Umm... I'm not sure who started the "Casino" deal on EQ, but I know I was running one in EC tunnels during the Kunark Era, and a little before on Tarew Marr. I know I was the first to have one there, but then like here... scammers started to pop up too often.

Myself Brunzil, and my best friend/neighbor growing up Mebarak had them running pretty much everyday early on, and even later in Bazaar. We even extended them to other servers by trading TM plat for other plat on other servers. Not sure who started them "officially," but we came up with the idea in 8th grade and never seen anyone have one going before.

So yea... it is classic.

People who gamble 100% know its a scam. They just have money to burn. Same as it's always been. I dare anyone who doesn't know its a scam to speak up on the forum. It's like people who know that cigarettes will give you cancer ahead of time, yet still choose to smoke and then get cancer. Then they complain that they got cancer. It's just human nature to be stupid and gamble.

It's wrong for the GM's to waste even 1 second on this IMO.

Wrong.

There are legitimate people who have ran them before, and will continue to.

Also, just because one smokes, doesn't guarantee you will get cancer... just as on EQ and gambling; it's not a guarantee you will get scammed. Both though are pretty high, and shouldn't risk either to be honest.
