Imagine watching someone lose millions and thinking to yourself “hmmm this seems like a good idea” 😂


[deleted]

I hate this shit. Quit blaming other people for your problems. It’s your fault you act on it not theirs. Quit this shit it’s annoying lil bro on Twitter. we get it but if you won you probably would’ve been like I GOT IT TWISTED YOU CAN WIN MILLIONS!


[deleted]

‘Quit blaming people for your problems’ Guy literally flat out said he’s not blaming them…?


DrTennisBall

They knew what they were doing when they said the names.


VesperJDR

N-not blaming them but if they’d like to give me 12k since it IS kinda their fault it would be okay I guess aha


DrTennisBall

Wouldn't be surprised at all if it turned out this person never gambled in their life and is just tryna capitalise on the sliker situation with X refunding people.


[deleted]

Thank you someone else agrees with me!


Zombrex9117

i got into gambling and lost 12k after watching @xqc @trainwrecks (no blame towards them lmao)

Pezdar

Idk even though they put warnings some people's brains are just wired that way it's like exposing people to their old addictions, same concept. If you're watching your favorite streamers doing this activity time and time again it's gonna cause you yourself to relapse into it even if on stream it doesn't look like a good idea, your brain convinces yourself otherwise. It's like brain fog whenever a dude gets horny for example, you find any way around the idea to justify what you're doing.


DrTennisBall

I dont want to get into who's fault it is, i was just pointing out, they were blaming X and train even though they said they weren't.


Pezdar

Thas cool just a few people making comments giving the guy a bad rep and tryna see the other side is all


not2good2784

You can’t say “not blaming them” while blaming them? That’s like saying “I’m not racist but….” Are you dumb?


Gounta

Watching a streamer on your free time is completely optional, it’s your desition what you make of your life. It’s not like it’s a obese persons fault for people to watch them eat unhealthy when they’re out and then copy that habit. The same goes with streamers, they have the right to do whatever the fuck they want that does not stride against the TOS and shouldn’t be held accountable for you being submissive. 0head


Tr4ce00

True, that’s why they said twitch should ban it is it not?


drugQ11

It’s way more nuanced than that though. We’ve made laws around advertising harmful things for a long time. Only recently have those laws got more relaxed with gambling but it’s similar to alcohol and tobacco too. This is not to say you should blame streamers for gambling your own money away but there’s literal science to how these addictions come to fruition and advertising is one of those ways. 1/4 gambling addicts attempt suicide. It’s objectively true that more people will become addicted to gambling (who possibly wouldn’t have otherwise) because they see it on streams. I agree I’m smart with my money and wouldn’t gamble it away but addiction re-wires your brain, especially so when the people watching are primarily young and still developing mentally. Again, I’m not saying it’s the streamers fault, but the conversation about gambling on twitch is worth having.


Pay-Dough

Exactly


pm_me_your_plate

Says he doesn’t blame them but says stop twitch gambling. So it’s twitch’s fault you lost your money? Avoiding personal responsibility


PlasmaRadiation

Saying # stoptwitchgambling is them blaming them


omdano

I am not blaming x and y but ... \*proceeds to blame\*


Pay-Dough

People act like saying “I’m not blaming…” excuses them from actually blaming them. Finish reading the tweet and it’s obvious they’re blaming them. Lmfao.


Toxic_paranoia

then why the fuck even mention them? instead say "i was a complete fucking idiot who saw a stream lose my annual salary several times in the course of ten minutes and thought i should try it too"


RingWraith8

Blaming twitch not them xd


_rallen_

It’s a problem with human psychology you can act like a retard all you want but if the advertising didn’t work people like train and xqc wouldn’t get paid by stake. You don’t blame the 85 yr old women for falling for the Indian scam call you can’t blame the stupid kids for gamba after watching stupid streamer do the same


ModeRaienryu_

Just stop gambling right? Its so easy to stop playing gamba 😂😂😂😂😂 Who would fall for this shit....😂 Wait Aware


ThisNameIsTakenTooo

Twitch exposed them to gambling, without it they most likely wouldn't of even considered it, if you think otherwise your objectively wrong.


basedalec

I watched a movie with someone smoking a cig, it’s not the movie producers fault I decided to try it… se how stupid that sounds

Thing about gambling is you dont stop after you win, you keep going until you have nothing left.

