In terms of Admin staff and writing staff, we don't do anything to encourage people to gamble. We answer mathematical questions truthfully and to the best of our ability. My general gambling advice is, "Don't gamble on -EV games." They buried MDawg's thread (partially at your urging) because we don't want to give anyone the impression that systems or methods that defy the math have a long-term expectation of profit.
In short, we're doing as little to actually encourage people to gamble as a gambling site can do.
For my part, I don't claim it's legal in a state where it isn't...etc.
With all of that, if someone still wants to gamble, please use one of these sites and thank you.
Excuse me but YOURS is not exactly an unbiased opinion.
First, no one said anything about Legal or illegal. Of course it is legal.
Also no one is accusing you or anyone that choses to work for (even for free) that forum and company of encouraging people to gamble. So let's get THAT out of the way.
But forums started by, owned and operated by, respected advantage players such as Shackleford, Wong, Norm and that still bear these peoples name and likeness (even in charature form), should not have that kind of association,
in my opinion. It tarnishes the person's name in my opinion. To me there is a line as advantage players. Are you with us....or are you with "them".
Again, I want to be clear, Norm never did that and I respect that.
