So no candy either? And is that ‘real-world currency’ or ‘thing of value’ or ‘real-world currency’ or ‘real-world thing of value’. Otherwise you could still pay out in silks, cars and genitals. *grins* Well, as long as no one starts to argue that those virtual goods have a real-world value.

I do believe that SL has plenty of content to keep some people playing the ‘game’. Not all of SL is gambling.

Of course it also says somewhere in there that they can change any of the rules at any time.

Whatever…

Over the years there have been tales of people spending all the money entrusted to them by groups, of machines that vanish when they are due to payout, of machines which never payout and offer a 100% return to their operators.

I am assuming that it is still possible to run a casino if it pays out in tokens or items which are assessed as having no real value, but whether anyone will do that — and whether anyone will play such a game if it is running — I don’t know. In the UK there are attractions around piers and in funfairs which can be played by children because they pay out in sweets or tokens… I know little about US law, but I am assuming that when they specify that it is not ok to pay out on games of chance, in Lindens or currency, this is what they mean.

What kind of casino operator can operate a “virtual” casino without any casino games? When are they going to change that? They are still advertising to new “players” a profession which is totally illegitmate based on their own TOS.

Whatever they do or don’t do with enforcement going forward, I’ve pulled the TD Dice Cube from my store and the only place it was still being sold on the web too (Onrez formerly SL Boutique). R.I.P.
