Learn to read, Rais. Clearly scamming wasn't "the major reason" if casinos wouldn't be banned if it was the only thing. If you can't even keep up with a 4 page thread, you better bow out and accept the limits of your reading comprehension before even more words appear.
Well I guess I can use your logical and draw conclusions and compare it to something to something pretty retarded, yet something you would think.

Pretending to be Orruar What do you mean help protect the players on our server? Are people being hunted down by the like of old timey mofia cainso owners? Are casinos tied to RMT and the IRS are now targeting players on the server? How about some transparency as to what constitutes "help protect the players". Why can't you be straight forward and tell us if we are about to wake up with a horse head next to us, or get an audit in the mail? Is this server so over populated that you are reporting us yourself to cut back on the players?


Before attacking someone's reading comprehension how about you understand and read the post you so oppose.

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.

You have basic rights in a video game? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

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)

I'm a casino operator? News to me. I played a casino exactly once (to get rid of a golden bracer I didn't want to sell). I just have a problem with new rules that are entirely vague, both in purpose and enforcement.

And I'm also willing to fight to allow people to enjoy this game how they want, as long as they aren't detracting from others' enjoyment of the game. I thought that was the whole point, to maximize enjoyment for everyone.

Don't see anything about spamming. Long as I'm not operating should be g2g spamwise.
Fixed the wording in OP to include advertising.

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.
