For a while there the members were posting a bit more however the interest levels appear to have dropped recently.
Come on folks there must be a load of stories, news and experiences you'd like to share.
By the way has anyone seen the streamer called Foss. What is the numpty all about? He goes on stream with a hairstyle that looks like there is a dirty bog brush on his head and bets fake amounts like $50,000 on bonus buys and his acting is woeful. Unbelievably 138,000 other numpties felt the need to subscribe to this utter muppet. Seriously!
Yeah I've watched him and it's horrendous. Just another crypto casino scammer. A few years back he was a graphic designer and now he is doing $100k bonus buys and $50k blackjack hands. Yeah seems likely.
As much as Chris plugs the forum even the main boys themselves seldom make use of it. It's just me and you two, Rownvella, Gamesroom and one of the Paul's that bothers.
The amount of times I've considered starting thread saying '£50 give away'......that's when you'll see everyone post. People are only bothered about freebies, not posting on a forum site. The nature of a gambler though is to be selfish and only seen when they want something. I love this forum because it has allowed me to spew whatever I need to about gambling and speak with others about it. I spoken to both of you via DM's and you're good people. It's nice to have this social outlet. I don't use Twitter or Facebook so it's good to be here. It's also a friendlier place than The Bandit's forum or CG which really is only used for big wins and complaints. Nice little accompany of people here.
I've given up watching new streamers. Most are fake. I've started watching Chris' videos a lot because he puts a lot of effort in and he genuinely loves it. Started watching Kev but.....as he is on a 6 month break....I think he's probably burnt out. Must be hard to keep regular content going.
Forum's are old school networking which is why they die a death unfortunately. You aren't going to get people posting unless there's something in it. For me, as mentioned before it's an outlet. I think if Jimbo and Craig were a bit more interactive via videos and forum you may see an increase in use but they have their lives and families with this as a side interest. Everything is time and money nowadays both of which can be better spent than on a forum.
Still, I appreciate the regulars here showing up and keeping it real!
Hey all -
Yeah the forum can go quiet then have some good periods of interaction.
it’s difficult to keep it active a lot, it requires a decent percentage of the members to contribute. Most who sign up probably wait on giveaways etc, which is fine, but does not help the forum being very busy!
my 6 months break is now only 3 months, I was a little burned out but it was mostly due to the fact I am a pretty unlucky gambler and I needed a wee step back!
But I’m back in May and looking forward to it.
Me and Chris from low stakes set up the gamblers den tournament to try and bring more interaction - it helped a little but if you don’t get picked, I guess the majority will lose interest.
We might try do something a little different next time - but I can say this, it’s very costly. All in all the tournament will cost me over a grand to do - prob the same for Chris although he has had a little more luck!
anyway, any ideas to keep the forum going let me know and I can say to the boys!
see you all soon on stream
I will make more time for the forum & appreciate everyone who keeps it as active as it can be.
Good to see you making a return Kev
That said, aside from the big wins section it's always going to be tough to keep a fairly niche forum busy all the time, particularly as it gets warmer (way better things to be doing than sat at home playing / watching / talking slots) and during periods where the slots are cold / new games maybe aren't generating the same buzz as some of the releases over the past few years?
See if I could get the polls on here like on YouTube I would do them here as well, 100 Spin Challenge, Slot vs Slot, Original vs Megaways, game to max etc the polls are brilliant as it gets everyone involved, people also get to see the games want to see in the videos.
Also the Viewer vs Viewer mini bonus hunt I do is brilliant, pick 5 games each, 3 main games, 2 for back up just incase we get the 3 main games quick, go a max 100x in each game. Person left with the most cash after opening the bonuses is the winner. There would be a different 2 names getting picked each time which would get a lot more people involved, where the league just now if your name doesn't come up you can't enter until its over, which is for weeks and weeks. We could even put the winners in to a league where the top player wins something else at the end, score it like the league just now, 1 point for a bonus, 1 point for 100x and 5 points for a 1000x..
We could do that down the road after the leagues finished or something like that, Its so simple and easy for everyone to follow the rules.
Sorry troops im still in treatment and rarely gambling. Did laugh at weemonks 50 quid giveaway comment 👌 never been a truer statement made on this forum 👏😂
Nothing too serious I hope? Hope you get better soon.
It should be made known upfront by all fake or streamers who have deals with casinos to use casino loaded funds, and recieve a % of wins.
Putting out vids of 50k bonus buys as if it is their own money and not being upfront about the true origin of the money or casino deals.
well that's the world we live in now, me & Craig have a backlog of ideas that we intend to bring in, such as the lot request section, the only issue is our dev works full time and this is on the backburner which we've always accepted, it just means that things we want to bring that could potentially help the forum be more active take longer than we would like
Hopefully we can see a few things come into play in the upcoming weeks
