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

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.
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. 
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
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.
Yeah this forum runs on the casinos because the two major ways to spend your bitcoins are casinos and exchanges with the first one having the bigger share, even without the numbers being quoted.
So you have a lot of casinos with their campaigns running and most of them having posting quotas in the Gambling sections and hence you see such.

Not just being popular is the reason, casino is one of the very few places where people actually use bitcoin and other cryptos for it's actual purpose. Also there was another thread which kind of similar to this discussed why only casino related products are more here and what I read most of the replies suggest that it has restrictions on many platforms so casino utilizes the bitcointalk as perfect place to advertise their products as well as build their brand value by doing various activities.

You might have gotten the answers to your question by now, but I would consider adding little to it. Well, the main reason why there's lots of gambling posts is probably because almost all the active posters are advertising a casino signature campaign. And the other reason is because there is no more mixer on the forum. But I do suggest that you check different boards, maybe you can find other discussions you be interested in.
I am quite convinced that few people even read such discussions.
I did not get this tone.
Did you mean you are convinced that only few people read these discussion, or did you mean not many people them? Whatever you meant, we both agree that people can run away by writing almost anything on gambling boards. Because not everyone read their nonsense posts. People mostly post what has happened in the match and how scored what (which everyone knows).
I ask people not to post the scorecards only, but to do discuss some unknown facts which could be interesting. If I remember correctly, JSRAW merited that post a long time ago. I only found a couple of quality poster on Gambling boards including Haunebu and JSRAW.
You can’t change that because campaign managers running gambling signature campaigns will always hire users who are active in the gambling section. That’s just how business works - you don’t promote what you don’t understand.
I don't want to change anything. All I know is, I don't have to post all my 25 posts in gambling section to get my signature payment. My campaign only requires me to write five posts out of 25 which is 20% of my weekly posts. That should be enough. But when people writing 20 posts in gambling section but the campaign requires only 5, then they are doing it because it is easy to spam there. I know there are some exceptions, there are some people who purely love gambling and write posts in those sections. But they maintain the quality of their posts.

No I am not gambler, I am crypto marketer, doing marketing for shitcoins , and remember when I checked BCT before it was about ICO, Bitcoin and marketing, now it like a total casino advertising platform.
The forum is still about Bitcoin, you just need to visit specific sections for each piece of information. "Show unread posts since last visit" shows you a mixture of posts from all the sections, so you can't judge the forum only based on that. There is no doubt that there are a lot of casinos that are promoted and are present in the forum, but factually, since all those casinos have Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as their main payment methods, they are technically related to Bitcoin, so they have a reason to be in this forum.
On a different note, I would rather gamble my money away than invest them in a shit coin or an ICO.
Or, we could say that investing in these two is nothing less than gambling in itself. Anyway, I believe the forum is better with casinos and gambling than it was with ICOs and shitcoins back in the day that used to scam people most of the time.Maybe you are right

Yeah, most of the signatures here are from casinos, so if you check out the gambling sections, you'll see plenty of them since that’s where most of the posts are. Are you a gambler or not? Because if you are, this gives you a ton of options to choose from, and it should definitely help you out.Go to your Profile Settings, look for "Modify Look and Layout Preferences", check "Don't show users' signatures." and click "change profile".

That’s a given since 90% or more of the signatures in the forum are from signature campaigns. There isn’t a specific board for them, but users like me are super active because of the weekly posting requirements. Just get used to it; if you’re not into gambling, just ignore them and focus on the content. Most of it actually provides valuable insights on various topics.But the reality is, most campaign participants end up writing 70% of their posts on gambling boards.

In some campaigns, the number can be up to 90%. People find gambling board less moderated and they can run away by writing anything and those posts rarely get reported. I see a lot of nonsense posts that was written just because of the signature requirement.
I think it’s still moderated, though, since I see a lot of topics getting locked and probably some deleted. It’s just that there’s such a high volume of posts in this board, especially in the gambling discussions. Honestly, how do you even moderate a thread for a specific league? Users are just sharing their thoughts based on the actual games, so it feels more like a chit-chat thread. In my opinion, that’s totally normal.

OK, I forgot to add in the previous post.Writing in gambling is much simpler and you can write any nonsense there and it won't have any impact.
There, several pages are written about one match, only to switch to another the next day. All previous discussion automatically becomes completely useless. I am quite convinced that few people even read such discussions.
