    KYC – The mop for cleaning up the mess on the killer, so they can walk away smiling, with 6 billion potential victims and an act that screams “we care” to the public, voters et al. Gambling can destroy your life. Not that it matters.

    Imagine if everyone stopped gambling, how much poverty it would create. The industry doesn’t care. UKGC doesn’t care. Money is the only thing that matters, as long as it’s in their pockets. Thank god people can become hooked, he says, tongue in cheek.

    “Hello George is it ? I just want to check (seen on the screen this div has put £248 in the fobt) you haven’t just blown your family income (I see the poor tvvat now has a £14.50 balance and I know the guy who played this before him, took £650 out of it).

    Well if he has, the only thing that happens now is he is banned from the shop, they keep the money and let the children starve.

    Can I just say the person who truly needs mental help, is the person dangling the carrot. Ruining lives for profit walking away without a care in the world.

    I know this view of mine, upsets those who feed off gamblers, like leeches.

    You’ve just hit the nail on the head igc-rm couldn’t have said it better myself.

    Exactly the same when your at work well my work for example when there is an incident you nearly chop your finger off or potentially worse, you employer: we need to carry out a drug and alcohol test just to make sure you don’t put a claim in when it was probably our fault anyway or you have to sign your life away on lots of documentation and all it’s for is to protect the company from being liable to paying you out even though 9/10 it’s the companies fault in the first place, once again first priority is money not health and safety, which is exactly the point your making gamstop, gamcare or any other shite is just the middle man to protect the money not the person simple as that.

    corrupt as fuck this world but it’s never gonna change!

    corrupt as fuck this world but it’s never gonna change!

    Have faith. Every bit of noise is attempting to chomp at the bit and slowly but surely, things are changing, in small and big ways. It is only the stupid and the industry protection system that defends it’s actions or wants people who speak out, silenced.

    Remember, among the ceo and share holders (where applicable) are the people who design a 2000x profit suck followed by a “At last, a fucking bonus” – Bandit // “Are you fucking kidding me ? After all that, ZERO X !!!!! – Bandit (goes to put his head in the freezer).

    This is why I detest people laugh at the guy losing it in the bookies and smashing the place up. “haha, the dudes mental”. Ironically, it was said that people who gamble tend to have mental health issues. I’m pretty sure it’s the hoovering up of the profits that pushes the people over the edge.

    FOBT : £2 Mega spins taking £200 without giving 5 spins once. An average example today.

    I love it when Bandit moans it in. But I hate it when that shit really does hit the fan, even for someone else.

    The industry is inherently sick. UKGC is pathetic. You can no longer do a £50 roulette spin that takes all of 20 seconds, but you can still spunk £50 in 60 seconds or less. “We care” ? fuck off.

    In Germany they did max bet 1 Euro and max deposit per player 1000 to 1400 euro..so you can spend all 1400 on roulette on one spin or play slots… they also have control of players account so they don’t open multi-account…when you open account now in Germany they will do like credit check on casino how many accounts you have..but gambling credit check is only controlled by Gambling Treaty (Germany gambling license) and only casinos will have access on it..to check for players multi-accounts

    Can I point out that the post was made to try point people needing help in the right direction. As a forum is not the place to necessarily look for it.

    First of all start by asking Seedy and of course Bandit, if its ok to have this whole discussion on this forum. Gambling and lack of control gambling destroys lives while those who profit couldn’t care less.

    I think it’s an insult to ask one set of people to have beliefs while those who make all the money, don’t have them, themselves.

    Go in Ladbrokes and ask them what KYC means. Last conversation I struck up, both managers in there, had no idea what I was talking about.

    There is this idea that a guy who becomes an addict and ruins his life, his family life, his girls life, his childs family life, is to blame. Yet now his world has been ruined by the carrot being dangled and his lack of control, those who run the show, dangling the carrot are what ? stood there looking at ruined lives saying “Well, you can’t come in here no more and thanks for your whole months income”.

    The trickster putting everything on the fool, is an appalling disgrace.

    FORCE EVERYONE TO DNA THEIR WAY INTO THE FOBT HOUSES. Source of wealth them. Make them bring 4 types of ID including their totally irrelevant paypal screenshot. Link GAMSTOP to bookies. NOW. Before another life or lives are ruined. Before another rope hangs a soul.

    This is all just an extension of Seedy’s initial opening post. What they currently offer is the epitome of caring.

    The gambler threw it all away. Funny how the greedy fuckers catching all the money have a biased narrative.

    Hey lil girl, hope you are ok, your dad was found hanging in the woods today having given us all his money. Ne’er mind. You can’t get another dad, but can create more people like you.

    Grim reality. Still coming true.

    VERY importantly, none of the above is a pun at backinamo, bandit and family, or seedy and co. That I feel comfortable to write that here, is something important to me.

    There’s thousands of posts you could have posted on, you could have created your own post and put all this in.

    This post was originally done on purpose for a very specific reason, and didn’t need all this added to it.

    Of course its a discussion that has previously been had and will be continually had so of course you are free to discuss the topic.

    This thread was put up by myself not to start the discussion but at least try to point people in the way of what the governing bodies would consider professional help if they need it as I don’t think using a online forum for this is potentially going to help or solve anyone issue.

    As for what my opinion is can more be done to help people sure most definitely and changes do need to be made to facilitate this.

    But ultimately people also need to truly want the help available to work for it to help them. There is no shortcut to fixing any addiction issue regardless of whether it is drink, drugs or gambling.

    As to how things can be improved I don’t know im not qualified to give what could be the correct answer.

    That’s great, as I had hoped.

    No offence seedy but I know exactly what your intentions of the post were, from the post itself. I just wasn’t aware that

    Can I just say the person who truly needs mental help, is the person dangling the carrot. Ruining lives for profit walking away without a care in the world.

    is a completely separate issue. I in fact assumed the connections were all relevant. I am a little bemused as to why you and xbob want to break it up. I mean….

    A man who chases a gamble and loses everything is a troubled man.
    Yet a man who profits from the above man and couldn’t care less that he does it to thousands of people and families, is a much more deeply troubled man.

    If you want me to go away, I can.
