I find it funny that these people don't even play CS:GO and they still pretend to care about our game.

I hate h3h3 more and more with every video. Why is Ethan so good at rousing normalfags?

Why do they have to care about the game itself, when it really has nothing to do with the issue at hand?

I seriously don't see the appeal, pham. The fact the threads and comments you read are the the ones that get more upvotes make it a bigger echo chamber than tumblr.

Can Valve even do anything about 3rd-party gambling sites?

>our game

Yes they can. They have to just stop out of steam trading and it should clear out all of these gambling sites. But they would lose a ton of money on people force buying skins to use on gambling. Its going to be a lose lose for valve in the end.

Blacklist API access to gambling sites.

Granted a dozen more would spring up in their place.

kill yourself

GabeN needs to get taken down a notch. That fat fuck allowed all this to go on and it's pretty despicable.

You don't need to play a certain game to understand that corruption can be going on in it. I highly doubt most people who covered the FIFA scandal played soccer.

>it's okay for Sony and MS to charge for online, and for Nintendo to lock content behind amiibos

>but if Valve lets people gamble their money away on reskins, which will never even happen in-game, somehow they're the devil

>I hate h3h3 more and more with every video.
Have you tried not watching his videos? It helps.

Kill yourself

that's not the point you fucking retard, watch the video. The point is that gambling sites are giving preferred rolls to their sponsors and they aren't disclosing it, leading their fans to want to use the websites.

Wo there friendo, I see you are trying to cast a line out there. But it seems you are using bad bait.

Here friend i have some nice bait that you can use. It will only cost you 20 dollars

Okay, and why is Valve to blame here? I don't recall them putting a gun to anyone's head and telling them to use these sites. Infact, I don't think they even endorse them, aside from API integration, which several hundred sites get.

That's quite a comparison you pulled there. You must keep your shithole trained and well prepared.

Let's say that sponsership deals started to effect how players played in the NBA/NFL, and those organizations caught wind of it.

Wouldn't they be obliged to do something about it, such as penalizing players or outright banning them from sponsorships by the companies in question?

Valve is letting it happen, despite the clear signs of corruption.

no one is blaming valve

we should delete this thread

>Valve is letting it happen, despite the clear signs of corruption.
It's a third party site though. And valve even implemented escrow because of reasons like this, so you wouldn't have your items scammed off of you, or have your account hijacked.

It genuinely seems like the people who may have lost their money did so willingly, bypassing every protection and warning valve gave.

I know the video is not directed at valve as much as the 3rd party gaming sites but there is one thing I have to ask.

Is case-opening really gambling?
You win something every time.
What is the criterias for gambling?
Is it gambling if you buy a mystery box?

Ethan is based, and you sound like a redditor.

I find this interesting how threads regarding this subject keep getting deleted on Sup Forums.

It's actually really weird.

Third party sites that let you log in through Valve's API directly
Sites that also feature underage gambling

Even though its related to a specific video game, to a specific company, and is a relevant event in the gaming industry, its not video games

>80 threads on one subject
>it's e-drama and youtube shit
Very interesting.

Nigger.

Because it's eceleb off topic crap. CSGO is just a small part of this shit.

What would be a good board to discuss this? Sup Forums?

Crate opening is a super-weaksauce form of gambling. Yeah you always win something, but usually it's worth less on the Gaben-Funbux Market compared to the cost of play. If I ran a casino and I gave losers a penny for each dollar bet they lost, I couldn't say 'oh hey it's not gambling even the losers get something' and then use that excuse to let kids gamble at my casino. That said, crate unboxing isn't so dire that you need to ban kids from CSGO (though it is rated M/PEGI18, parents)

It only really becomes Hotsauce Real Gambling when you use these third party websites. At which point, yeah, they should be checking people's ages before letting them buy and gamble skins.

>CSGO is just a small part of this shit.

It's entirely centered around CSGO.

