As do I.
So, if this add-on was betting with real money, how would this work? So then, we would have to pay Mental to get some kind of "betting points"? Plus, if this add-on was real money how much people would actually bet on every single game...
So it's better off just being a game with no money involved.
1- Charge money to your account with Paypal or just use Paypal directly.
2- A % of the bets goes to Mental for providing a space for the betting.
3- How much people bet is controlled by themselves, although there could be a Min and Max amount of money that could be placed on a bet.(Don't know how the plug-in works.)
PD: If there is no money involved on THIS particular plugin, then the restriction to minors should not apply.
Surely you have to have some sort of license to host gambling though?
It's amazing how you can find anything on the internet!

You are right, I come from a place where the legal system is shit. I do not have an idea of how it works in the UK nor US.
If you read carefully, I never mentioned restricting from the website, I said restricting from bidding/betting.
Yea, and it's amazing how i can pull this out of the very first paragraph of your own link:
"The site owner must not only understand how casinos work and how to play, but also understand international gambling and financial regulations. Both the gambler and site owner are advised to verify local, state and federal laws prior to participating in any type of online gambling.".
Like i said, you have NO IDEA how much work actually goes into a website/system like that, and the legal implications it can/does/will have.

Ahuh, and how are you going to restrict anything, when people type their "age" into a little box in their profile? This is an online (MMORPG) forum, not a gambling website.
Like i am now mentioning for the THIRD TIME, the legal side of things is half the total work, yet you are completely ignoring it.

Yes, this thread has gone way offtopic, purely because of you.
This suggestion has NOTHING to do with real money, that was clearly outlined on the first page. Yet you still continue to bombard us with absolute bullshit about turning RZ into a gambling website.
Why do you put words in my mouth that I never said? The betting plugin would form part of the sports section only...
I sincerely though that the betting plugin was intended to be used with real money.
I accept that my ignorance might have caused this thread to go offtopic and thus, this is my last post in here.![]()

Real money or fake money isn't important, the only important thing is to see whether this betting addon attracts people to the sport section.
