One of the casinos where I gamble have gone totally overboard with their marketing campaigns. They are spending millions of dollars on marketing and to fund this, they introduced several projects to increase traffic to their site. Now, I am not going to say which site it is.... but I guess a lot of people play there. 
The site is great ....but the gambling experience has deteriorated... because the RTP has been nerf'ed to hell and gone to pay for these projects.
Now my question is this... do you prefer that a casino offer loads of promotions and campaigns and sponsorships and sacrifice RTP in favor of that.... or will you rather have a decent gambling experience with a better RTP?
Let's discuss...

It's worth considering that promotions are not always a good thing to use. I've seen the odd story and anecdotal evidence in the past that some gambling companies have even created long term penalties against user accounts who signed up and took advantage of welcome bonuses. Obviously this would not be publicized, but these casino companies are black box operations most of the time so they can do whatever tweaking them want in the background and it makes sense if they want to recoup losses on these expensive customer acquisitions. Besides using free bet offers, it might be better - if you intend to stick with a gambling company for a while - to just skip any relatively small sign up bonuses for this reason.
