Guess i should read the forums more often... didn't even know this happened.

I can't believe there is a 31 page thread complaining about the change or any change for that matter. This is a free server. They make the rules. it's a simple concept. If you don't like playing here under their rules for free. Then go elsewhere. I feel bad for the legit Casinos out there . I do. I am sure there were some cool people who ran them. But at the end of the day... We are in their world . With no expense to us. There might be a day where they make a change i don't like. Then it is up to me to decide whether it is a game breaker or not. But i can tell you i won't be complaining about it. i will simply leave. IF this were on Sony Live servers where you actually payed a sub .. i can see this thread existing. But not here.

The tunnel has simply not been the same without the casinos. Thread deserves at least another 100 pages. Decisions like these turn greengrocer blue.

FREE TOOKIE! FREE REINCE! FREE MARIACHII! FREE DUNGEONMASTER (yes even dungeonmaster)!

Seriously, though... selling sandwiches is boring enough and then they take away my slot machines and trust me .. tunnel immersion levels are at an all-time-low.

Booze sales are already down 300% and I'm having a hard time paying my torch bill. Been visited twice by two big Ogres who keep asking when I'm going to have my "Ogguk security fee." I just don't know how much longer I can continue like this.

We might need to hold a rally in EC to bring back the casinos.

HANDS UP! DON'T BET!

WHAT DO WE WANT? (GAMBLING!) WHEN DO WE WANT IT? (SOON, PREFERABLY!)

Need some guidance: If another shaman and I choose to have our dogs fight and we gamble over the outcome, is that considered a casino or is that just good wholesome fun?

I've heard chatter from a few different folks who want to set up some sort of pet fighting ring and I love all of it. I hope it happens. If it does, I am willing and able to provide refreshments to the spectators.

"Hey, beer man!"

I didn't read a full 16 pages of this, but is it so difficult to understand that since 100% eradication of the RMT plat market is impossible, in-game gambling is a slippery slope to real money gambling? Even if you're hosting a game and have no ties to RMT, someone might be wagering plat they bought with real money and selling their winnings. If you're pretending not to understand this, you're either in denial, or guilty of RMT.

EC casinos were fun, but I was always surprised they were allowed to exist at all.

Or............... It was the last avenue for people not associated with the gms/staff to sell RMT and by doing this they've effectively closed all competition. Platlord I mean Derubael wins
