If this should be implemented will it affect bitcointalk casinos? As we all know most established and new casinos come to bitcointalk to launch their ANN thread and carry out signature promotion campaigns which can be regarded as ads in a sense. If ads should be banned will their promotion in Bitcointalk also end?

Australian laws should have no effect on a global forum. I don't see how they can enforce this in their country without resorting to widespread censorship of the internet. Gambling ads are everywhere. Maybe they will just ban gambling entirely, that way even if a user clicks on an ad or visits a casino site after watching a video ad the domain will be blocked by their ISP.
