You normally piss me off with your nerf-happy ways but I think that's the best thing I've read in a while.

I am not nerf happy. Just nerf friendly. And most of the nerfs are just working off things on the master list of things to do.

Casinos == Scam or RMT typically.

Maybe we need /random to not work in EC?

I for one have faith that the developer for p99 has a better knowledge of these things than we do.

Actually on RMT and scam realm, I wouldn't. GMs would. I dont even sit in gm channel or have access to some of their stuff or tool.

It would be the perfect mechanism for RMT though. Lose. 100pp goes over. Lose. 100 plat. Win. Woot, i bet big, 20k winner. Doh!

Ignore lists are of limited size, I don't want to have to waste precious space with annoying casino spam.

Honestly, I was a little surprised the first time I saw them that they are legal on this server. On the 2 original Live servers I was on those things never existed.

Well, glad you have faith but I've been running a legit casino for 4 years and have only known of 2 bad actors (Richgirl, Arrowed) so it sounds like hes casting a net too big.

Outlaw randoms in EC and you'll still have gamblers spamming (no more often than unclassic item links usually) in EC to come to NRO tunnel for gambling.

People making mountains out of a molehill. Even the (1) guy who got scammed said he wants no one banned and thinks outlawing gambling would be a terrible outcome.

I don't agree with banning all casinos either, even though it will solve a lot of problems for the guides.

What I do agree with is making an example out of the people who scam. Ban all of the dude's accounts if he did scam and it wasn't just his power that went out due to tropical storm /q, and call it a day.

I honestly believe people are scamming because there seems to be this perception that there will be no consequences. Instead of this grey area that seems to be lingering, implement a strict no scam policy, and be done with it. A guaranteed ban of all accounts is going to limit the number of petitions related to this crap in the future.

This scenario isn't even remotely happening. There's been 1 scam, not an epidemic like you portray. And it wasn't even a legit scamming, more like a rip-off. Arrowed had been running a legit casino for weeks and had paid out a Cloak of Flames and Fungi x2 already. He lost 2 fungi's within 24 hours and made a terrible decision for which HE ALONE should be punished.

Again just for clarity, This was once instance - and it was not some level 1 casino no one had never heard of running a complete fraud. He was wearing a CoF and Fungi and had legitimately paid out both of those items recently. There is no widespread scamming. This entire thing seems to be solely about spam purists who only want to see un-classic item links, and imaginative GMs musing about RMT possibilities with a casino.
