Stake has updated the requirements for receiving the rain in chat. Only level 2 KYC verified users will be able to receive rains from Stake chat now. Wagering requirements is still applicable. I think Stake is the first casino where identity verification is required to be eligible for the chat rains. However, I have nothing to say about this change. I haven't received any single rain in last 11 months, I rarely sent messages in the chat.

On one hand, I can understand it as you will weed out a lot cheaters/abusers/ double accounts. On the other hand, they force you to do full KYC just in the hopes to receive some rain. I know it can be rewarding, but because all the spamming and begging, I rarely chat on gambling sites. It is difficult to really have a conversation.
This is something that too much but if they do really see this as a solution about cheaters/abusers then it would be a good thing on getting rid of them via of this means or requirements.
For standard users, is this KYC still needed? I havent played on the site for a while but im much aware on that rain feature that they do have.
I do also seldom chat because its not really part of my interest.
