Well done, now learn to read and realise that there is not a specific limit that has been stated. As in no numbers. It even says that in your opening post.Quote:

i personally as the top sino owner would love to return to smaller casino's in habbo ... would make casino's what they once used to be ... now the big casinos with 20-30booth casino's are full of LMS's which ruins people lives etc but i just hope it isn't a ridiculous low number or that's just ******ed, seeming as the dicemaster was once a habbo club item and probably have a few hundred thousand ... so meaning the dices got to go somewhere right? xD
I'm all for the return of small casinos as well. Hopefully more creativity can be displayed now that the filthy rich habbos can't show off their huge bulks of supers. :P
I think this would ultimately be a positive move. It is common knowledge, with staff also, that arcades and casinos are inextricably linked with the black market scene on Habbo. Habbo loses a lot of money because people buy gold bars from some of the most affluent users rather than using an official means to obtain credits. This is nothing new - but the problem is manifesting itself more and more. It is now more common than it ever has been, and that is coming from someone who has played Habbo for approximately ten years.
Although I only log in a few times a week now, if that, getting rid of these modern casinos which are making some users thousands of pounds and consequently losing Sulake tens of thousands of pounds will make Habbo a nicer place to be. A lot of the people won't quit in my opinion, it's all pretty baseless. Let us not forget the sort of people who use casinos are either striving to be known (rich) or making money irl - the first of these are not going to quit and the second are the profile of people who are eating into Sulake's profit margins.
However, betting is a big part of the game for a lot of people so what I would love to see is an official way to bet. For example, you go to a room on Habbo and double click a machine. A box pops up on your screen where you can enter your furni and effectively gamble it. If you win then you are automatically given two of the furni you bet, if you lose you lose the one item you put in. This would work, keep people happy, help get rid of the black market (of course people could use the black market to use these fabricated machines) and also eradicate the issue of scamming. It could even be weighed in the machine's favour: only pays out 40% of the time, or something - would still be a better system and make sense for Sulake to look into.
Main issue is that it would mean Sulake is endorsing gambling. Combine that with the fact that it is aimed at people who aren't legal to bet in their respective countries (on .com anyway) then we could be looking at another channel four-esque scandal hitting the hotel. However, I'd still be in favour as it would go a long way to diminishing the current arcades that are now synonymous with scamming, the black market, hacking and other ungodly goings on.
This will seriously screw up the economy.Quote:

It's a bad business move because it would force users off the hotel who would otherwise buy coins. Although id love to see smaller old school casinos backQuote:

But I could be wrong it might ruin everything. What happened to the DK economy when gambling was removed?
