OP, why you're so confident that it won't happen in a million years. I kinda feel that such thing can happen one day and it would have much bigger influence than ban of mixers.

Change is hard my friend. Sorry to come off so "locked in" as to my opinion on the matter.

It could definitely happen, and I'm back on bct after being afk for a bit to come back and see that the poll I started is very mixed. Shocked

I am happy that the poll is reflecting what it does, as I knew this is exactly the kind of outcome it would have. Cool

I hope it fuels further discussion from wiser members of the forum than myself.

I'm tired of treating suicidal people who want to kill themselves because they lost money gambling. It's more common than you guys think! Cry

I'm sure you guys know where my vote stands, but I am heavily biased since I am a mental health professional. We literally ban certain patients from having playing cards because they will start tearing up their toilet paper and make tiny balls out of it. They then use the balls as "chips" in poker games with the other patients. Grin

I normally don't have an issue with poker playing or card games in general with my patients, but when I know they have a history of gambling and the gambling is a risk factor to their mental health/disease, I won't enable that behavior. Undecided
