Be glad you don't live near a Native American casino (or near Vegas). With that gambling addiction, if you did you'd probably already have pawned the computer you used to type that post ;-)

Real question: Do you die if you duel on blue? If so, this idea has a ton of potential.

I heard some casinos be setting up shop in 3rd gate. Down by the docks some street thugs playing dice and whatnot. And the Necropolis for the high rollers. These ne'er do wells had to find somewhere to conduct their underground activities

I feel like there's potential here. Enchanters, Druids, and shamen charming black wolves and then buffing them and setting them on each other in EC.

Could be good.

IF they did reopen, no petitions, no help with fraud, player beware.

You guys have no imagination.

1. recruit a stable of newb gladiators L5 to L20, pay them with noob lewts, share wolfform the combatants before each battle
2. bet on the duels
3. conclude the extravaganza with a grand melee, with prizes
4. ...
5. profit!

Juntsie should be hired to create disclaimers for the gladiators and the bettors absolving the GMs of any liability.

You need to recruit RePorters to post on the forums about corruption, gladiators taking dives, & etc.

Main storyline should end up with Filbus being lifetime banned from fight arenas because of alleged ties to RV Mafia and fight fixing. Somehow Kekephee will talk his way out of sanctions, possibly by hiring top legal talent (Juntsie) to defend him (or maybe just by bribing the judges).

Has it been suggested to allow "licensed" casinos? Something like... if you want to run a casino you have to pay like 10k plat for a license (pay to who? idk give it to an npc or something and a GM confirms it). Once licensed the character you run to casino with is added to a list of reputable players allowed to run a casino... If you don't payout to a winner then you lose your license. idk something like that...

The licensed casino idea was brushed upon but it would be more work for the staff. There's lots of things that could be done to alleviate lots of problems but the time, work, effort, possible bug fixes & more that comes with the "new system" would have to be worked out also. I would not want more work given to me when I was already swamped with enough to do as it is; so how could I or we expect or demand more than what is already a fun & working game?

One example of where some fixes could help moreso:
In the Red forums they are saying how people are logging in & stripping characters.
Maybe if the IP is different from the 'usual' or main IP that is used a box pops up stating the IP is not the usual one & with a single question that only the real user would know. Example: your Aunt Lisa's Bday or some odd Q&A check box... but much like a lot of what's here... it's just a pipe dream probably, hehe

Never understood the appeal of casinos or lotteries.

Want to lose your money? Go bet where the probabilities are not in your favor!
