Why does being a gambler would matter? For me, that's fine, as long as you are not addicted to it. I bet there are government officials that are so gambling, so it won't matter. But if the campaign would start, it's advisable not to gamble for a while, and focus on the upcoming campaign. There's nothing bad about gambling, as long as you can control and limit yourself.
It might affect your image if everyone knows you're a gambler. Others might think that you will use their money to gamble (we can't erase that thinking from others). But if you were able to give them a good image and reputation from helping people, then they won't doubt you about being a gambler. And you don't have to think of how to defend yourself if you know in yourself that you are a responsible gambler.

If you are gambler it doesn't mesn that you are bad person as long as you did not harm the others don't stop playing as long as you not aaddict player. If you are candidates just be proud to yourself because you are nominating to this kind of activities at your place .
Don't be afraid to know the other people that you are gambler but Im not blaming you because people right now are judgemental.

Sometimes, there was a doubt in ourselves to tell other people that we are a gambler because not all people in our neighbourhood can accept someone who is a gambler. They will choose not to show themselves in the social community and prefer to stay at homes than to communicate with other people. But we can choose not to tell them who we are and what we did so we can talk to them easily.
But I agree that we don't have to worry with that, as long as we can be a good person, we can accept what other people say, it will not be a problem. It is easy to judge people because of their habit or their work but they don't know what our reason to do that.
Gambling is not controlling you until you let it control you as some people become gambling-addicted to then they get no way to escape when once they get trapped in gambling. We should keep control ourselves abs not to spend more than we can afford for gambling. Debt chase your losses just win and come home it's a better way, according to me gambling is not bad if you are not addicted.
that is why important thing for the Beginners is whom they encouraged them because this is their basis on how to treat gambling.
I think heres where the anonymous crypto gambling wins everyone. No gambler would stop for what other people think. If they have to pretend that they are not gambling, they would secretly indulge in crypto gambling sites online of which no one would ever know.
I'm not saying gambling is a good thing you should never leave, but if you can handle gambling, you don't need to listen to what others say.

People do actually have different perspective regarding this on treating a person who gambles especially if they run for a political position. Well, in the eyes of majority, being a gambler as a person is hard to accept as a positive characteristic of a politician. For example, if we hear someone who is about to run for politics in our area and they they play gambling, our initial expression is quite doubtful for him. Because we know, in gambling, there's no assurance of winning, how could we have a politician that will secure the funds of the community and will do the best for it? Well, it is quite hard to think he will not use it for gambling right?

Actually being a gambler will not make your reputation low because gambling is not bad at all, yes gambling can destroy your life if you get addicted on it, so if you have a good mindset you won't be addicted on gambling, just control yourself while playing and consider this as for you fun only.
depends in your community because we have different people around us and breeding,if your community is aware about gambling ever since?so there are no problem at all but if not?then our reputation is always at stake remember that.Gambling will only be bad if you let it controls you and that is when gambling can be called as bad on your life and will make your reputation lower.
but that is the problem mate,people don't know that they are being controlled by gambling and not the gambling that they are controlling.

OP, you should learn from Donald Trump. Everyone knows he talks nonsense, giving false and unrealistic promises, etc. and yet, he got elected.
My point is, politics is never about the truth, but about "public perception." What makes you a gambler? You or other people's opinions? You can keep doing what you do in secret, and keep telling the public that you are "the most honest man ever existed."
I just want to bring this "solution" once more...My point is, politics is never about the truth, but about "public perception." What makes you a gambler? You or other people's opinions?

This world is full of politics and fakery, so gamblers better play smart in this game.
Agree with @GDragon, your reputation is at stake if you are a problem gambler so you can't control yourself and function in the community properly. You won't even know what your neighbor was doing last weekend right?
Honestly if I am too involved enough to actually put my reputation at stake, that already means I have done too much, I should definitely stop waaaaaay before my reputation getting to be at the stakes. But if we are talking about someone who got to a place where they have to put their reputation at stake to continue gambling, they totally would, they came all that way already being a gambler anyway, so they wouldn't stop there.
If we are talking about a situation where it is not really a "gambling" but something more real life and you have to put your reputation at risk and do something that may or may not happen, that is different, it depends on what I am gambling on and what I will get in return, if the return is good and the chances are good, I may do it.

