payment, and I know many of the people there doesn't play with deposit money all the time. And many people try and try and try with faucet, end up depositing after it not working out the way they hoped.

iam agree lol....as long the faucet is have...all people can use it for training....hope Admin will increase the faucet soon...we really need it when we geting lose...facet for play....bitcoin for enjoy and game for fun...and thats for my smile to all of u...

Amanku just falling in love with primedice

dont remove faucet, you will lose much players, thus more profit

there were X times when i played with faucet, lost...get angry and then deposited my real cash then of lost it again... belive it or not im not alone on this one

JD was very successful in terms of number of bets and amount wagered due to the easy user interface and low unexpected downtimes. If the faucet was removed, it would probably not make a difference if they use the money to improve the site and perhaps improve the server uptime and overall stability. This would attract those who truly want to gamble instead of freeloaders.
