Online Sports Gambling with BF Cash.

[redsforlife]

I was thinking about this, because the other forum I frequent, Sherdog, does this. It's very  popular, and I've found it fun. It's risk free, because it's fake cash to buy sigs, avatar, or other stuff. We would just need someone to set up the system to do it, and just check some real gambling site for odds of games.

So, would anyone here be interested in betting BF Cash on sporting events? Let us know with your vote.

I rather just do it with my actual sports betting roll :p.

Maybe?  Not sure really.

That sounds good to me. But not so good for the younger members.

It's a risk free version of gambling, so no harm will be done. We'll have to make other ways to earn BF Cash too, so once your out, you don't remain out forever. Maybe every 10 posts you get 5, maybe even less BF Cash. The only hard part is this is way too complicated for someone to do manually. We'll have to have a program to do it.

I'd much rather see BF Cash thing than the respect icon. I think this would be more fun.

Do you remember Neo-pets? It was all over the news that it encourages youngsters to learn to gamble at a young age. It doesn't matter if it's 'risk free', you could argue that watching R rated movies are risk free since you're not killing anyone brutally, you're just watching it, it's not real etc

I guess that's true. There aren't any problems with the other forum that uses it. That being said, the average age on that forum is much older than here. They still have some teenagers that are active. We could make an age restriction, but it would be hard to prove if someone's lying or not.

It will definatly create some form of gamling tendencies which CAN have negative effects on certain people and lead to (negative) gambling behavior on older ages. However, risk free gambling can teach them something aswell :p. But im sure there are studies on this subject .

Ta hell with youngsters, this place is already being catered too much for them. Let's gamble!

Sounds great to me  It's nice to have something to make the sports more interesting, especially if it's risk free. Still hoping my acca will come in @ like 120/1 (Lyon, Man C, Bayern to win league's, and Vills to be relegated) apart from this I have no reason to watch a lot of the matches, so this would be a great reason

Lyon fat chance :p. The power of money will dominate.