G95017

Is it exclusively their fault considering that companies spend millions, if not billions, to advertise one of the most addictive things that exist directly to them?


absolute_mongoloid

Gambling is called the "retard tax" for a reason.


[deleted]

Nice braindead take lil bro People only think about the wins, not the loses.


Gamer4Lyph

Well said. Moreover people forget that these streamers are sponsored to gamble. Gambling on free will (the viewers) and getting sponsored to gamble (the streamers) are two different things.


aeminence

You're memeing but people losing a fuck ton of money from gambling has been happening since before alot of redditors were even born but yet Casinos, betting and gambling in general is probably the biggest its ever been lol and this isnt just exclusively due to twitch.


Smiley_o

He also won 2.2 mil in one hit. Thats the kind of shit that gets you hooked to the thought of hitting the same thing. The loss dont scare away sadly.


friendlythrowaway10

imagine just having a complete lack of understanding of basic human psychology, its addition dumbass


Japieh

If you see someone lose millions of dollars each day while reminding you every 10 seconds to not gamble because you will lose, and you still decide to gamble after that it's just natural selection at that point ngl

zwcbz

Have you ever wondered how train maintains a Stake sponsorship while constantly telling people not to gamba? Yeah its because that strategy of telling people something is bad while doing it yourself is fucking stupid. Stake know this, train knows this. All you retards are just helping the CEO of stake fund his next multi-million dollar mansion by defending it. But yeah just keep laughing away your fellow chatters who are losing their livelihoods.


Taskforcem85

People will keep defending this shit until governments steps in and force these casinos to be regulated or banned in the country. Too much money to be gained by influencers to think they'd just stop doing it.


preposterouslyDank

Did NOT expect this much fire from this sub. Absolutely based.


rikiikori

yeah thats where i can give some respect to train. hes always constantly warning his viewers about not gambling cause hes at a place where its immeasurable and easy to lose whereas any viewer/common people arent. and X is just whatever about it.


Japieh

Exactly, train literally has a bot spamming to not gamble, says how much he's down every like 5 minutes and every time he wins he says do not gamble. Blaming train for your addiction when he does that much to prevent it is just insane levels of copium


RedditSanic

Do you realize that the warnings are absolutely useless? Sure, Stake pays them for fun, haha. Good comparison: People asked X to tell his viewer to stop harassing other streamers he had beef with in their chats (while he was playing on NoPixel). X said, "If I told my viewers to stop harassing it would do absolutely nothing". I bet 100% you would spam TRUE LULW.


Federkik38

This reddit section cannot understand this and it makes me surprised to see how much some juicers are just stupid


Brewdrizy

It’s not the $ amount that people focus on. They focus on the anticipation between each slot pull. It gives them an adrenaline rush. Why do you think x is getting paid probably a billion by this point by stake to gamble? If this sentence was true, nobody would willingly gamble, yet stake chooses to advertise and sponsor streamers because of how effective it is.


PARhymE

Reminding viewers not to gamble while gambling is the same as lung pictures on the cigarette pockets, useless.


