Hello, I'm getting angry just by reading about your endeavors....

Well, let me share what I have been working on regarding this subject. Please consider this a sort of intro for the community since this actual topic is not that common.


Skin gambling involves using virtual in-game items, known as "skins," as a form of currency for betting on professional esports matches or games of chance. These skins are typically cosmetic items that alter the appearance of characters or weapons without affecting gameplay. The practice gained prominence within the Counter-Strike community but has extended to other games like Electronic Arts' FIFA series.

How Skin Gambling Works:

Acquisition of Skins: Players obtain skins through gameplay achievements, in-game purchases, or by opening loot boxes, which are virtual containers offering random rewards.

Third-Party Platforms: While game developers like Valve provide official marketplaces for trading skins, third-party websites have emerged, enabling players to use their skins for gambling purposes. These platforms often operate outside the game's official ecosystem.


Gambling Mechanisms:

On these third-party sites, users can wager their skins on various games of chance, such as roulette, coin flips, or betting on the outcomes of professional esports matches. The value of the skins wagered determines the potential returns.


Example:

"Case Battles" Here's how the Case Battles work:

Case Selection: Players choose from a variety of virtual cases, each containing a set of potential skins with varying rarities and values.

Battle Initiation: Multiple players purchase the same case and enter a battle. Each participant opens their case simultaneously.

Outcome Determination: The player who unboxes the most valuable skin wins the combined value of all skins revealed during that battle.

This competitive format adds an extra layer of excitement, as participants not only rely on chance but also compete directly against others for higher stakes.


Legal and Ethical Considerations

Underage Gambling: The accessibility of these platforms to minors has sparked debates about the potential for underage gambling.

Regulatory Oversight: Many skin gambling sites operate in legal gray areas, lacking proper regulation and consumer protections.

Addiction Risks: The gambling-like mechanics can lead to addictive behaviors, especially among younger audiences.

In response, game developers and regulatory bodies have taken steps to curb unauthorized gambling activities associated with virtual items.


I have encountered a number of websites, such as chicken.gg, and I completely understand your annoyance because offering skinroulettes or skinslots is unquestionably gambling and should be handled as such.


Though as usual, "grey market" always overtakes current regulations, regulatory bodies, and also the whole ecosystem is predestined to respond retroactively, I reckon.

I truly hope you will find a way to fight back. Speaking of which, the other thread about banks and merchants will hopefully get some clues. I imagine this must feel like a trap. Well, it is kind of a trap; that's the point of this whole masking, I guess.

I really wish I could help you somehow. Are you in touch with some carecenters perhaps? Can anyone help you manage the stress, or just be there for you?

Yeah, I get why this topic is frustrating. I’ve seen a lot of people get pulled into gambling-type systems with skins, thinking it’s just for fun, but it gets out of hand real quick. Personally, I stopped using skin roulette sites after realizing how unpredictable and sketchy they can be. I’d rather know exactly what I’m getting instead of relying on luck or risking valuable items.

Okay, what does that mean, for example? What sites do you use in this direction where you can predict more what you will get?

Of course, I agree that even this form of gambling can get players addicted. Some will say that it can be fun because they are playing for some skins in the game, but they also have value and can basically be monetized, which is the same as gambling, just in a slightly different form.

Are you also used to playing this kind of roulette often?
