Yep, it is a very useful platform to publicly expose those that are trying to scam people, and that includes such conditions that appear out of the blue, or are in the finest possible print and are aimed to make withdrawal expensive, painful and sometime simply impossible. I even wonder why would anyone go to play online with crypto and not bother too look into the number one resource for reputation checking.

That's simply because not everyone knows about this forum. Many people are not aware that there's a forum called bitcointalk created by Satoshi himself.
Also, there are some people aware of this forum yet look for places elsewhere to find reviews about casinos.
People keep asking where they can find out which is a good casino and ask for websites which provide casino reviews and bonus offers etc...
^ But why did we see most scenarios when they were scammed they found this forum created a thread here on Bitcointalk? Sounds funny right?
The problem of most gamblers and probably those who are not aware of scams do not make any dip research but when they get scammed, that is the time they will dig research about the casino. However, we are so lucky here because we are oriented to such possible scams and we know how to determine legit casinos.

All matters on someones awareness because there are people who do really keep on researching up things until they do find out the right place to ask and consider on reading up real time reviews
and recommendations and its true that not all is totally aware of this forums existence on which they would really be mainly looking various informations of things on social media or in other
forums or other places which i couldnt say that it could really be trusted but on the time that you had been redirected into this forum then for sure you would really get information
from real experiences and dealing which you could really decide whether you should proceed on or not basing on what you have read on.

Well, many casinos promote their services on this forum for a good reason, that is directly linked to the fact bitcointalk forum holds a lot of legitimacy and influence in crypto gambling industry. If a casino goes shady you can be sure it won't be forgotten on this forum and it will be also very clear for every gambler who might start reading some threads around.

In case of doubt, you can even tell your gambler friends who aren't members of this community to always search on google the name of the casino they are looking for and bitcointalk keyword together to find out if that is a good site to play or not.
One of the best things to be done first on which you do make out some research firdt before making any step specially if you are dealing on something new.If its been connected to crypto then this place or forum is a one stop shop on where you could really see real time feedbacks,recommendations or suggestions out of those real experiences thats why you cant really go wrong into this place but be sure that you do make yourself aware with fake info yet this place does also have lots.

Yes, this forum has resolved a lot of small issues like this before, but I think this might not be one of them. A lot of these smaller casinos does a lot of customer support staff and I think they are inundated with requests that they cannot resolve very quickly.

We see this happening all the time and within a couple of days, they eventually get to your "ticket" or your request and they resolve the issue. We are impatient and we think they have a whole team of people dedicated to resolving issues, but it is not the case.  Roll Eyes

In a certain way, his last words correspond to each of us at some point as users of any casino, but we learn to cope with it, without a doubt it is so. Now, the problem in general, in the average, can be solved in 72 hours, but that the hours turn into days and the days start to feel like weeks, so if money is necessary to pay expenses of our life daily then more drama is added, so always in most of these cases patience leads us to the best solution.

Anyway, if there is an answer, not always this is best the solution in how each user waits for it, so  that part is what brings many players to the forum.
Then that should be the moment in which users with their reason or not should go through the forum...but as the title of the post says, even in those initial circumstances that I have mentioned of desperation and impatience if you pass by here, someone always guides you or is willing to help.

Signature is a promotional event for them, and of course with their honest attitude, all of us here will definitely continue to support them to develop in the industry, but if they commit fraud against their users, of course these users will easily destroy the reputation of the gambling site mentioned in this forum, I think that's why many crypto gambling sites might think again if they intend to deceive the members here, and one bad example is the 1Xbit site which is now starting to be abandoned by their users after their thread contains a lot of negative tags from forum members.

It's not the gamblers that will cause their reputation to go bad but the owner or team itself if they commit fraud but if they are serious about running their company then I doubt they won't do something so stupid that can cause their reputation to go bad. Even a $25 dollar payout didn't process could also make the site's reputation very bad where you think that it is not a huge amount but they still open a thread complaining about it. Just hope that the team will be able to response on time or not as long as it's not too late to respond.

Anyway, even if users become part of those signature campaigns (don't take it personally, I simply try to describe how it works) they influence the others. Moreover, if a beginner comes to this forum and see a Legend member or something like this, the chances that this newcomer create an account via the link from the signature are higher.
Why we wear signature on the bitcointalk forum, do you know? We wear signature campaign as a promoter of the project/site on this forum. The people might be interested for that signature but referral link not allowed so there is no chance to that newcomer will create an account

I used to work in customer service, so I perfectly understand what you mean and agree with you. However, gambling is quite a specific industry and when it comes to money and emotions, we should not be surprised that not everyone can control themselves and wait patiently.
We need to understand how hard their work because they are not just trying to solve our problem but also have to solve the other member's problems that they want to resolve fast. Sometimes, the user does not have patience, does not care about other people's problems and asks to resolve the problem quickly. This forum is here trying to help those who have a problem by figuring out the problem and asking the casinos to give explanations and this forum already helps many members solve their problems.

