Sweden Posted December 17, 2022 #51 Posted December 17, 2022 In my honest opinion, I actually feel like they're feeding this drake guy more money than they're actually feeding us. It's almost as if they're cutting out the budget for Monthly, Weekly, etc just to have drake as a mascot. Might also explain why I got 50% less in weekly this week compared to last week, despite me wagering the same exact amount. Very dissapointing to say the least.

I mean, here we have people rioting over not being "rewarded for their gambling contributions" as if their choice to play in the hopes of trying to win big is equivalent somehow to doing volunteer work/community service and that they should be rewarded for spending money on an activity that they chose to participate in. Something that maybe now isn't as fun as it used to be because of where they've ended up. If I could tell those people something it would be purely out of a genuine concern for their well-being where I'd say to them: Look, I know it's tough, Time's are rough, but you all gotta realize what this is doing to you and Just accept that for some of you, ya'll could've made better choices back then but there's nothing stopping you from starting to make better decisions now, because you know what? You have to realize that you'll only continue to feel like the victim if you decide that you're going to let it control you and consume you; just look at what this is turning you all into. I'm sure no one here likes feeling this way, angry, upset, disgruntled, unappreciated, and what not...but deep down you know the only reason that you feel so darn entitled to getting drops or bonuses is because you desperately need it and can't help but want it so badly it makes you mad but yet it's for reasons that you only have yourself to blame for. So please don't keep doing this yourself, you gotta stop letting yourself believe you're a victim here and ask yourself, how did you get here? is it really Stake's fault you lost your money chasing after a dream or is it yours? I'm not here to judge nobody and I'm only saying this because I hate seeing what some of you all are becoming and if you go on continuing to blame someone else or something else, it's only going to get worse and if no one else cares enough to see how it's changed you or know about it because you'd rather hide it from them, then let me be that somebody who reminds you that you deserve better than this. Don't let these games take over your life... No one will judge you for trying to get out of your own mess so if gambling isn't fun anymore, if you're not in control, don't be shy, no one will look down on your for getting help, that's why it's there..... http://www.gamblingaware.com/ I hope you feel better and stop letting yourself be so upset, I mean...c'mon, Drake set up a f*ken a private fireworks show ya'll...how many of you have that sh*t in your backyard or on your stream? dafuuuuqq ... AND you know you have relatives somewhere that be trying to see them fireworks at Disneyland...shoot ... gdamn mother lovin fireworks yo... I agree with the sentiment of your post other than "handouts" and "free drops". Everything comes at a cost here and stake have been steadily raising the cost of entry while reducing the benefits, for the past year or more. Players are getting less back than they used to which is pure greed on the part of stake. I wish there was a mass event or a tide change with gambling, because it is an incredibly toxic addiction - one which stake encourages in everything that they do. If there was such a thing as karma, then Eddie and his ilk would pay the price for the damage that they've done.
Jarjarsim Posted December 17, 2022 #55 Posted December 17, 2022 Totally agree. In 3 drake streams it was the worst for the players. Add the fact that it's christmas it's a shame

Killabee22 Posted December 17, 2022 #58 Posted December 17, 2022 Good stream just only people with money get money and hardly anything for people that need it and watch for that reason

You made a great point that made me realize I didn't word what was said in the way that maybe I had intended. But otherwise to your point, I think the online gambling industry is still relatively new and has only more recently become sort of "main stream" so we've yet to see the equivalent of what would be a long history of brands that come and go, for lack of better word. That's just to suggest, more or less, that it feels like some people simply haven't had the experience or awareness to handle their dissatisfaction in a more constructive way, or with their feelings for that matter, and maybe because of how subtlety seductive gambling can be, it's a lot like being in a first-time relationship that might be moving towards becoming an unhealthy and toxic relationship and where it might be hard to even begin to think of letting go or moving on for one's own sake rather than continuing to hold on to what's more familiar and comfortable at the price of a growing resentment.

