[Rb Rbreen91 WANTED $493 Outlaw]

The rbreen91 benevolent fund.

On a serious note though, there are a lot of worthy charities. Especially at this time of year.

[Eightblack WANTED $446 Outlaw]

I agree mate, I’d much rather know a charity benefited than hope a scamming cunt didn’t x

Wowzers, didn’t realise there were people who’d put in multiple entries. Disgraceful if true, it’s just spitting on Steve doing something nice in the most selfish, anti-Christmas way possible. I agree, there’s no end of charities who could use the money for something good.

The random giveaways were good . But even that had it’s pitfalls . ?

It’s the root of all evil mate especially when it’s free. As soon as these people get a sniff of free money they are like a pack of wolves.

I think what I hate the most is that it makes me cynical and see the worst in people. And I’m doing okay now but I’ve had times even in the last year or two where I’ve been down on my luck in various ways, indeed before Gamstop there were times I haven’t helped myself with the gambling as a poor way of escapism from other problems, but the chancers and the begging and the stuff like this with the draw entries, it just means every time now someone who might be genuine posts a story about how they’re struggling, I instantly think “yeah bullshit”, even though I’ve been there myself. I don’t like that it erodes my compassion.

There are a few of us on the forum who think exactly the same:

I think most of us here are good judges of character and the contributions you have made to this forum could never be questioned. The one off post sob stories are the hinters and are easy to spot. I have read 100’s of posts venting about losing sessions and would always encourage people to post the bad as well as the good but some posts just blatantly stand out.

[Winningbird WANTED $574 Outlaw]

Excellent idea Haz. Cash for kids or a homeless shelter would be more than grateful for any donations this time of year. If I had the money to, I would have opened up a kitchen for them all this year. Breaks my heart seeing the genuinely homeless people out on the streets. Same with kids in orphanages or in care. I’d love to adopt the lot of them.

 

As for posting about losses, I think it’s really important for people to do this. 99% of gamblers know how it feels after a bad session. Never mind if you’ve just blown your whole bank funds for the month. Speaking out can prevent self harm,  and suicide.. and if that means telling a load of strangers on the internet how pissed off you are with your self and what you’re supposed to have spent the money on, then so be it. I would much rather see begging threads on BIAM than a news paper article about someone killing themselves because of gambling/gambling related debt. We help if we can. We dont if we cant. I try to help with way of words.. shit but it helps sometimes.

I’m rambling ?

Should The Bandit decide to make a donation to any charities instead of the free draw, may I suggest Cats Protection (cats.org.uk) as a charity very dear to my heart. Regardless, if anyone here can afford to sign up and donate even £3 a month to them, they are in urgent need of more sponsors particularly at this time of year.

We all know Steve does plenty for charitable organisations. But the point of the post is that people are shit Cunts and it’s better that it goes to charity than it going to some shitcunt who tries to play the odds.

would I be buzzing if I won 3 grand at this time of year? Yes. Do I care if I don’t? No.
