I check " Show unread posts since last visit." and 80% there is advertising some gambling or bets services , does it so popular here ?

My first observation which i want to bring to your notice is that the forum is not being abbreviated by BCT, i think most users do make use of BTT instead.

Secondly, here are some few reasons i think makes it look the way you have seen the forum to be having high posts from gambling sections.

1. The gambling platforms have the most signature campaigns on the forum and they ensure that at least their participants make posts on the section on a weekly base.

2. Also, considering the way gambling is being accepted and well played by people, making an advertisement for a platform on such section will help get the required attention needed for them to be recognized.

3. There are sections like the wall observer as well where daily posts being made there are worth a number of pages and could be the second after the gambling posts.

The reason is because gambling sites are the sites that are advertising the most on this forum. 99% of the campaigns we have on this forum are gambling sites signature campaigns.

Yeah....if you just take a quick glance at the first two pages of any given thread in the gambling section and notice that the vast majority of members are getting paid to post by some gambling-related service, it should be damn obvious why there are not only so many posts but so many threads with zillions of pages (filled with a ton of crap, zero-value garbage).

That said, I figured out years ago that there are a lot of people here who are genuinely into gambling and can actually write about it in such a way that it's clear that they're not a non-gambler enrolled in a gambling campaign, i.e., even if their posts are poorly written they know what they're writing about--unlike in some other sections, where shitposters will leave you scratching your head and then smashing your keyboard over your monitor.

You can also tell how popular gambling actually is by how many threads dealing with gambling addiction there have been. I'm not going to search for examples, but I've seen quite a few in my time and I'd betcha that this forum has in its membership a large number of people who take it too far. Anyway OP, you've already gotten your answer 20x over, so could you lock this thread?

Exactly what I was trying to point out in my previous post. OP has their own set of hate towards casino campaigns and its participants. They dont seem to be getting much on their shill services and hence a thread like this.

If their objective is to spew hate on the forum, they should take some time out to cool down or find another forum for their shilling projects.

Or better yet, they should just start their own casino. Grin

Not sure, but as far as i know there are many gambling related signature campaigns on this forum, and since posting about gambling is a must for some, we find a lot of gambling posts. That's roughly the main reason, maybe other users have more complex answers, anyone?

I think he is pertaining to the volume of poster wearing a gambling signature code instead of gambling post since Bitcoin discussion topic still dominates the forum in terms of posts volume compared to gambling discussion post related.

Although we can’t blame him since gambling signature campaign dominates the forum since banning of mixer campaigns here. Crypto exchange rarely advertised here nowadays since they use social to promote.

Bitcointalk.org isusa based and subject to usa laws.

So mixers were attacked by the USA government.

Thus Bitcointalk.org dropped all mixer signatures

This leaves casinos as the number one advertising force.

And most of the people who answered that is casino lobbyists, promoters, shillers.

Why full of hate on it. Some users uses casino gambling site to gain profits and enjoy themselves. If what you think is all signature wearing casino sites are shillers and promoters maybe you are right cause there is a thing called sig campaign which basically a promotions. But guess what its not illegal at all. Plus it increases the users on those said casino sites.

If doing that has been prohibited definitely youll not see anything. So why so hate it?

Because the forum and its administration/members were likely to be gradually corrupted by the wealth of crypto casino's many, many years ago. No different to how casinos influences most of the rest of the world. Just like in the real world, casinos are ultimately a negative force, though money has enabled them to corrupt people and rules in order for them to be accepted, embraced and doing what they do best, luring greedy victims (people) into wagering their money on statistically rigged casino games. The bitcointalk and casino story, I am sure, would not deviate much from the latter.

