Regarding Casinos and Gambling

[Devin]

It's time to straighten this out as people are unable to understand what admins tell them.

If you are going to gamble in a casino, then you use money to place your bet. Money, not a vehicle or property that you will then sell to pay if you lose.
If you want to use a property or vehicle as collateral for your gambling, then sell the vehicle or property and take that money with you to the casino.

~ Scamming in the casino is NOT allowed; whether that's through the scripted gambling (automated systems ex; blackjack) or  /dice (/use).

You are not allowed to go to the casino and place bets with no money and claim "I will sell this or that to pay if I lose". That will no longer be allowed as a form of payment for bets.


Cash bets or no bets. Your choice.

*Only the bet will be returned; not the money that would have been included in the winnings.


Illegal gambling (outside of a casino) has no rules, but it also has no protection from scamming. Don't come running to staff members if someone scams you when you're gambling with a player outside of a casino as we have no reason to deal with it.

What if they still do this? this will lead them to ban?

[Devin]

It will lead to punishment as it's not a legal form of gambling inside of a casino. All dependent on the administrators discretion. Be that a tempban or full ban.

Alright thanks.

[Spike.]

What if /dice is added so people can do raffles and such?

[Brian]

Yes, I have this bookmarked now.

You know honestly, we could spend more time actually scripting if we spent less time replying with the same messages to the same suggestions. I think in the last week alone I've said the same thing about this at least 5 times.

We have a plan and it's not as simple as copy-pasting from RS4. It will be re-introduced.

You know he's not asking when /dice will be added...

Cops should handle illegal gambling

If both parties agree to gamble on an object it would be ridiculus to make it against the rules.

[Celso]

Shouldn't it be more  of a roleplay situation then a admin situation? Scamming new players i understand but if they are both agreeing on something and one ends up not paying it should be a police issue not server administration.. 

[eymas]

Because it was never intended to allow gambling with objects, and as said its ridiculously easy to scam on it.
Just like how I said you could emulate /dice by rolling dice in real life (which every household would have), trusting the player is the seesaw where things can go horribly wrong.

It should but it wouldn't fit with Argonath, cops do not have the ability to seize items, nor the ability to check evidence to see if someone actually did gamble, did bet, etc, etc. And if we would allow it, staff would just constantly get PMed with .. scammed me, .. scammed that guy, etc. That's why the automated script was made, so people were not able to scam as they would bet money and it'll actually scriptly be sent to the other player.

Illegal gambling (gambling outside of a casino) has no rules but it also has no protection from staff which is what I am saying.
If people want to gamble with other assets, properties or vehicles then do so outside of a casino.

Any deals made within a casino are cash bets.

You Can't gamble outside of Casino tho.

[Stivi]

[Salmonella]
