Just because you and I are bright enough, or otherwise mentally well and not afflicted is all well and good for us but the exploitation is very evident!I played sunday league football today.
Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.
I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.
We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!

Bluehoop - lets ban all advertising on alcohol then as some people become dependent...in fact lets ban advertising on cars that can go fast because people crash. In fact let's ban advertising on everything as there is always some fat slob that eats too much etc.....!!
People have a choice to do what they want. The fact that some are so weak they lose control doesn't mean the whole world should compensate for them.
Anyway - it's a good deal for anyone without a ST, but last years similar promotion didn't exactly drag the masses in....

Silvercue I just disagree with you on this matter, I hope thats ok?
I am actually financially well off.
However I can see how internet gambling can become addictive and I hate the way banks try and offer people loans etc. Yes we all have choices however they shouldn't keep trying to ram bad habits through advertising etc. I have seen some good men become totally bankrupt, this ruins familys etc. If I want a loan i'll bloody well go to a bank and get one. Internet gambling is very dangerous. Some people are weak but I ask you do you think these weak people should require help in ruining there life's?I played sunday league football today.

I have no problem with anyone disagreeing with me, we have different opinions on this subject.
I have a problem with an implication that I am unwilling, or incapable, or applying intelligent thought to my posts.
