Most of the time the player turns out to be wrong and is using the forum to strong arm a casino. I still always start off taking the player's side until the book proves him guilty.
Bravo! But in the sincerity of my experience, this must be in rare cases unless you are not referring to this forum. It happens both ways as there are some casinos that will be easily sided and exonerated but there are even more complainers that win the casinos. Some cases were resolved, while others were never resolved even as most casinos were unable to prove their guiltlessness.
According to my relatively long experience here on the forum, more than 90% of the accusation topics that are published, whether in the accusations section or in the gambling section or even in comment posts, the user is not right and the casino can find arguments to support its position. Of course, here I mean the accusations that target casinos known for their integrity.
And often, the accusation topics for one casino follow one another in a very short period.
This often happens with casinos that operate outside the forum and do not have representation here.
I believe those scam accusations against those casinos that operate outside of the forum, and those that don't have any representation among the trusted campaign of the community, are useless accusations. It will probably be good to be included in a list of which services to avoid. But if a brand new account makes an accusation vs. an unknown casino, what good could that do for us in BitcoinTalk?
This does not mean that all casinos are always honest because some of them have turned into scams over time, but in general it can be said that casino projects that have representation on the forum and have active interaction with the community here, are always careful in implementing their policies because they realize that any mistake, no matter how small, could lead to ruining their reputation. This confirms the possibility of considering the forum as a relative guarantee of the integrity of some projects that build part of their reputation using it.
If the casino has a current signature campaign that's managed by a trustworthy manager, then there's a higher probability that that casino is not a scam. Managers usually stop representing them when they start becoming scams.
