Bring Casino's Back Petition

[Benz]

Going back to my original post Benz.

If a 14 year old child walked into a casino and managed to exchange their money for casino chips and then went on to play games in the casino using those chips, do you think that would be classed as gambling? Of course it would.

That is in no way different to exchanging your money for Habbo credits then betting in various games of chance. This is what I think anyway.

Besides loads of people sold their casino earnings on line. Isn't that right @Soy; haha

With all due respect I don't care what you think 'gambling' is, I'm only concerned what the actual definition is. This is just getting ridiculous now I've explained to all of you very clearly and explicitly how its not 'gambling'. Now deal with the fact that no matter how much you "think" it was, legally and by the standards of the English language it was NOT gambling.

@Viba fair enough if you want to say that although I was aware I was going to come up against stiff competition from those who disliked casinos. Never the less I am willing to try if I can get support.

dude as much as I truly want gambling back and would do anything to get it back... get over it, it's underage gambling

Are you done? Good.

Back to the original point of this thread, clearly 80% of the people who have posted disagree with casinos and know they won't be coming back, therefore the petition is a waste of time and effort. Nobody wants to help you get casinos back just so you can continue selling things you get from underage people on a black market.
Good luck though.

This is pretty much on the spot.

I find it ignorant that OP is trying to defend stealing money from kids online (credits cost money, so don't try and use that against me moron.)

[Premplus480]

You buy credits with money in real-life then gamble the credits in casino rooms? It is illegal.

That's like an underage better going into a casino and exchanging real-life money for casino chips and then gambling with those chips at the various games in the casino.

What is the difference between that and what happened on Habbo?

You dont have to buy them you can earn them, the choice is there..

Wow, you're getting quite a little worked up over casinos being removed from a game aimed at teenagers.
Why don't you hop on over to a site specifically created for gambling, because casinos won't be returning despite your efforts.

[Benz]

I must being going absolutely mad.. I've explained over and over why it CANNOT be called under-age gambling but instead of coming up with a valid argument the majority of you just label it as such. You have every right to hate casinos on habbo that's your opinion but your opinions don't apply to things which are absolute which is what the definition of gambling is!

GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEADS!

[Empired]

I think he might have a point. I don't think Habbo has banned "gambling" as such. They simply say that betting on randomising furni is against the rules:

Consequences of Placing or Accepting Bets:
These are for players who place or accept bets on the outcome of randomizers or charge other players to play or stay in games that use randomizers. Consequences in this category range from temporary to permanent trade lock, based on the severity of the problem and how many times you have previously been sent alerts or had an account trade-locked.

They don't call it gambling. Not that this really proves anything other than the description of a word.

Underage gambling is illegal

Okay, so you want a different angled argument?
How about this?

So if it's not 'gambling' - Why do you call the rooms 'Casinos'? Are Casino's not a place of gambling?
Since you love definitions so bloody much here is one for you.

CASINO:
A public room or building where gambling games are played

So, now that is out of the way. Please go ahead and tell me how your 'casino's are not for 'gambling'.
As by definition a casino is a place of gambling, so either they aren't casino's or they are gambling. You can't have both here, they go hand in hand.

Hahaha a very witty response, so I too shall reply in kind by saying my rooms were labeled as "Arcades".

ARCADE:
An indoor area containing coin-operated game machines
