@Koochi-QDon't get upset if it gets banned by gaming regulatory boards. It's also not that good for business. While casinos might do well with those who gamble, they do horribly with those who don't gamble. Toss in that the majority of those who try gambling have a negative experience with gambling, those customers often do not return (ever). So you're banking on the few who do have a positive outcome, outspending the majority. It's really not that great of a business model. If you don't believe me, you should do some research on the gambling industry in America, it's in serious trouble right now and has been for a while because it is a scam.

@DarthValtrex Lolz why would I get upset about it. I dont buy skins nor will I ever do so likely :P

You’re right, it’s marketed for all, but only a select few actually ‘fall victim’ for it BUT those suckers buy alot of it.

Just like in the casino. Some see a slotmachine and think ‘wth, let’s go’. Spin one time and are done. Others spend their entire ‘budget’ on that thing.

I know it’s a worthless model but it’s been used since I have no idea when. It likely dates back to roman period. It’s not gonna go away soon. People love exploiting the vulnerable so they rather bank on those heavy hitters than low/medium bigger masses.
