You could look at it this way as well. Gambling is : "to play a game in which you can win or lose money or possessions.." (Looked up on Merriam more definitions if you so please) so no gambling actually goes down within EQ unless you give an actual value to Plat or items (which in this case are just pixels with no tangible existence). The problem isn't casinos the problem is giving Value to said pixels, and by enforcing a BAN on casinos you also reinforce that these pixels have monetary value.

Do you honestly think you are going to lawyer them into reversing the decision?
