Auctioning casinos/spamming as a casino is still legal as long as you don't accept any bets according to new rules.

Quellious server had casinos during Kunark/Velious era. I'm sure some Moonlight Crusaders can verify.

How do you know this? Perhaps it was all the casino spam that was a factor in shutting down the casinos. They haven't specified the rules or the reasons for the rules, so you have no idea whether such an action would result in a ban.

"Operation or use of "casinos", including, but not limited to, dice rolls, card games, "guessing" games, and any other form of gambling."

Don't see anything about spamming. Long as I'm not operating should be g2g spamwise.

I've been here since Nov 2009 like I said.. I think the server came up in October of 2009? I've never RMT'd never planned on it never will... I've never been accused of scamming and having it be legitimate (It was always someone who hated casinos just trolling) I want to know how MY actions are causing issues... otherwise I don't see what issues are arising due to properly run casinos.

no its called sandbox vs themepark and this one just got the railway tracks installed (because you are stuck to a path and are not allowed to deviate from that path)

Fixed the wording in OP to include advertising.

The casino ban to me is more than just a ban.. it an infringement on basic rights that should be applied even if it's just a video game...

I really hate to say it, but the only rights or privileges you have on this server are the ones Nilbog, Rogean, and the rest of the staff provide for you. We reserve the right to take those privileges away at any time. You aren't being persecuted, there is no discrimination, and there is no such thing as 'the basic right to run a casino'. That's simply not a thing.

Anyone who wants to run a casino is welcome to do so in any number of other places... the live servers, WoW servers, other MMORPGS, hell, go find and old text based MUD and run one there - I have some recommendations for good ones to try.

I am truly sorry if this has ruined anyone's Project 1999 experience, but this decision is in-line with everything we've aimed this serve towards since it's inception.

<3 you all, the world isnt ending, you'll survive.
