Betting limits

[lancashire666]

Has there been a cap on the amount that can be bet on vbookie event?

 

[nightprowler10]

No its something we've just implemented with the cap being 50000.

 

[lancashire666]

by why so? feels a little unfair considering ive made quite a lot of my cash thorugh good betting to not be able to use it in there. 50k is quite low, i can understand agains 10 million bets, but 50k is low

50k is very low. I think most members could gain that much simply by using a few chips in roulette. This might prevent a few members from possibly winning large amounts, but it also prevents them from losing very much. The rich will remain rich, while the poorer might get richer to a certain extent, but they won't be able to reach a significant amount of vcash, because they're limited in a way that some of us weren't when we started. I still remember the event where Tarzan lost close to 15 million of his vcash (that was pretty much all he had) in what he thought was a safe bet. I think a limit of somewhere between 15-25 million would work better.

50,000 is very low in my opinion.

I think at least 1,000,000 would be sufficient.

We're also planning on limiting the amount you can bet in the casino.
Sorry for not putting up an announcement about this but we're still making changes

Why do you need the caps? Everything is going fine the way it is.

If your making a cap make it 5mil.

 

[barmyarmy]

The first thing we were doing was writing the modification to make the cap possible. Next step will be to decide definitely on a level.

5 million is still a huge bet, there have been some issues with the very large bets, thus the cap is going to be introduced. I think it's something that has been on the mind of the staff (not the fake staff ) for a while.

We will be on strike again if your not careful. Just for the record that was Sean's idea, please don't fire me

Great memories of the last time we striked. My user title being hijacked by Matt, the concessions made by the admins and then the cave in Can we get our dollar signs back, I felt gangsta

The last time you were on strike? Do you mean that 30min period

Probably wouldn't have needed a cap if people weren't employing certain tactics on the roulette wheel. Let's put it this way, it's not cheating, but if you get caught playing the system like that in a real casino you are unlikely to be using your legs as you exit the casino

It was actually an hour and it would have lasted longer but my mum needed the computer

I'm sure it will become part of Planetcricket history, perhaps in 10 years people will be calling it the hour of discontent.
