Boycotting is useless. And how do you want to achieve that technically? If you are going to block everyone in Russia, then people will just use a VPN connection from another country and they will still have access to another gambling site. You gain nothing with that. You'd better think about how things are going to get organized again when the war is over. That will probably be in a few months. I also haven't read anywhere that gambling sites have banned Russian players.
What is one thing of VPN if somebody is being restricted from accessing a particular website or a particular platform from a particular country there is every tendency and every opportunity that they will access the site through VPN where ever they are so disrupting people who is from Russian not access the site or connect with a particular website is not sure because there is a VPN they will apply and also make use of that particular site by inputting another countries name in data through VPN

What has Russia achieved,absolutely nothing beside total destruction of its economy so far.The sanctions are already working,Russia is becoming weaker each day so the boycott is functioning perfectly.
That is a very long thread and still open.
I believe if the whole EU ban and USA sanctions have not been able to affect Russian decision then surely they are not bothered with people decision over the banning there sites. I think if the sites are offering some promotions and bonuses one should grab the opportunity.

If a player leaves the game site then I think it's up to the player.  The gambling website that gives the bonus to the players from the game.  I think it is entirely up to the players whether they will take them.  There are some players who use these bonuses and some players who do not use these bonuses.
Bonuses can’t withdraw easily, some site requires a minimum wage in order for you to get that bonuses or else you’ll be tagged as a cheater especially with the bonuses. With regards to this boycott, It doesn't seem an effective way to stop Russia, look even bigger countries didn’t even bother to push Russia to stop the war right now because they can’t and many are suffering for the consequences of this. I don’t think gambling is enough to stop Russia, this is all their plan.
No casino or platforms wouldnt set out specific rules when it comes to bonuses thats why i dont really see much interest on bonuses and promotions considering that wagering requirement is something

that is close to impossible thats why i dont really bother myself on joining up since we know that hitting up the threshold is something that you cant do and ending up always on getting wrekt.

Talking about boycotts then its been a while, we've seen Russia had withstood all of the sanctions and cut-off ties with other countries but still turns out that they dont really care
nor getting affected at all thats why its useless when you do really make acts against on what Russia is been doing as of this moment.

Its personal choice whether you would be supporting or not but somewhat it doesnt really matter at all considering that government of Russian doesnt heavily rely with gambling business revenue and as said that the ones who would be commonly affect by this is to those who owned those businesses and not the government thats why its a little bit useless if they would really be having those boycott decisions.
For some part then its up to you if you do go along with the idea but even lets say 100% would be giving out support but wont really be completely a big deal
and stopping this war.
Without a doubt it is not a very effective move, after all if the sanctions the European Union have imposed on Russia have not been able to stop Putin from invading Ukraine the chances that a few gamblers avoiding Russian casinos will do so are zero.

But at the same time it is a decision that each one of us has to make, if people do not feel comfortable gambling at a Russian casino then they are free to look for other casinos and obtain their desired entertainment that way.

well at least this question is Boycotting and not banning mate , meaning this is a question per individual and not for anything , we are being questioned if we will be wanting to take part and not to play in any russian based gambling site so either if you wanted or not? it doesnt stand in general answer.
because it is our decision to make and our ways to take part.
Gambling sites do not provide any revenue income. If the Russians gambler gambling here there is no problem. I don't think gambling will have any effect on the war. But I have doubts about how these restrictions will be enforced when the war will be overcome. At that moment all the restriction will be removed or will continue? Since Russia is a country with huge natural resources, if restrictions are placed there, the world will never be normal.

A boycott for me means fewer jobs for people who are innocent, but it must be remembered that they are at war and as they say out there in war and in love all is fair, those who have a lot of responsibility are the rulers, because I see them very Calm down while the innocent are massacred and that is not convenient for anyone, the children they have killed are increasing, and they are killing the future, this already seems biblical and apocalyptic to me, and the theme of Boincot is too small to what is missing and does generate.

I wish EU has not made that decision. They should have thought about themselves and about the rest of the world - I am sure they are now repenting for not being able to understand what decision they should have made to save Ukraine and the rest of the world.

Boycotting any site is a personal choice of any player. So if any website gives bonus, offer then it depends on the player to take it or not. It is true that many sanctions have been imposed on Russia, but European countries are buying energy from Russia. As a result, Russia has no shortage of money. War will not stop when money power of a country cannot be cut. So boycotting Russian gambling websites may do little financial damage to Russia, but their other financial sectors are much bigger.
Yes, then what conclusion could be drawn, there are members who support the boycott, others do not, others stay there watching how everything develops because they do not want to give their opinion so as not to enter into controversy because it is a very sensitive issue and one that has to be dealt with very subtly and even in a very surgical way, sometimes I think that we do not handle even 30% of what is really happening, I am one of those who do not believe 100% of the information provided by the news, I am one of those who see the Ukrainians asking for help, asking for mercy for their relatives and this really is something that breaks the heart, on the other hand Russia is a country totally controlled by Putin and it is very difficult for them to reveal themselves to him, because whoever reveals himself could easily be sentenced to death, then all this turns out to be very complicated.