billcolton Posted December 17, 2022 #62 Posted December 17, 2022 they will cut our weeklys/monthlys soon dont worrys we will be even more fucked
sparpanda Posted December 17, 2022 #64 Posted December 17, 2022 For you who don't understand why people are complaining: Imagine being told there was going to be a stream with $2M in prices that you should not miss and its at 3AM. You put your alarm basically in the middle of the night to wake up to this thing, which does not even start at 3AM. About an hour later, you have gotten $20 is bonus drops, which you were promised anyway because of the Xmas days event, and nothing more. You missed the $1.4M drop because you only wagered $90k... Of course people will be upset...
BGjack1 Posted December 18, 2022 #66 Posted December 18, 2022 I had a feeling that it would be a shameless event with some fuckery behind it so i am glad i missed it and didn't put a alarm for 3-4am in the morning for this.

I mean, here we have people rioting over not being "rewarded for their gambling contributions" as if their choice to play in the hopes of trying to win big is equivalent somehow to doing volunteer work/community service and that they should be rewarded for spending money on an activity that they chose to participate in. Something that maybe now isn't as fun as it used to be because of where they've ended up. Remember that it's your choice to be here and the rewards or bonuses should be thought of as perks to thank you for your choice to play here rather than playing and spending your hard earned money elsewhere. It's a business and we are customers, if you find yourself feeling less than satisfied with how you feel you're being treated as a customer then the appropriate thing to do would be to not give them your patronage or business and go elsewhere. That would speak more loudly to the business in making them aware of any potentially necessary change rather than, for whatever reason you might have, force yourself to stay here only to be upset by every little thing that doesn't go the way you'd expect or cause you to lose all sense of gratitude for anything and everything. Everyone deserves to be happy and enjoy themselves while playing at an online casino but that doesn't mean selfishly having each and every one of your demands be met to do so, you have to realize you're in control of your emotions and your thoughts and if you continue convincing yourself that they're out to get you or are acting out of greed, regardless if that may be true or not, being right doesn't help make you feel better, does it? The effects of prolonged gambling and the emotional strain it can lead to can really change a person and make it increasingly difficult to recognize when there might be an unhealthy habit or addiction; so if it's affecting you in such a way that it also changes who you are, please just try to recognize it or at least, don't take it so lightly just because you're around others who accept that about you, as I'm sure others would agree, we would all still want what would be better for you. No one will judge you for trying to get out of your own mess so if gambling isn't fun anymore, if you're not in control, don't be shy, no one will look down on your for getting help, that's why it's there..... http://www.gamblingaware.com/ I hope those affected will feel better and stop letting themselves be so upset by one thing only to lead them into hating another thing, such as the stream because, I mean...c'mon! Drake set up a f*ken a private fireworks show ya'll...how many of you have that sh*t in your backyard or on your stream? dafuuuuqq ... AND you know you have relatives somewhere that be trying to see them fireworks at Disneyland...shoot ... gdamn mother private fireworks show yo... Nice

Of course people will be upset... There was no Drake's Special Stream bonus drops to begin with. That 20$ drops were part of their daily 7x Christmas drops 🤣 . So the only unique one was the coupon link. Which I think will not be claimed by top 10k players as if those highrollers who are in top ranks will need few hundred bux if They're betting millions lol. Most of them won't know the coupon exists as well. 14 hours ago, billcolton said: they will cut our weeklys/monthlys soon dont worrys we will be even more fucked This is what I'm afraid of. These recent months , our Monthly bonuses became lower. Can't even ask the Support of how do they calculate it.

I'm just surprised no one has said a word about it guess everyone was star-struck or just refreshing like crazy for the codes. Like I said in the video I won't stop gambling I've known this since earlier than 2016. I've been betting on Plinko before prime dice or stake even was out. And don't plan on stopping but for those of you that think it's a way of making money just look at this and do your own conclusions. In my eyes, the only two sides that can be on profit are one - the owner and two - people who are working with him to get people on the platform. Edit* Grammar what you see here is a LAG from Stake's end. The around 10 bet is just not showing on stream. If you put in the full video you would have seen for yourself, the bet before this one you will see Drake does play around the 10 (see pictures i uploaded). After winning the 2.4mil Drake hits Rebet, so the same bet as before and winning again 2.4mil. If you trying to frame a stream do a better job or show the full story...