Articles are always sponsored but the way they are sponsored may differ. For example, some sites are affiliated with a casino, while others may simply write a review and be paid a fixed amount. Anyway, most articles are biased. However, I don't think that this is too bad. With this unbeatable long-term house edge, most casinos work transparently, meaning they don't have to cheat gamblers as they know that a gambler will lose all he has invested in gambling on the long distance.

No, of course articles are not always sponsored. Firstly, there are honest journalists for whom telling the truth is more important than earning big money. They may be in the minority, but they exist. Secondly, in some cases being honest is profitable. You are getting more visitors to your site when there's talk that your info is always legit. Thirdly, even when being paid by a company, some journalists still may write unbiased articles. The problem is that you never know what kind of reporter wrote the article you are reading. Here on this forum you can read the reaction of other members and make your own conclusions, while in other places comments can be moderated without you knowing it.

I would rather agree with milka, I have never seen an unbiased journalist regardless of the niche he or she is working at. Even if they seem to be unbiased, they have an idea that they want to apply or they are paid to push a particular idea.

People would really be that impatient whenever they do know that there's something in pending and its valuable since this do talks about money.People do really get impulsive and if the team wouldnt able

to make out some response on a particular time then they would really be making those fuss and complaints into the public but we know that the community wouldnt really be that dumb on making conclusions if we dont able to hear out the other side and this is how this forum works on where you could really see real time advices and comments on various situations.

Also, when it comes to legitimacy then im bit assured that signatures that be proven out would really be somewhat that legit since the community wont really be blind on not to notice those shady stuffs around.

We could directly able to notice if the site isnt really that trustworthy and even if they do ran off some signature campaigns but doesnt mean that they are legit but most of the time they would because forum
members could directly tell if its really something a serious site or simply a scam one basing off on what we do able to observe on the first place.

But now people are using it as their main source of information instead of consulting specialized websites for the information they are looking for, and as such it is no wonder that people that come to the market and use social media as their main source of information are scammed so frequently.

I got your point and agree with that. The SM was designed for more private purposes. However, I think that this is great for us to have them as the source or the TRUTH sometimes. If you look through those websites with expertise, you will see that they are no more unbiased as they push you to buy stuff and not to learn more about a particular item or service.

This forum is no SM, that's for sure. In many cases we have no idea about the age, gender, place of origin, etc. of the people we have been communicating for years, and, actually, we don't care much about that stuff. What we do care about is information we are getting from them. If it's true and, at the same time, unknown to the vast majority of people, this kind of information is valuable, and it is appreciated here. Liars are usually getting negative trust, especially when money involved. I believe one day this forum may become a place of much higher scope than it is today. Not only crypto gambling, but gambling in general will be discussed here on such a level that top gamblers from around the world will prefer to hang out here.
You touch an important point, when it comes to social media everything is about how many followers or friends you have, and if the amount is high then everything that person said is taken at face value.

But in this forum, especially when it comes to scam accusations, the main measurement is if you have your facts in order, this way even if a newbie makes an accusation but they have their facts straight then the community will support them against anyone, regardless of whether that person or business had being part of the community for a long time, this makes this forum invaluable and a great source of information regarding the reliability of casinos and other businesses that deal with bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Compared to social media where you are judged based on your look and what's your status in life, forums are all about input and what you've shared, you can be a street vendor but post great stuff, but they are not going to judge you your status in real life, here in Bitcointalk we are all anonymous and what matters is the information and opinion we are sharing.

There's also one very important aspect: this forum is not moderated in favor of this or that company or website. We can't be sure that this is also the case for other places where gambling platforms are reviewed. I read articles regarding gambling sites in various places, and quite often it's obvious that the article was sponsored by one or the other casino. Yes, we can read such articles on this forum too, but the differecnce is that inaccurate info will face merciless criticism here right away, and everyone can read it.

It would be great if top gamblers would write their reviews here in BTT.  

It would be great indeed, but what I mean is that they can come here for some reliable info. Maybe they are already lurking here for years without even creating an account. Pros know where to get the right info.

You are right, in fact when talking about the forum and the problems that are treated usually occur in the "Reputation" section and although here you can discuss the way in which a certain topic can be developed, I think it should go there, of course it is a general issue, in my case they have only tried to scam me a couple of times, and it always lies in the deposit as the first option, it is for this reason that in the sites it is always good that they give some type of faucet limited by user to test the games, withdrawals, among other things. The forum must be used or, to the extent invoked, so that the owners of the platforms realize that the players have high-demand criteria.
