    This like the loot crates style gambling, or the more casino style gambling?

    It’d be fucking great to see some action taken against the loot crate cancer, not just because it’s predatory gambling aimed at minors, but because it’s destroyed the quality of the gaming industry’s products… the latter obviously not being grounds for legal action, but as a consumer, fuck that noise.

      Casino as Robux have a real world value and kids were gambling in games with them. IMO this is a serious crime and the board should be facing charges.