It's a shame that Bitcoin or Bitcointalk didn't additionally address this issue. I wonder how this massive world sin will be conquered, considering it would be up there with Banking and Pornography in terms of biggest things that shouldn't have been allowed to invade and flaw humanity/society.

okay? Is there anything wrong with promoting a casino in any case?.. There are no sort of censorships against the casinos and Theymos isn't worried about keeping them, so what's actually the point of this thread?
I mean, it gotta be fun sometimes as we have a good level of traffic in here... I'm wondering what it'd look like in here if all we did was talk about Bitcoin all the time.... Wouldn't it be a little bit bizarre and boring for people from all these years already?? I mean, Theymos wouldn't even extend the censorship on mix*rs if the governs never stood firm against them at first.

You wanna join one campaign someday? Put in some work and get your account to your desired rank and apply for a signature... Everyone is free to do so, instead of feeling like over 4500 people in here are doing something wrong and you're right...
Ps; advertising anything in here isn't free either...(though we have some free campaigns)

For me, the reason is because bitcointalk is home of high rollers. This recent casinos who advertise or running signature campaigns here is trying their luck to got some high roller to play on their platform. They know this forum is where serious players gather, so it's the best place to attract people who like to bet big.

These posts would probably decrease if bitcointalk also bans the signature campaigns of online casinos, similar to what happened with the signature campaigns for bitcoin mixers.

Yeah... Like Sportsbet, BC.game and Rollbit do sponsorships with some competition pools on this forum those who join are serious gamblers... They also run signature campaigns means the casino knows that bitcointalk more users who like gambling so their target to advertise on the forum is longer because a lot of audience from here.

The thread gave you a very clear answer that you were looking for. Gambling posters immediately filled the thread with posts, mainly repeating what was already said, and fully presented the way of discussion and the gambling part of the forum.

That is true, I agree that everyone ended up being one of the greatest things we can consider with crypto becoming so big all thanks to gambling for a while too.

I mean think about it, when we first started, just-dice and primedice was the early ones and so many people gambled there, everyday tens of thousands of bitcoins were wagered in those, and others who saw this, started casinos, and when they did marketing, more people realized they can gamble with crypto without trying to do anything illegal in their nation, hide their actives. So in reality, crypto has used casinos as a way to grow and we are thankful for them to provide the marketing for us, bitcoin grew a bit thanks to them when you think about how we got here.

That's pretty much the cause, besides speculations. Until now, it's still a challenge to find online shops willing to accept BTC payments

Yeah, it is actually because of signature campaign. Most of the signatures that forum's member get are from Gambling and casino campaign and that is the main reason I think. But when you will join signature campaign, you can ignore gambling as well as casino's signature campaign.

BTC, a coin of today and tomorrow.

Quote from: EFS on October 30, 2024, 11:45:07 AM

Because the forum has a large gambling section, even as big as some sports forums. There is sports betting every day and betting with Bitcoin has become very popular all over the world. The companies that advertise here mostly ask for posts to be written in the Gambling section. It has been the most active section of the forum. If advertisers wanted to talk about Politics & Society and paid for it, it would get the most posts. If you remove signature campaigns, 90% of the activity on the forum would disappear.

True statements:

Gambling and casino is a very good use case of bitcoin.
Only gambling campaign dominate the forum
Remove signatures and activity of the forum will reduce drastically.
It is fine to say that the gambling section appears to be the life wire of this forum.

I sincerely don’t get what you’re trying to pass, forum users advertising gambling service is not even a big deal besides there’s no such law against gambling service. Definitely casino service is so popular to a certain extend but the point and focus should be bitcoin. It’s so easy ignoring any board for example the gambling board if you’re not interested, I guess you’re familiar with the forum regardless the gambling board always gain massive post count.

But that a no-brainer for users who have been on this forum for six years now only that the OP woke up recently Roll Eyes

Obviously he is not updated on what happened or what's happening here for the past six years. If he logs in at least twice a month, he will not be surprised on the changes.
There are so many gambling posts because the casinos are using the forum to advertise their platform and what's wrong with that since these casinos are also promoting the use of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency?
Get used to it and besides, we still have many sections that are about Cryptocurrency products and services.
