Real Player warning Casino ripoff with screen shot
Slore, I've had my musing in shouts about gambling in the past. How all you "casino" dudes take advantage of players.
Think of this as karma. Like someone said above, it's gambling. So it's your fault you put your faith in some douchebag. And no, I've never gambled nor have I lost anything. I'm too smart for that. I work for my gil like a real man.

Because everyone can just farm to pay for a craft, when they can't even afford their equipment to get a higher level. Arrogant ***. I don't care how high your craft is, there's no reason to say something like this.

I don't care how high your craft is, there's no reason to say something like this. You can farm from Lv.3+ and make 10-12k/stack from Windy and something like 5k/stack from Bastok. So yes.. Everyone can just farm to pay for a craft or farm for equipment for higher level gear. Assuming you're on about Lv.50+ then they won't have any problem farming. It is too bad you were jipped of your gil, hope a GM does get you your gil back. Personally I avoid Casinos in this game, but I really don't see anything wrong with using them.
It is not a guarenteed way to earn gil, it can easily have the reverse effect, and you have to work to earn it anyway to gamble it away in the first place. It isn't fair to bash someone who does it (this is ALL in my opinion, I am not flaming anyone), although I would suggest avoiding it, especially since this is not offical, you can easily be cheated. There are those game boards scattered around though, much more offical and if you win you automatically get what you earn.

Atrithk, you're not on my server, so you can have a fine serving of shut the *** up.
Anyone who does casinos has the chance to be ripped off. But Slore.... he's ran casinos, and can vouch and say he hasn't ripped anyone off, casino runners take advantage of the public. Most people who run casinos or go out and participate in them are too lazy to make their own gil the real way. It took a couple years of blood, sweat, and tears to get where I'm at (I have a real life and serve the military, so it took longer for me)... and to be an instant bajillionaire... not fair, man, not fair at all. Fyyvoaa said: Yasko said: Fyyvoaa said: This is why you shouldnt fund those poor shitholes, I don't even know how many casino idiots I have /blisted, but it's running into the 30s. They need to learn to play and stop stealing peoples money. So you blisted 30ish people who ran casinos that steal your money? Or you got your money stolen a couple times and bare a grudge against all people who run casinos? If you were good at gambling the best way is probably do either gamble a little at a time instead of aiming to break the bank. That way you can get the feel for somebody's "trustworthiness" instead of putting them in a tight spot where they'd might think it's better to ditch out with the money. Ludoggy said: Yasko said: "Insurance" anybody? Really if it was legal, I wouldnt *** get insurance on my car <.< It has a possibility of being legal maybe. If it was you, claiming freedom of religion. Why would anyone in their right mind place an ante on their own destruction? In spiritual practice, that's like inviting it. It's an act of prayer for it. I'm not here to really fight or change the legal system, as it is all hearsay anyway... No, it's just that I'm tired of *** going into Jeuno and getting spammed by 6+ different casino people, if it was one I would understand but getting spammed about 20 lines per minute is dumb. I'm in Jeuno all the time and don't notice it THAT often...A little overdramatic are we? Burrows said: Atrithk, you're not on my server, so you can have a fine serving of shut the *** up.

It took a couple years of blood, sweat, and tears to get where I'm at (I have a real life and serve the military, so it took longer for me)... and to be an instant bajillionaire... not fair, man, not fair at all. haha Burrows your such a tool. For one no one forces anyone to use a casino it's thier choice. Even though i no longer run one you have never heard of me ripping anyone, ever! As far as me being lazy wow if only you knew. Next time you want some food made and im on Slore pick anything any level and watch me craft it or if you need leather made send me a tell on Firewalker hes 98 leather. My lazyness seems to allow me to spend alot of time farming and crafting. Next time you in sandy see how many stacks of ram leather ive sold you think that ***appears out of the sky? Also look around at how many signed Austere pieces there are out there with my name on them. On the plus side I will commend you on your service to our country My father and I served and my brother still does. I wont knock you for that so see i do have something good to say about you :) BTW I was 11B D Co. 2nd of the 54th Inf Ft Benning GA :) Go go Sandhill and the starships! Scott

Similar to a person winning KC in a BCNM.. how is this unfair? What makes this person less deserving of said gil than yourself? There are different ways to attain gil. Some of those ways always have (and will continue) to step on some toes.

heres the deal with casinos, 0-420 you have a 42% chance of doubling your money, the casino has a 58% chance to take your money,580-999 is the same chances, well actually its a little less because i don't think you can roll a 1000, now where they hit ppl is the offering of 5 x your bet on the 421-579 you have a 15.8% chance of winning this and you'd usually just put a bet of say 100k on that where 84.2% of the time you'll lose, here it is in simple form:
100 bets on low or high at 10k a bet you will win 42 so get 420k casino will win 58 so gets 580k, thats a difference of 160k, where has that gone, in the casino's pocket. 100 bets on mid at 10k a bet you will win 15.8 x 5 = 790k, the casino will win 842k thats 52k in the casinos pocket. so no matter how you look at it, the casino always wins, the odds are stacked against you! zomg, player-run casinos are prone to trust issues lol
I remember /blist'ing Slore for a while, nothing personal, I /blist all casino spam in whitegate... so I'm curious, the law of averages says you most likely came out way ahead, so why did you stop running your casino? |
