ItsBondie Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Hello UltraNetwork! I'd like to tell you a little about a known issue that's been going around the community lately, we've seen so many reports of players getting scammed in casinos. I'd like to stop this by suggesting a new rule. (not saying it's getting implemented, just saying it's my suggestion) 20.0 - Betting and in-game gambling of cash and / or items is not allowed due to the number of scams happening. 20.1 - Any player who is participating in a casino / betting their cash in any casino or other game that holds the fact of having to bet in-game cash or items, should not be allowed and is bannable. 20.2 - In the event a player is betting or gambling (asking a player to pay for a chance to win something) should not be allowed. Keep in mind, this is what I think about it. This is in no way connected to UltraNetwork unless it gets approved. !!THIS IS A SUGGESTION, NOT AN ACTUAL RULE!! I'd love to hear your thoughts about it -Jen Link to comment Share on other sites
Drawslob Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 I agree completely with this suggestion. There are a lot of people that have casino's and more often than not it leads to unnecessary discussion or even worse, scamming. Link to comment Share on other sites
Ariewan Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 100% agree with this. The number of scam complaints has skyrocketed recently, and there really is no no way of policing it.Not to mention the spam from 4-6 people advertising casinos all at once. I would personally love to see Casino plots removed. Link to comment Share on other sites
Miniowl Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Great suggestion. Not only are practically all the casinos scams - they may give birth to unecessary and unhealthy habits. Gambling is bad mkay. Link to comment Share on other sites

Exactly, not only gambling is prohibited in most countries for teenagers, this also encourages the players to start doing it in real life which may cause a huge impact on their lives. Therefor, I want it gone... Link to comment Share on other sites
arcseth Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Not all casinos are a scam, I open up my casino and it clearly 1/3 of green and 2/3 of red. It just depends on the luck of player. They need to know that going to casinos might be scams. but obviously you can find the good ones. Casinos are all about losing. Link to comment Share on other sites

This is true, however, the fact of paying someone for a *CHANCE* to win something back shouldn't be allowed in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites
arcseth Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 It still should be legal, people play it for fun. People need to know that going to casino that they will lose money or profit some. Link to comment Share on other sites
GenericName123 Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 Majority of people complain about casinos being "scams" because they're salty that they didn't win. Link to comment Share on other sites

Skully Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 I personally fail to see how this is going to stop scamming from occurring via gambling. If a player is scamming another player, then they are completely showing disregard for the server rule against scamming - if we make gambling against the rules, it's not going to stop scammers from completely ignoring the rule about no gambling and still going ahead to do so. If they don't care about the scamming rule, then they won't care about this rule preventing casinos from being made. Players who are none the wiser or don't know about the rule will continue to participate in casinos/gambling games and lose money.

This is the same as saying video games encourage players to go and cause violence in real life, completely false. I'm all for coming up with a way to prevent the number of scammings occurring due to gambling, however completely removing them isn't going to solve it. Link to comment Share on other sites

As stated above, Skully will most likely not add the rule, us staff members are probably gonna have to moderate casinos more often if this problem keeps occurring.
