It us quite hard for an addict to quit gambling, but if you really want to quit it you can do it, you just need to work on yourself,  shear your ideas about gambling wisely ...

As you said, gambling is very difficult to stop because the addictive effect is very strong, especially since the gambler is given 4x wins in 1 week and 3x gambling losses. With calculations like that, it means the win rate is 60% win and 40% lose.
By still having a profit percentage in gambling for 1 week, it means that in the days to come the gambler will be more enthusiastic about gambling and aim for a higher win rate than before, for example if he wants the win rate to be 70% -30%.

I also have many friends who gamble, at first they borrowed Fiat money worth 2-3 dollars for deposits but over time the loan increased again to 5-7 dollars and the worst thing is that they haven't paid me their debt until now, until this moment.
This seems normal and crazy for them (perhaps) because they don't pay me what they owe, but for me the 7 dollars is a lock for them so they don't borrow from me again to gamble. All of them (friends) not wisely for gamble, so bad.

gambling It's not bad if it's just for a moment's entertainment, but back to each individual,

If the concept is for Entertainment and Fun, everyone can also judge it well because everyone also needs entertainment, but gambling is entertainment that uses money and causes adrenaline to increase drastically.
From the presence of this adrenaline that results in us being able to do anything when we need gambling but we don't have the funds, and with all the efforts that gamblers do that can lead to negative things such as crime, etc.

how do they perceive and prioritize gambling, because most gamblers will definitely commit criminal acts when they are addicted to gambling and don't have the funds, whatever they do to be able to gamble

From here we can learn that gambling tends to be more negative, even though you say gambling is for entertainment and fun, the negative effects are quite large.
Except, for brands that gamble, they must have a concept of gratitude and limit funds because every day these gamblers gamble and must be limited, winnings must also be limited and gambling with losses must also be limited.

Maybe the conclusion is that gambling is enough for entertainment, but don't do it excessively and must be limited and don't forget to be grateful whether you win or lose.

Maybe it's better after that I will give a PM to the member so that he can improve the quality of his post and make it more useful in creating threads.
In the context of problems like this, we have to be wise and provide solutions to members who make mistakes because this is a warning or suggestion so that they can be better at the altcoinstalks forum.

Unfortunately, that's something that doesn't work. For a long time I sent PMs to users to improve the quality of their posts, warning them of the consequences, I even wrote posts directly to other users in their responses. But in 99% of cases it didn't help and they continued writing LQP posts. The most curious thing about these cases is that these users know that they are not doing things right, but they still continue with their behavior, as if no one was going to do anything, or we didn't notice. We must use the tools available on the forum to avoid that type of "content". Affected users can always return to a "normal" account using the available mechanisms, they just need the will to do it right.

Just like me, I also tend to experience a lot of failure in providing education to members who continuously make Spammer type posts, even though previously I had also given direct warnings through post replies or quotes.
We can only think positively because we are in a friendly forum and this is one of the best forms for us as members who have broad insight to provide education to those who always make Low Quality Posts.

But if the member continuously makes mistakes by making Spam posts, then I used to (when I was a Modz) immediately delete the posts or move them to the "Quarantine and Test Area" sub-forum.
Why did I move the Spam post?
Due to the fear that the post's authenticity could still be tested if an appeal is filed, this is also my policy between deleting the post and moving the post.

Personally I had always remained away from meme coins because I think they are a joke. But recent performance of some of the meme coins got me thinking.
Why is there such a big uptrend in these meme coin prices ?

The cryptocurrency market is now saturated (in the sense that there are many platforms that are very compatible with sharing chains and many applications that are easy and affordable for everyone in the cryptocurrency space), so those who have a lot of funds definitely just want to play for fun but make money .

Maybe it could be said like this, they already have Bitcoin, they already have Ethereum, they already have DOGE and finally those who have large funds create new Meme coins so that they increase many times over and generate more profits.
Just look now at the PEPE coin which has risen very quickly in just a few days and this PEPE coin was created just for entertainment only.

Is any of these coins a good investment opportunity. If yes, why do you feel so ?

For the PEPE coin, I'm not sure whether it's a good coin or not, but I tend to like the DOGE and SHIBA coins more because:
-DOGE is the first Meme coin that is widely traded in all markets and is the first Meme coin to have a very large market cap.
-SHIBA with the Doge principle, this Killer coin is a coin created by the Anonymous team and of course this SHIBA coin also has many features that I like such as BONE, LEASH , SHIBA Magazine etc.

Gambling is not based on gender, but I will say gambling is not for all, because of the age factor...

Your statement is completely the same as mine because gender doesn't matter, I see a lot of women gambling in live casinos in Las Vegas, which proves that gender is not an issue in gambling.
But regarding the age issue, there must be a limit because this limit is what determines whether you can gamble or not. Some countries limit gambling to those above 18 years and some to more than 21 years.

