I don’t know why you think you can tell anybody wondering when a ban is coming that you are qualified to assure them that there won’t be one. You work in a Casino… so what. Fact is that even the Casinos owners might be left in the dark, never mind the people they employ.
1. I didn’t say they did. However, i do believe the people that made the decision did so based on what they could see. That was streamers content.
2.The UKGC will not ban streamers. They are not performing a harmful act. ……… You say that, but the people trying to get gambling being advertised by any means banned will disagree. They are literally going to make the valid point that gambling streams is gambling advertising. The only real reason they exist is so that the Casinos can get business. A bit like advertising on TV before 9pm. Soon it will be unheard of.
3.You are wrong. Starting from donkeys ago youtube have been removing videos due to advertising and links. Due to the fact people are making money by getting other Adults over 18 to sign up to Casinos. Everybody knows that. I agree there is also the issue of certain music, language and so on that will get a video pulled down… but the main issue is advertising gambling and providing links to sign up (for a special deal). All gambling, including online Poker. Nobody could have predicted black Friday. Not the same to be said concerning slots or other forms of none skill related gambling.
4. I actually knew most of that.
5. I don’t need to work in gambling to predict the future of Affiliation markets concerning gambling. I don’t know why you seem to think because you work for a Casino that you can assure millions of people that the UK GOVERNMENT are going to be unable to stop the 24 hours per day affiliation links and advertising of gambling. They already are- and will continue to do so!! In fact, to the point where affiliation and advertising of Casinos to people OVER 18 will NOT be allowed at all. Common sense really. As much as that might upset people, that is fact. The UK Government stopped big Tobacco, do you think they can’t stop big Casinos? The UKGC are nothing really, they literally only rake in millions for the Government. When the Government tell them to, the UKGC will be the people advertising the end of Affiliation by any tom DICK or harry with a fckn internet connection. It is one ugly as fck business to be in “when considering ” the pain caused OR THAT CAN BE CAUSED by any cunt with an internet connection that spammed the fck out of somebody’s email account causing a serious addiction. It can’t be compared to porn, tobacco or alcohol and drugs. It is totally a league of it’s own and any wanker out to harm others to make a quick buck can get involved. NOT FOR LONG, TAKE MY WORD FOR IT.
6. You are wrong. Just because you work for a Casino doesn’t actually mean you know the ugly truth. Unless the Bandit quit his job and started gambling for a living in the last 6 months, i don’t even understand how you think that is a reasonable excuse.
I’m not coming back to comment any further. There is too many people here that will be offended by the truth or try and come up with excuse after excuse. They will claim to know what they are talking about because they work for a Casino. Pretty sure the actual Bookmakers thought they knew where they stood with the UK Government until they had to be forced to reduce the stakes on FOBT’S. Lol, the Casinos thought the war wasn’t big enough to force a 2 pound max stake and now thousands have lost jobs, shops were shut and continue to close UK wide.
WHY DO YOU THINK THEY REFUSED TO LOWER THE STAKES ON FOBT’S TO A TENNER MAX BET? IT WAS BECAUSE THEY DIDN’T KNOW WHAT THEY WERE UP AGAINST.
5th November 2019 at 6:22 pm #82833Not true , some play slots , with no affiliation , just for a bit off fun . So they would still be streams , not has many but they would still be some .
5th November 2019 at 6:41 pm #82836Whether they sell affiliation links or not, they are advertising gambling 24 hrs per day. When they stopped advertising Cigarette packages in shops, do you think it would be ok for Lambert and Butler to make a youtube channel and advertise their product on it all day every day?
5th November 2019 at 6:46 pm #82837Other brands are available…
Wait, am i in trouble now for advertising Lambert and Butler online?
Shit man… i need a new passport. This is all too much. The butt hurts are everywhere.5th November 2019 at 7:46 pm #82838Streamers playing slots will be fine in terms of retaining their audience on £2 stakes, if it ever happens, though I can imagine many losing their shit at not being able to stake silly money anymore. If they introduced a £2 limit on live roulette, on the other hand….well, that’s quick balance building and the likes of Rocknrolla done for.

I’m reading many of your words such as ” the truth ” and ” take my word for it ” but all i see is speculation. These are not facts these are opinions of you trying to predict the future of what you THINK will happen not what you KNOW will happen. Your guessing with no hard evidence to back up your statements.
5th November 2019 at 10:49 pm #82844People like you Haz are just hoping the streamer bus never comes to an end so that you can ” in your own ridiculous words” go and watch people lose a lot of money so you get your fix and don’t need to gamble. Kind of like a junkie sitting in a room full of drug addicts breathing in second hand smoke. You are not being helped, in fact, the fact you can’t just stop gambling online without leaching of other peoples heavy loses to control your temptations is nothing other than a sure sign of having a serious problem. The only way to fix that is by getting rehab and not watching anything gambling related or spending 7 days per week on gambling forums. So take your opinion to the Psychiatrist. What would you do if you can’t watch other people lose money online ( to stop yourself gambling?) Maybe you need to worry more about that and come up with a plan before your denied fears are recognised. Rather than waste your energy here worrying about my opinion.
5th November 2019 at 11:02 pm #82845Better still… have you ever actually researched what you believe? If not, how do you know you are right? Do you just see shit happen on the internet and randomly think to yourself this is happening and nothing anybody does anywhere can ever stop this happening?
