That's simultaneously; an admission that what they are providing is toxic and a cover against any responsibility for that.
This whole idea of 'personal responsibility' has been force-fed to the public by people who trade in anti-social and poisonous goods. It's appealing as an idea because it allows you to one-shot the argument of someone who's life has been ruined.

For example: shutup, losers.

Maybe behind the asterisks is "well-meaning." Take it as you will. If someone is offended by being called dumb, then all hope is lost.

No. People do things because they want to do them, and they don't things because they don't want to. It's truly that simple.

Sure...if you're twelve.

This is not the way to complain about Somer.

Eve is a niche game. Please stop trying to make it mainstream, nerfing all of its uniqueness.

If people want to be ******** in a video game (such as playing Somer with large sums all day every day), we should let them, and point fingers and laugh.

That's how people learn lessons. Maybe then they will learn something and act better in the real world.

You don't like gambling? Then don't gamble and leave people alone to make their own ******* decisions rather than nerfing everything to "perfection."

why did you bold and underline the word holiday?

I play 100mil a day. Two days ago, I won 100mil back. Yesterday, I lost the 100mil. All of it. Today, I won 124mil back. You win some, you lose some, but at the end of the day, it is all about personal responsibility and self-control. If you're playing with more than you can afford to lose, you have a problem. And it's your problem, and nobody else's.

Also... please specify which law is being broken and which country it applies to.

Australia

On 28 June 2001 the Australian Government passed the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (IGA). The government said that the IGA was important to protect Australians from the harmful effects of gambling.

The IGA targets the providers of interactive gambling services. The IGA makes it an offence to provide an interactive gambling service to a customer physically present in Australia, but it is not an offence for Australian residents to play poker or casino games online. In stark contrast to the USA, sports betting online is also completely legal in Australia, with many state government licensed sportsbooks in operation, such as Centrebet, Sportingbet & Betfair.

Well as you are Australian

Please don't quote mine a Wiki page at me without actually reading the Act, and its subsequent reviews and corresponding research, in full, and establishing a complete understanding of the Act, or heed this, I will write an epic wall of text outlining every single point that you think might apply to this, and then explain exactly why it doesn't.

I know the Act quite well, I was one of its protesters. I can write that wall of text without even looking up all the research I already have bookmarked, but in short, this Act's problem, just like with every other Act of this nature, is that it cannot be enforced. The other big point is that it only, specifically applies to gambling with real money, for real prizes. While one might argue that buying a GTC with real money then using the isk to gamble is exactly the same thing, this is actually the point where the Act cannot be enforced, because you're not actually using real money for the act of gambling itself, and you are not winning prizes that can be exchanged for real money in any way.

Actually I too read that review when it was released. I believe it actually states that its problem is that it cannot be enforced against overseas sites.

That however does not make those sites any less illegal now does it?

That's pretty deep.

C. Children
(1) Responsibility for Account

Minor children may not establish an Account without the consent of a parent or guardian. If the user of EVE is a minor, a parent or guardian must complete the registration process to establish an Account, in which case the parent or guardian takes full responsibility for all obligations under the EULA and for all activities of the child using the Account. If you are a parent or guardian, you may permit one child to use the Account instead of you (in which case you may not use that Account).

If you establish an Account, you represent that you are an adult thirteen (13) years of age or older and are either accepting the EULA on behalf of yourself or on behalf of your child, in which latter case you agree to the EULA with regard to your child and represent that you are also personally bound by the EULA.

The first time I heard about Somer I knew it would get eve in trouble via international gamblings laws. You guys call troll and laugh, but some countries are dead serious when it comes to gambling.

I say CCP ask Somer to close up shop before lawsuits happen, and parts of the world ban the game.

Its funny how the thread went from ban gambling to ban somer...

If you want to argue that gambling is bad, fine, but that must include all forms a gambling including not only Somer, but Evebet, Evepoker etc any kind of lottery, whether it be on a website, forum, alliance only lotteries and in game lotteries.

Basically anything involving consideration, chance and prize would be considered gambling.