The concept is limited because age may be from a period of work, because if you are over 18 years old you are an adult and have worked to be able to earn money and the money is for gambling, so the gambler's assets are not from other people but are from the results of his work.

Doe in most part of the world gambling is illegal, and if one is found involving or partaking in gambling there are severe consequences and punishment. But if you are above 18yrs and you find passion in gambling, it is not bad.

However, it is still prohibited for gamblers over the age of 18 if they live in a country that prohibits gambling and it is possible that if they are forced to gamble, they will be given heavy penalties and fines.
For example, in my country gambling is prohibited and "if You are Caught Gambling" you will be punished according to the rules that apply in our country, even if you are over 18 years old or even more than 21 years old, gambling is still prohibited.

Apakah ini menurut om yg membuat kalau semua member bisa kena pangkas menjadi 0 karma oleh Admin?
Maksud saya , ketidak tahuan kita yg mengirim karma kepada siapapun tanpa di ketahui aliran karmanya bisa menjadi counter untuk  member mendapatkan teguran dari Admin sehingga di minuskan karmanya menjadi 0 seperti saya.

Dengan banyaknya user altcoinstalks, asumsi saya, admin belum tentu juga sering melakukan pemeriksaan terhadap log karma. Kecuali jika ada kasus yang mencuat semisal ada yang mengajukan banding karena karma yang diperolehnya berkurang atau bahkan menjadi minus secara masif sementara user tersebut tidak merasa membuat kesalahan yang memang disadarinya.

Ok om siap thank atas sarannya , saya juga sudah memberikan banding ke admin dan admin sudah memberikan utas terbaru yg memabahas kasus saya antara Admin , Judge , Senator dan Bounty Manajer perihal minus karma saya yg banyak dan masih ada ampunan oleh admin karena saya tidak di banned di forum altcoinstalks.

AADD, Ada Apa Dengan Damsix?? Ketahuan nuyul?

Bukan nuyul om, lebih tepatnya ke pengiriman gas transaksi antar wallet.
Padahal itu semua saya sudah jelaskan kalau akun itu bukanlah akun saya tapi itu akun istri , ibu , paman dan dua keponakan.
Bukti yg kuatnya adalah dari KYC Verified yg sudah tertera disetiap lencana Tapi admin sekarang sudah menghapusnya. Juga ,saya ajarkan semua keluarga saya dari 2018 sampai bisa di forum hadir terus .
Padahal yg namanya mengajarkan itu sulit , apalagi mengajak keluarga untuk bisa memahami cryptocurrency tapi yg namanya di forum orang atau rumah orang , ya terserah admin karena admin yg memiliki forumnya. Orang numpang bisa apa, kalau dikata om dulu-dulu itu kepada saya, xixixi

Btw tadinya ane mulai curiga ini forum udah ga sesantai dulu,

Oh yah,masa iyah? xixixi
Banyak pepatah mengatakan diantaranya , ada gula ada semut , dimana ada keramaian disitu ada kericuhan , eh

Yang dirasakan om mungkin sama dengan yg lainnya tapi apa mau dikata, yg namanya kita nempel ke forum orang lain pasti hasilnya kita manut saja dengan kebijakan yg ada.

I went for 7 as I do not play in casinos . please note this pool includes off line or on line casinos

My position now is the same as yours because I also chose number 7.
If I had to choose to gamble, I would definitely go to Sportbet because I also often play sports like Volleyball.

Betting on sports you watch is very important and have a way of mitigating the risk involved in gambling.

You could say yes, you could also say no because I don't gamble at all and it's just my assumption that when I gamble, I should watch the sports match that is being bet on.
But sometimes even big teams that have a lot of experience will definitely have results that are not satisfactory with our choices, for example a big football team with a temporary 3rd place ranking, loses to a bottom football team that will be relegated.

When you bet on sports you know you can easily identify games that are too risky and then avoid such games totally. Following odds can be misleading because even teams with small odds can still not win games.

But this position will also be difficult to choose when we choose a match when the European Champions League takes place in the last 8 with a team that is so solid and has big names.
At least you think it's true that you can minimize losses when gambling on choosing a team in sports, but there are many sayings that "The Ball is Round", all football games can change at any time and can be won by any team when competing.

Recently I've seen the appearance of many new low-quality topics:
+ Include only 1-2 simple sentences.
+ Do not provide any useful information.
+ Do not have any personal opinions.

I often see these 3 points in various low quality threads and this is what makes us not need to reply and just let it be.
I'd rather avoid the thread than reply to it because it would be controversial if I insisted on replying.

Maybe it's better after that I will give a PM to the member so that he can improve the quality of his post and make it more useful in creating threads.