I twist your narrow minded remark back onto you. Where is your evidence that everything is fine, streaming slots won’t/can’t come to an end, the stakes can’t be reduced online like FOBT’s ….or how can you even prove that video slots raping the fck out of UK players by reducing the RTP (again, without telling them) is normal? Sometimes i just wish people like you weren’t entitled to an opinion… if you class it as more important and factual than any other that doesn’t suit you opinion. Simply based on the fact you are in denial or a bubble that seemingly can’t be burst by no man or organisation that YOU “know fck all about”.5th November 2019 at 11:07 pm #82846Please provide the evidence where i said watching people lose a lot of money. As for been on gambling forums 7 days a week you have made more posts on the forum in a week than i have in the last month. I didn’t realise you were a qualified psychiatrist either. I can take or leave streamers videos proving that by following rolla and the bandit as they are currently uploading the least amount of footage online. Does that bother me nope. I’m 5 months without playing a slot or having a bet after 30 years of gambling and you know what I’m fuckin proud of that achievement. I don’t NEED the videos to help me stop but like i said they give a buzz to an ex player like myself. I don’t enjoy watching anyone lose money streamer or hearing anyone lose on this forum and my track record will prove that to anyone. I’m not anti gambling i advise responsible gambling to those who are not problem gamblers and always willing them a big win. Why i need to justify myself to you fuck knows.
5th November 2019 at 11:14 pm #82847I didn’t say the gambling streaming world will continue forever. Tbh i don’t think about it. I see what i see today and if streamers and videos are ever banned and sites come out the uk then so be it. I’ve been around long enough before gambling videos and I’ll be here after them. You have no idea how laid back i am and don’t care what will affect me in the future whether there are videos or not but I’ll tell you this nothing in this world will make me play an online slot roulette black Jack poker or any other form of online gambling again.
5th November 2019 at 11:30 pm #82850Ok sorry… not lose money. You are an addict that can’t stop watching gambling rather than just live a normal life knowing it isn’t for you. Sitting week after week involved in watching gambling and commenting on forums isn’t good for any recovering addict. Just like an Alcoholic sitting in the pub to help himself, you are in denial and need to understand why. I’M NOT HAVING AGO AT YOU, I JUST THINK MAYBE YOU NEED TO THINK ABOUT THAT. I wouldn’t want to be that guy who wants to make an addict feel bad.
I have been commenting 1 week, which surprises me knowing i usually get banned for an unpopular opinion after 24 hours.
Watching less doesn’t make up for the fact you can’t stop. If that was the case there would be stalkers going to Court and telling the Judge not to worry as they only watch the ex’s movements once or twice per week now.. so they can’t be obsessed!
Sorry to wake you up, but stopping gambling for 5 months after 30 years is fck all… especially when you can’t actually leave that life behind. You need to move and and stop worrying about anything gambling related. I hope you do, because as much of a cunt as i might sound right now… i speak the truth and nothing but. Stop listening to people telling you watching their stream will help you stay off gambling. It is a lie created to help them keep streaming. It was a lie created years ago because people started to worry about the END of what had been. The end is near. So get help before you fall back into playing due to the lack of videos.You don’t need to justify yourself to me… just as i don’t you. However, and you will think about this one way or another, you need to prove yourself to yourself. Imagine a world where you couldn’t watch a stream or videos to keep yourself from gambling. Imagine a life where my opinion based on recent facts and statistics regarding the gambling industry didn’t disappoint you. Imagine not giving a fck about gambling because you know you could ruin your life through it.
Good luck, i wish you well. I mean that!!5th November 2019 at 11:38 pm #82851. “I’ve been around long enough before gambling videos and I’ll be here after them”. … Yea but you weren’t a recovering addict then. You are now.
you have no idea how laid back i am and don’t care what will affect me in the future whether there are videos or not but I’ll tell you this nothing in this world will make me play an online slot roulette black Jack poker or any other form of online gambling again.
Yea, you’re correct… i don’t know. All i know is that i wish you well and strengths to continue to remain gamble free. I would suggest an end to forums and viewing. Most addicts will promise to never go back, but they are usually hanging onto part of their past. Just like you.5th November 2019 at 11:52 pm #82852This is utter drivel.
It’s like every few minutes another meaningless thought pops in to your head that you must write it down, although that being said given the length of your posts you presumably start writing the next one straight after posting.
I hope you do get banned, not for having an “unpopular opinion” as you call it, but just because your posting so many unconstructed and incoherent thoughts.
As for your comments to Haz, you have undoubtedly spent more time posting here than he has so there some irony in that, and to then criticise someone’s progress in what they are trying to achieve is just perplexing for what is meant to be a support community.
15th November 2019 at 11:55 pm #82853Why suggest an end to forums and viewing when the formula I’m using is working? I take it you’ve not read many of my previous posts offering advice support and even sometimes financial help to others who have posted on this forum. With the vast experience and knowledge i have in gambling i can and have put that to good use on forums helping those that need it. I will continue to help those that ask where i am able so therefore will not be leaving anytime soon. If you have as much knowledge as you imply you have then but your own knowledge to good use to the people who need it.

Well he did wish me well mate ?? but he seems to know what’s best for me. Maybe he’s a mind reader lol. You know i can think of about a dozen people who are now registered on gamstop on here who weren’t when i joined the forum and that’s partly because of this great support community and mainly to the people who found the courage to sign up.
