Etsu, every single solitary thing you have said so far in this thread has been based on one simple fallacy; that there is no difference between droppable, and nodrop gear. There is.

I know what server doesn't have player run casinos.

P99!

I'd be interested to know if you found any evidence of them actually being allowed, or if the one line about Tubaked is the only reference to casinos on the entire forums. I am sure any other players from Innoruuk will be happy to back up my claim that player run casinos were not permitted on our server.

EDIT: Leaving my original comment but upon further research there are at least a couple references to player run casinos on Inny, maybe they were just so hated they died out relatively quickly. I'll go ahead and admit that you are right on this and I was mistaken.

Set up your own server and gamble your hearts out.

Blame the guy who logged out after someone won a fungi or manastone as part of the "1 in 1000" gamble.

I doubt the ban would have happened if people kept their word and paid out.

Player run casinos might be classic, but so was paying $14.99 a month. I am very much not for Classic zealotry when it comes to certain things. I'm not sure that Classic devs would have allowed Casinos if they had realized their ties to RMTs at the time.
If the demand is there for gambling (I'm not sure that it is) then I'd support an NPC gambler.
