AskGamblers as in a AskGamblers.com the self proclaimed Best Online Gambling Website in 2020 🥇?
I'm sorry, I don't mean to sound rude, but why is so much weight put onto such website? They don't seem like a "regulatory body" even.

Because when you hear regulatory body, you think government officials; law experts, lawmakers, parliamentarians and generally people that would make up a government organization that exerts authority over something like an industry. For all I know AskGamblers' interaction with users goes as far as having a forum. Why should their word be respected more than anything on this forum. After all, AskGamblers' primary source of income must be casinos themselves, so there's a bit of a conflict of interest here. It would be like allowing a judge to accept bribes if you ask them to be the final authority protecting gamblers/bettors.