You are right those who want to access the gambling they know how to do it. There are fast VPNs and there are proxy servers. Also the whole EU turned against Russia. And they are all in trouble now – Biden ran to Saudia for Oil and gas supply. And it will bring in another wave of inflation.

Definitely not OP. Politics should not affect gambling no matter what, same with sports.

Yes, I agree. Politics should not influence sports competitions. But, it's a bit too late for that, don't you think? Wherever there is money involved, there is politics.

Politics is already into sports and competition that is why there is sanctions on Russia sport players not allowing them to participate in the international sports and activities that will be profitable to the Russian federation. We don't need to bring the world politics into sport but what we are seeing now is the reverse of everything we are talking about. Let the politicians carry there political agenda on there head and nit bring it here.
I mentioned it already at some many forums that that these bans and sanctions are not going to help anyway.
and now you can see Biden rushing to the Saudi Arabia for the oil and gas help.
Russia is standing tall and all the EU countries are in trouble because of the sanctions they have made on Russia

How would the boycott help with the war? Huh

It would not help much if only Russian gambling platforms are boycotted.What will help it will be the complete full isolation from the civilized world of the Russian country.The fact that Putin agreed to meet with the Iranian government officials it shows how much isolated Putin is.If the world can continue like this to exclude Russia from almost everything and also intensifying this while doing so soon the Russian people will see how backward they have become and how limited in resources they will be,I mean technical resources and not natural ones and will mostly ask for the fall of the Putin regime.There is no other solution for the true carriers of such isolation which is the Russian population.

If we boycott all services that originate from Russia, including gambling platforms and other services spread on the Internet, this will certainly have an impact on the Russian economy as a whole and thus on the course of the war at a further level. But is this step really correct? First, because as it is known, these platforms are run by citizens who may not necessarily support the war or have a position on it at all, and all their fault is that they were born to find themselves citizens of a colonial country called Russia. Secondly, this step may negatively affect us users, especially if we boycott platforms that have proven their reliability over the years of their service, so we will be subject to fraud from other parties during the change process. As for the platforms mentioned in the first post, if they are fraudulent, it is better to boycott them, whether they belong to Russia or Ukraine .

According to official information from Wikipedia, the casinos listed in the OP are neither Russian nor Ukrainian, but registered in Cyprus.

As for the boycott of Russian casinos or any Russian business, the point is to reduce the Russian tax revenues, because that are taxes that fund this war. When Russia runs out of money for war, less people will be killed. The goal of the boycott is for Russia to stop a war in which thousands of people are dying, and that is the most important thing.
The idea is clear. But would it really work even if we boycotted all services run by Russian citizens? You must have noticed how the economic sanctions against those who carried them rebounded, causing the price of the euro to fall to a record level and Europe to enter into an energy crisis on all levels. We are talking about Russia, my friend, not any other country.
On the other hand, what is the fault of those citizens who own the companies that will be boycotted, because this will cause misery to employees in all sectors related to these services, including citizens who are not from Russia and may be Ukrainians in origin.

i am currently thinking if we all boycott all gambling sites or other sites from russia but it turns out that the owners of these sites are not citizens who fully agree with the war being carried out and the owners of these sites have to provide for their families, will we also be that bad? i think boycotting gambling sites is not the right decision because gambling owners don't necessarily support the war to happen. as far as i know, many russians don't agree with the war, but they can't go against putin's decision.
and for gambling sites 1xBET and 1xBit, whether it's russian or not, but i wasn't there. it's not that i support the russian boycott but i'm just afraid that the allegations of the gambling scam have not been resolved
Casino owners are citizens, so they also oppose government decisions but they don't have the power to oppose government policies. I also agree, blocking sites from Russia is not the right solution because it has nothing to do with the conditions of the Russia vs Ukraine war, I'm not talking about 1xBet or 1xBit because they have received bad trust from scam activities.

They don't like what's happening on their country to so its not fair for them to be included on this collective boycotting. Maybe some people think that this could hurt the government but if we think about humanity we can say that joining to boycott their businesses will not do anything good to us or to anyone. For 1xbit? people should boycott that casino because the numbers of accusation is enough for them to tell that they are not good casino.