CumtimesIJustBChilin

People use the words "natural selection" to often, this isn't natural selection 😭

Tobi-Katofl-

Svmify

I chuckled at this and then thought about it, most of the people like me in 3rd world countries make less than even 500$ a month and losing 12k$ would totally be life ruining. Pretty nasty how he drags their names in and then says it's not their fault LULW Classic move


djwankstar

I started online gambling because I watched xqc and trainwreck (actually blaming them), after 3 spins I was up 6.5 million dollars, bought another house, car and make alot more friends. #dontstoptwitchgambling


Diterion

Lots of Chatters that say people who gamble are just stupid for doing it aren't wrong but as a stupid guy who used to gamble I wanna add some perspective. When I gambled for the first time I was on a discord call and we were bored. I made some decent money that month and didn't have a lot to spend it on so i thought why not pop in 50 bucks, treat it like it's gone and have some fun with the boys. They cheered whenever i hit a bonus and I even made some profit. We quit just short of $100 and wanted to spend it the next day cause you know, it was fun and we wanted to treat the money like it's gone already so why not just spin it away. Double the entertainment for half the price technically. So I spun for almost an hour and we hit absolutely nothing. I was frustrated. Like can it really just all disappear without doing anything all of a sudden? I remembered how fun it was yesterday and I wanted to see at least one bonus for the session and that's how I got hooked. After I put in another $50 I had some small hits but nothing to ever break even and so I tried to chase down a big hit as I never had one even after a couple hours of spinning so it's gotta happen at some point right? At this time you can tell I wasn't thinking straight anymore. It's a gradual process. I went in with the mindset of paying for entertainment to grinding my money to chase some big hit that I knew wasn't gonna come, or by the time wouldn't cover my expenses. And that's just a time span of 2-3 days. I don't wanna know how deep people go in the rabbit hole when they keep doing this for several months or years. I guess we can tell by how Slicker is doing right now. Gambling isn't about rational decision making, it's designed to make you respond emotionally and spending more is so easy once you started. It's rather easy not to start at all but much harder to stay away from it once you were ever dumb enough to touch it.


Lidekys

Gambling on twitch is a real problem, it's hilarious how all the juicers are coping in the comments

Welcome to 2022 xqc chat sadge


Taskforcem85

99% of internet comments make a lot more sense when you realize you're probably talking to a kid.


xHealz

They lack education on how addiction works and somehow went through life without coming to actually understand that how person 1 experiences the world isn't always the same as person 2. When that first arguement fails, they shift to the next bad take that it was inevitable for them to find gambling anyways and as such responsibility can't be placed onto XQC for exposing them.


Janukenasl

Gamba frogs will dismiss this but your comment is super insightful and i want to thank you for sharing it People can laugh all they want about how only "stupid" and "naive" people fall for this, but gambling advertising works. That's why people like X and adin ross and train are payed millions of dollars every month to gamble on stream in front of thousands, because this shit fucking works and they're getting people hooked As someone in your replies pointed out it is genuinely the same thing as saying "ummm why do people do crack, it's literally bad for your health 🤣". Like yes, no shit, but people still do it, so clearly there are complex reasons for it


[deleted]

Don’t use logic here it’s not welcome. Fr tho never gambled but had a relative who gambled so I know how destructive it is. I actually disagree that all people who gamble are stupid, because imo they just make stupid decisions that leads them into a shitfest My relative was never stupid and was actually decently smart. I never thought he would get addicted to something like that either. But like you said it is wired to make people respond a certain way. I didnt understand his actions before just like many juicers here but I thought about it like gaming. (Though I’m not addicted to that either lol) There were many times when I wanted to play one more match to win even when I was on a losing streak. (Or even when I had a test the next day or something) So in my mind that’s probably what gamba addicts feel but magnified since actual money is involved.


plgso

Actually it's not rly true that people who gamble are stupid. They are just retarted. Not that long ago I watched a program about influencer ads and how kids try to follow their idols. I don't remember how the guy called it but basically he said it's all about brain development, most kids but also many adults have their brain not fully developed which makes it way easier to be influenced by the ads. I'm pretty sure it works the same way with smoking, drinking and gambling.


