Midtime Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 Some people have more resistance against gambling than others do. I suppose this game could be bad for some people, especially the younger Neopets players... but in itself, it's a game, and can't do any real harm.

naalaro Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 see carlisted, that is now exactly my point... Peeps hear you really had a good day and won good "money" They dont hear how hard/easy it was, how much you had to put in, how much you lost, how long it took. Some people will jsut see: "oh yeah, easy big money" Like Tom said, lucky its jsut "playmoney", bad thing is, people do the same thing in the real world. The principle of gambling remains the same everywhere... No "casino" will ever loose in the long run.... you get paid out 17K points, 1000 of us have to "pay" for it :) (dont jump on my head, i also enjoy giving a few points away on the slots :P ) Indeed so, i agree with you on this. Im not so aggrieved as to there being a blatant casino style game on neopets, then i am about people promoting it through declarations of winning. Its a delusion that will not see any long term benefits. But as many have said, its a game i suppose, that doesnt really do much harm, and if i try to think about it from an educational standpoint, it isnt too bad. But then again, that too perhaps, is another delusion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadaw the Rampage Posted June 2, 2009 Share Posted June 2, 2009 I know many Neopians who are happy to see that the slots are back. They had 2 slots machines on the site before they were taken down because people were cheating. It took about a year to see 1 back on the site. As for me, I'm not addicted to the game. I will play from time to time to kill the boredom, and with a set limit of say, 20k to gamble. The first very high jackpot (of 81 Millions NP) was won by a charter member. the brucy b slots and the black pawkeet slots. both are favorates of mine and admittedly i was dismayed when they were removed, ironically im one of the luckyest people when it comes to slots. do i not agree that its low to introduce it to neopets... thats a grey line as no ones complained about the scorchy slots which doesnt give you much of anything really at all maybe 15 np back on your bet of five np. heres how i feel about it. they will either get rid of it later on anyways like they did last time, or they'll find a way to improove the odds plus if you ever had the guts to play the max bet over 100 times you'd find out you cant play it more then 100 times in a row daily ^.^ so its not like they didnt add a cap to keep people from spending all there np in one sitting.

Inquisitive Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 This game was on Neopets before. They removed it due to cheaters abusing it. Now, it reopened with a max limit. Usually, you get more profit (last time). But, TNT has changed the rates and the payouts are not so good anymore. You need over 100k to fully maximize the game's potential in eanrning NPs. Btw Rookie, the limit now is 250 NOT 100. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