I would really consider my options before I do something that big. If my reputation is at the line, there must be some huge reward in return for something like that to happen, otherwise who would really put their whole reputation in the line for just couple bucks, I personally wouldn't. For example on bitcointalk and on telegram I do have some people that knows me and we talk and basically I have some sort of reputation, for me to destroy this name and basically ruin all of that, I would require really a HUGE sum of money or something equal to that to be on the line, otherwise there is really no point of gambling for it.
your talking about other things and not literally gambling ? but its also termed as a gambling when you gamble your reputation for anything else that you think risky enough but your right , why risk your reputation to something that isnt worth it ? if your going to risk it anyway then go to something that you can get benefit the most but we sounded like a greedy person and bad person on here . i see many campaign managers here that is reputable but continue to scam the funds that they hold . i think that isnt still right because karma will follow you .

I would stop gambling because that will hurt my reputation, if I am playing right at the situation. But the problem here is that your campaign competitors will try to use that to their advantage, and if they are to discover that then that will surely damage your reputation so in the end your reputation will not be mended even if I stop gambling.
True that they will not stop campaigning. But you can always play at your own private place and not let anybody know. Thats why cryptocurrency is there and there are online casinos to cater to the type of games that players wish to gamble on. It is indeed going to make your skin crawl if they shame you in public and believe me it is not something that anybody wants. So in that case you should just stop playing for some time and keep in mind that smear campaigns will run out with time because carry no proof and are just fake accusations.If they do have a proof of your gambling habits then you are in trouble. But such extortionists are rare.
Yes, you can gamble at your own place without others knowing is really an option. Online casinos, crypto, etc. You can save your reputation. However, you should make sure you are in control, because if you're not--- I assure you they will know. If you're a compulsive gambler, it will always be seen, the uncontrollable urge to gamble even though it takes a toll in your life. You will do things that somehow have negative effects to other people.
So safe answer is to stop if you can. And the fact that you are having second thoughts in stopping is really a bad thing. Occasional gambling often develops to compulsive gambling.
When you are into gambling you are already into the negative list of people in your society. As per the society you are a non performing and productive individual. So, why bother about your reputation?
You will remain bad influencer and therefore there is not need to think what they feel about you. I beleive in one thing I play using my own money and not theirs so who are they to lecture me?
Leave them all and enjoy your life as it goes.

Rather, the whole society will really condemn you for your addiction to gambling, but if your environment is smart enough it will look at your actions, first of all.
If your environment is stupid enough, it doesn’t matter what you do, gambling or something else, your environment will all be right for you, depending on their own beliefs and prejudices.
It depends. I got your point but you missed out that we are talking about reputation here, if that's your mindset, I think you're a irresponsible leader or whatsoever if you're going to insist that gambling is not bad as long as you're doing more good deeds to your people. Because think, if you're playing gambling, the time that you could put to become a good leader will be given to gambling, and that's a minus point already for being a good role model for your people.
Besides, the money of your people is at stake when you're addicted to gambling, you might abuse your power and forget your job and reputation just because of your urge in playing gambling every single day.

If people who respects you seen that you are heavily engaged without proper control with this activities , your reputations will surely be damage.Gambling will only be bad if you let it controls you and that is when gambling can be called as bad on your life and will make your reputation lower.
but if you have good and manageable control with yourself and you are just doing this to have some fun and fill your social life it's not going to harm
you and it will be understandable with every people around you.

Many people have good thoughts before they start and you should look at their results, they still can't resist their greed, similar situations have been printed a lot in magazines, almost everyone in society knows that someone goes to gambling, no one comes back with good results, so our reputation will get worse with gambling regardless of how we play it. But even when reputations are threatened, many people will not be too concerned and give up gambling, the effect of gambling is to help others ignore the real world and the impact of life on them Gambling will only be bad if you let it controls you and that is when gambling can be called as bad on your life and will make your reputation lower.
Maybe there were some people who will intent to stop gambling just to make their reputation good and clean and after a ehile or after they gets what they want they will just go back again on gambling and I guess a lot of people are doing this kind of trick because if you are really a gambler you will not br able to quit because you on yourself you know that you and gambling is almost on the same line or a family, but if that's the case that I will fit my shoe into then probably I will do the same as like what I have been said.

Ok you are gambling just for fun, your friends and neighbors knows that and a friend invited you to his party to be one of the candidates as a councilor and campaign will start in 6 months, now, of course, you need to have a good reputation, will you stop gambling just to have a good image this coming campaign and how will you defend yourself if accused as a gambler.
It all comes down to your country laws, is it legal or illegal to gamble in your country? If it's illegal I wouldn't do it in the first place,
but if it's legal and I do gamble with my own money why would I stop it? Second question is are you responsible gambler, you know
how much you can spend, you never borrow money for gambling or neglecting all other life aspects because of the gambling.
In my country I wouldn't stop gambling, I would continue to be myself and to do what I like to do and how I like to do.
I would stop gambling because that will hurt my reputation, if I am playing right at the situation.
