Yes faucet is removed since long time ago for good. Faucet is no more beneficial for gambling sites due to abuse, that's why many gambling sites remove their faucet in the last few years.
In fact, I do not even use faucets anymore where I gamble now, even at the sites that offer them, including my own. I actually still do play AT a faucet site,,, but it is more like to just try for a lottery instead of trying to become rich from faucet, which will never happen anyway! Cheers, Stake!
Then the faucet worked for you as it was supposed to work.

The faucet at these sites has multiple uses, for instance :
1. A person might not trust the site and wants to use the faucet money to test the site features with the sites money and not his/her own money at the start.

(Introduction to the site or a FREE demo)
2. A person might not have enough money to gamble and needs a kickstarter to get them going. (One of my friends family members started with faucet payouts on a site and he won a jackpot with that, he now has more BTC than the rest of the family)
3. The faucet motivates people to regularly visit the site. (Say you have set aside $100 for gambling every week and you gambled the whole $100 in the first 3 days, then you still have a motivation to visit the site to claim the faucet. This is good for the site, because it increase the activity, even if the person just hang around the chat section.

So, let's leave the faucet on these sites, because it has several benefits.
