I agree with the points you have mentioned. But apart from those reasons, I guess another big reason is campaign managers. I feel like the campaign managers like to reach out to casinos more. I guess it is easy to convince the casinos to run their ad campaigns. Actually, the casinos are looking to promote their platform wherever they can. Even they place ads on porn websites. It feels like they are desperate to promote their casino.
So you are saying indirectly that campaign managers are responsible for what is happening within the forum. I am not shocked with your reasoning but I do feel you are commenting in this topic that doesn't hold any systematic value.
You have been in this forum for a long time and you have seen how the forum has struggled to get through traffic. These new guys or those alt accounts come up with such topics which they don't understand.