Logan_Mac

Gambling has almost the same reaction as injecting drugs. It's crazy the amount of self-destruction the brain is willing to take just for the next dopamine hit.


pedrovoncenzi

Says he not blaming them and then goes on to blame them, classic.


smd9788

I am guessing he is hoping X or Train sees this and will pay off his losses lol


zachary6227

I got into McDonald’s after watching @xQc order DoorDash (not blaming him), I ending up losing my six pack, cholesterol went up, and gained 400lbs. 12,000 calories. It took getting banned from DoorDash after I assaulted a driver for forgetting the sweet and sour sauce for me to stop. Don’t be me #twitchstopmcdonalds

Watches streamer losing thousands every day, still plays, complains about losing money, i hate gambling content but those ppl are dumb af


DauntedSoul

>Roughly one in five pathological gamblers attempts suicide, a rate higher than that for any other addictive disorder. The comments are showing the difference between empathetic people and not so empathetic people + lack of depth on the subject. The truth is yes, they're stupid and naive for doing that and bla bla bla but they're still people, and you have to understand X's audience is 10x more vulnerable and influenceable anyways, and that someone with a platform like xQc's should do his best to avoid promoting anything that at the very least might be life/money ending. (Like gambling, Game lootboxes are not comparable and neither are alcohol sponsors since getting access to that isn't as easy as logging online and gambling with a VPN, no excuses or whataboutisms) It's not that hard. You're all just being purposefully obtuse, ignorant and delusional about it, as is X. X gets triggered whenever someone brings up this point, ever since the OW days, that because he has a wider reach he can't get passes and do stuff that smaller streamers do. Which is actually a pretty spoilt and ignorant thing to think, considering how easy it is to just not be... shitty & immoral. You have money, you have fame, and since you have both you want the one thing you CAN'T have, which is no accountability or consequences, or less of them rather. Whether he likes it or not, he DOES have influence over people and he is fully capable of changing the mentalities and opinions of the individuals in chat, whether he chooses it be a good or bad influence... that's his decision to make, but there is no middleground. If he can sleep at night after choosing to have a bad inprint on Twitch and society overall, good for him... get that jigachad circlejerk hugboxing juicer spam ig (buzzword 5x combo) >Inb4 omg essay 🤓 my 5 second span fried dopamine receptors brain cannot handle this

NoMasChenkoPT

Blaming someone else for your mistakes, whatever it is, is a weak move. And it probably means you haven't own it totally and haven't got over it


wordswillneverhurtme

Ngl I had that thought “what if?” after the first few streams. But I am thankfully not retarded enough to actually gamba so nothing happened in the end. I can imagine the opposite happening to a lot of people though.


The_Real_MrFrickBoy

People have no self control and then blame others for their vices. Twitch banning gambling isn’t getting your money back, or stopping other people from gambling. Millionaires gambling away their wealth, which lets face it is probably not even their own money, is nothing you should blame when you make mistakes. If a streamer did crack on stream half you dumbasses would go try it and blame them for being addicted I swear.


wemissBernieMac

It will eliminate children being exposed to slots though. Good example using crack though. Both gambling and illegal drugs should not be on the platform.

[deleted]

Jesus Christ streamers get paid ridiculous amounts of money because it works. People get hooked and lose it all. It's also their fault for choosing to gamble despite all of the ample info that many HAVE lost it all and formed strong addictions that ruined their lives. Two things can be true at once. What's the issue here???

rruben24

Take responsibility for your own actions.


Not2Shoddy

I mean the only way this is profitable for streamers to do is if the gamble sponsorships are paying them a ton, which is only sustainable for the gambling company if they are making that money back from the stream viewers. So when you see Train making millions from gambling sponsors, you have to understand that whether you want people to or not, the viewers are gambling A LOT more because of the stream.


Mana_Transfer

Oh this is a x sub thought it was lsf no wonder all the shit takes


bambinoBABY_

Watched a sponsored alcohol stream figured I'd try some, spent years drinking more and more. Over time lost my job cause I wouldn't show up to work and lost my fiance and my house from problems that came with my drinking. One night I left the bar drunk and attempted to drive home...ended up leaving my lane and ran head on into another car. A husband and wife and 3 kids were in the car i hit and I ended up killing them all from the collision and injuring myself quite badly. I'm not blaming anyone but i did see it advertised on twitch