>are giving preferred rolls to their sponsors and they aren't disclosing it
they are not "sponsors". they own that fucking website.

8ch Sup Forums, they actually accept eceleb cancer there

>8ch
eh, nope

This.

Literally the only interesting part of the video is 'these csgo youtubers advertised a gambling site they own without disclosing they own it to their 13 year old fanbases'.

why do you care about shit posting on reddit? cut your losses and just stay on Sup Forums.
what do you gain from going to reddit?
OP is a faggot

>dat feel when h3h3 will never make good content ever again

It's no coincidence that once a youtuber makes a "career" out of his or her videos, that they become trash.

Doesn't ethan play csgo though?

>our game

anybody that respects CS's legacy in general doesn't play CSGO

I like their new videos. The whole Bradberry meme stuff is gold, the last one had amazing editing.

can you make money playing CSGO and selling the skins on the steam market?
havent touched the game but i heard people are spending thousands real dollars to colour their knife red or something. Do you get those skins randomly while playing or do you need to invest real money for it? Doyou need to be gud?

"our" game? piss off casual faggot, WE don't care about your shitty skinner box that you've wasted thousands of dollars on.

You didn't specify the board couldn't be shit, user

>Why is Ethan so good at rousing normalfags?
I dunno, you tell me. You're the one who seems to be pretty roused.

Why has reddit been posted here so much lately? This is unacceptable.

The FTC should come down on these guys for not disclosing that they own the site in the first place. That's the main issue. I don't really care about the "morals" of gambling for skins.

So we've gone from e-celeb twitter threads to posting actual reddit now

>Granted a dozen more would spring up in their place.
This. Its like trying to remove music from Youtube. You take down one hundred of them, there are like one thousand more, and those one hundred will be replaced instantly. Sure you can blame Valve for not doing anything, but what are they supposed to do?
Gambling is pure cancer anyway, its a form of addiction and these kiddies have got it bad.

>I find it funny that these people don't even play CS:GO
That's not even what the video is about though. It's all about the gambling and the people behind it.

That's the thing here, you'd only go the "BUT THINK OF THE CHILDREN" route if your intention is to actually rouse people up rather than to just get the information out there

Most people don't give a shit about things like this, but when you point out it might 'endanger' children you're going to at least get the moralfags onboard

>Posting without saging

Fucking kys

>our game

OK, let's not include children. Let's forget that kids are the fanbase of these channels and one of the points is that this allows children to gamble, which is illegal.

But hey, so you can be satisfied we better leave them out.

>sage
fucking hell I forgot that was even a thing. Guess it's not as easy to remember when people stopped announcing it as a downvote.

>listening to the jew
>despite being wrong about leafyishere

>despite being wrong about leafyishere
kys

Valve are supreme Jews, who gives a fuck

How the fuck are you gonna stop children from gambling in these sites anyways? Age check, that's like saying kids don't watch porn because those sites have age checks

>pretends to hate leafyishere
>still uses his memes

The objective of the video is call attention to this so that the debate can ensue. What can go wrong?

I don't hate leafy. But h3h3 wasn't wrong. Leafy is a cunt, you can't deny it either as Leafy will always admit he's a cunt.

I hate eceleb shit, but this is most certainly not eceleb shit.

Valve are jews and that's what's being discussed.

you seriously follow that drama? everyone involved in this meaningless shit is not worth watching
kill yourself

I'm not criticizing the video or anything, just saying there's no simple solution to this, it's the Internet people can lie about their age

>Leafy will always admit he's a cunt.


its not like it matters, people follow him because he is a cunt in his vids.

The only thing he does in his vids is to be as offensive as and make as many bad jokes possible and somehow people watch that

Yes

Those two aren't even remotely related you fucking idiot.

I wish cross posters would get banned. Fucking LEAVE.

This is the only meaningful post ITT

h3h3's content is only enjoyed by the absolute worst people imaginable.

Still a decent dude though
