At there very least, there needs to be some sort of in-game regulation. Otherwise, there is absolutely no guarentee the "casino" will pay up.

It's not about the scams, stupid people that fall for casino scams usually deserve a hard lesson in gullability.

Casino's should be banned from this game, like every other MMO, because of the spam. The spam affects everybody inside a district, and the amount will reach ridiculous levels if casinos are not squashed immediately. Those that disagree have no clue abut casino history in MMOs, and how problematic it gets when you have over ten dealers spamming their gamble odds in every town and channel, every 10 seconds.

That is not an exaggeration, the casino spam WILL become that horrible if not dealt with.

Since this thread is a clone of another one, I may be repeating myself. OH well. Shit happens.

Wtf is the point? I thought I purchased guildwars to play the game, compete, and become a guild member or something. I didn't want to pay 59.99 for dwarven vegas getaway. If people want to gamble, and no, the argument that is adds some realism to the environment is a festering pile of fecal matter, then they need to go to a poker site and pay out the nose to win big cash prizes and spam in their email box. Spam on gmail is bad enough, but spamming for something that has no place in my virtual existence isn't merely annoying, it is downright absurd on the base level.

It's not about added interaction, its about less work to get reward. You wanna double your money? Kill something, slavage its panties, and repeat.

They need to put a stop to this NOW! Some people clearly have their characters set up to spam their little casino pitches every 10 seconds. I will stop playing the game if this is the crap I have to put up with just to find a group to complete a mission or quest.

He's right. I abhorred going to Ironforge (in World of Warcraft) not so much becuase of the lag, but becuase people would spam endlessly about their casinos. WoW banned them, and I'm sure Arenanet will ban them too.
