I proceeded to have a friend log random chars openly betting while talking in /say and /shout about winning. At the same time a second friend was openly condemning my casino, saying it's a scam and not to trust me. This went on for a good hour or so like I said, and then my friend who claims I'm scamming throughout ooc "plays" my casino with 10k bet and won triple the amount, apologizing profusely in occ that I am not a scam what so ever.

At that point people would immediately flock to me giving me platinum for bets that ranged anywhere from 100pp to 30k one time. I keep doing the "casino rolls" accepting bets and giving no payouts until they catch on. Log off, transfer all the Plat and high end loot I was wearing (more "proof" my lvl 30 Alt has a rich main that can afford to do this casino). Get another char PLed and do the casino again a week later.

Eventually I had a GM issue a cease and desist through tells and I got suspended for ignoring it while arguing casinos aren't against the rule of the game. Bastards.
I always seen this very same /ooc and /say interactions going on around casinos rofl. So you were one of them guys. haha.
