betflipping

It needs to be deleted.

Morally: You're making 90% of the server (especially the 12 year olds) gambling addicts.

Most importantly: Players lose all their money/items, cry/get pissed off and decide to quit for good/kill themselves. The playercount certainly hasn't flourished lately.

I am a big gambler in real life. I go through phases of losing big money and winning big money to. It is very stressful when you lose but that's on your own doing.

Do i think betflipping should be on era? I do for selfish reasons because i enjoy it but i disagree with it because it promotes gambling and gambling is 18 or 21+ in most country's. I am pretty sure it is illegal to have it on era due to age restrictions as you're promoting gambling to people under-age.

Like i said, I enjoy it and I've lost millions but i would understand why it was removed (if removed).

That's my 2 cents on it.

Same. Thought that one was good to go, especially after a weak Mexican side took it to them. England just isn't playing how they should be.

I've been killing it on friendlies overall though. Trying to build up that stack for the real thing. Placing some futures on some teams to get out of group already.

I'm just going to point out that it's only illegal if you are gambling with real currency.

the problem is that most people on era are under 18, therefore not qualified to make such decisions

step 1. Player bets
step 2. Player loses all his money
step 3. Player quits

Result: Lower playercount

I can upload a drawing if needed.
