I have never seen any place, real life or online, embrace gambling as much as this forum has. A little bit of gambling is okay but when you do it with the hope of making money it becomes a problem. The house ALWAYS wins. I see so many people here throw their money away at these online casinos.

I just banned myself from the casino IRL yesterday after losing $40 at Blackjack. I got 18, and the dealer got 20. See? It doesn't matter how good you are at the game, the odds are always stacked against you.

If this forum were embracing drug addiction, don't you think it wouldn't look as good?

To me that is not a problem and we can actually gamble to make money. I have some guys in my country and the have been living on football betting and they are living will so I don't see anything wrong with it. However becoming addicted to gambling is what I think is bad as you will always live a frustrated life.

It's because this is a crypto forum. Did you know that the first recipient or the first industry that take advantage of blockchain is the gambling industry? So don't be surprise if you find lots of gamblers around this community.

I don't think this forum intentions in the first place was to embrace gambling addiction here. I bet you can find other gambling forums much worst than this community.

You might see it this way because with cryptocurrencies as this forum caters to its users makes it easier to gamble with then lets say going to a casino in real life to gamble.
You need transportation to get there then pay for parking then eventually pay for something to eat outside your home.
These expenses do build up and most would want to use these funds to bet with instead of paying for these things.
Just my point of view of your reaction to the section of forum whose focusing towards the members who gamble here is all.

Addiction, generally is bad thing. But people get addicted for something like gambling i think it is not a big problem since they can control their finance. Because addicted wouldn't make us crazy and do bad thing to make our pleasure.

Because there are so many active discussion in this board then you say that there are many gambling addicts in this forum? If you mean so, you are absolutely wrong. There is no exact number of how many forum members are real gamblers, how many members like to talk about it only, and we do not know how many addicted members.

I do not know what kind of parallels you make. This forum is full of users of different kinds and its normally that gamblers are share their loosing and winnings here, that's why there is a whole board for that! I do not know what is your problem, in the case if you are so disappointed in gambling and the forum - nobody holds you, leave.

This will always be the fact that more and more losing stories will be anytime more than winning stories as people lose more than winning . So people should be aware that those who just play to win will not be able to always win and end up on losing note most likely .

Well this is the bitcoin forum that we are talking about and all sorts of people from different countries are active here. What do you expect? A little bit of gambling is what you consider having self-discipline and it may help the individual avoid losing tons of money. The house will always win depending IF you do not have any self-discipline and control over your addiction.

Wait, you said that a little bit of gambling is okay but you get yourself banned from a casino from losing your mind over. I really find it ironic as you contradict your statements.

The forum never embraced gambling and it never convinced people to do gambling as well. This forum is an avenue for business people to set-up their gambling business and it never convinced anyone to play as everything is subject to our free will and discretion.
Both gambling and drug usage stem from the same problem- which is ADDICTION. Search other posts and there are a ton of support posts and messages on how to overcome addiction.

Lol you lost a bet and now you remember gambling isn't a good thing. There are millions of people here and out of that millions i doubt the percentage of regular gamblers are upto 0.5%. I think you are in the midst of gamblers that's why it looks like everyone is a gambler .

By the way, i read somewhere that decentralized gambling platform pay gamblers. Maybe this would be a new and productive way to gamble in the future.

How could drug addiction be connected to this forum? Of course, gambling is vastly used in this forum because of free advertisement on their sites and this is one of the places where online gamblers learned how to gamble.

It is not that here are a lot of addicted gamblers rather it is that because bitcoin facilitates so much gambling and KYC/AML is not a problem in many online crypto casinos is the reason why you will see this high number of gamblers. Gambling addiction exists anywhere in the world but here is the only place the persons are anonymous and can share their ideas freely.

Addiction doesn't come from this forum.

Compare from outside of this forum the people who being an addicted from gambling are much more from people inside to this forum and i think if people gamble and they were complaining lost or regretting their decission while gamble still cannot be indicated as addiction and i think not all people here can be called addicted from gambling because i'm sure there are plenty of people who still gamble but they still can control theirself properly

yes, we must distinguish between gambling and drug addicts. if some gambling addicts lose a lot of money, they are less exposed to the risk of mental damage. but drug addicts are more at risk of developing mental illness because the price is expensive and he must always use it.

If we know that certain gambler, we can but that is hard unless you can always see him gambling.

Gambling addiction or Drug addiction, they have the same negative results and that is the disease or the disorder of the individual's brain. It is said to be a disorder of the brain, I am not a doctor but I can agree with that. We should not compare these two whether what is worst or what is better instead we should raise the awareness of it to help the people with those disorders.

People here are playing gambling or not, it depends on them, and I am sure that when they were playing gambling, they know about the consequences of losing the money. We learn about gambling games by sharing what we know. Many of us are regular gamblers, but the others don't play gambling too often. But I am sure that there are people who can quit his/her addicting to gambling because of this forum.

And if there is a person who was still addicting in gambling, maybe he can learn from here so he can get a lesson on how to quit from gambling. I am sure that if he can learn from other people about solving the gambling addiction, he can get positive things from this forum because this forum is not talking about gambling games. Sometimes, we share many things which useful for our life.

Drug addiction?
No, just gambling. And no one tells anybody to go be addicted with gambling. We are just promoting it. It is for fun and not for something to make as a living.
Me, I play everyday before but controlled myself afterwards and just playing every week.
Whenever I lose all the funds that I have which is just an excess from my budget and my savings, I will stop and then just look for the other week to maybe get it back somehow using another set of money which is just another excess.

Somehow, that way I am having fun.

Gambling can really be never consider nor compared with drug addiction.Yes, it can give out possibilities of addiction but wont really be that similar to drugs which would really destroy
not only your emotions,self awareness, decision making and most of all you are destroying your own body unlike on gambling where this is an entertainment thing and the only
problem is that most people get addicted to it already coming to a point where they dont know how to handle their funds and losing it all but still keeps on playing.

It still boils down to self-control. And I don't think that we can call this forum embracing drug addiction. Yes, there are a lot of gamblers here but I don't think the majority is being addicted, some just wanted to enjoy and have some fun playing their favorite games here. And I'm sure everyone also knows the odds are against us, but they wanted to take the risk like you. So if you don't like to lose then quit gambling for good.

Well, you can't blame the forum for having this kind of people because firstly, this forum is made for everyone. It's not just for promoting the projects but also to share your knowledge, experiences and more. The forum is not a problem here but those people who misemploy the gambling in the wrong way. As a matter of fact, gambling is not supposed to be used to earn profit but rather it should be used as entertainment. Probably I know you were all aware that you could only win in online casinos with having a low percentage of winning hence, using it as a source of income would be a terrible idea. Besides, you could not classify the people in this forum an addict for just the reason of they're using online casino upon their signature. Therefore, not just because there's a lot of online casinos that were promoted in this forum it doesn't mean that they are all gambling addicts. Gambling can be happy sometimes but remember don't abuse it. By the way, why don't you check this site.

It would be hard to get rid of this bad habit right? Then, what could be the best solution to prevent the player out of the addiction? Some other says you can rid out this habit by just distracting yourself into other habit like sport or other form of entertainment activities that does not involve money.

Vaguely yes, it will be difficult to get rid of this bad habit but you don't need to leave gambling just to entertain yourself if it really makes you amuse. All you need to do is just lessen the amount of money you will use in gambling, use the amount that you can afford to lose. Avoid the things will make you devastated.
