New Slot Announcement Roshtein Megaways by GameArt

So I wonder how the affiliate managers will deal with this type of thing

Nickslots on this video is clearly advertising Rizk @rizkaffiliatemanager just tagging you to see if you would like to comment

There is no age gate on this video

Pretty open and shut, no age verification required, clearly advertising a casino, however, this screenshot is from a compilation video

So you can't really blame Rizk or Nickslots if someone rips the content and reposts it (if Nickslots was following the rules, which he isn't, no age gating and streaming on Twitch still).

But, the fact remains, the video clearly has an advert for Rizk on it, and is available on youtube without age verification being required. That is a clear breach of the new regulations, regardless of if it was produced by Nickslots or not. I think the UKGC will eventually take action for this, and the only way I can see round it is to take out any on screen graphics advertising.
@rizkaffiliatemanager any reason you are allowing your affiliates to stream on twitch and not age gate youtube videos?
 
@maxd just realised this is a slot thread, the last few pages at least are all about the new affiliate advertising rules, could you split the thread please and stick it in the casino section or something, with a new title maybe?

Yes, this has diverged a bit and they are both important threads in their own right.
 
I didn't quite get through the whole video :). Does a review video, that doesn't mention or show a casino brand with no affiliate links need to be age gated?

No, as there is no involvement of any UKGC licensee or partner - just 18+ would suffice as with other non-advertising or non-promotional content.
There wouldn't be any affiliate links anyway as these are banned by YT and when you get reported, you would get a strike.
 
I find it hilarious that Chip is utterly sh*tting himself about these rules lol

He's totally fu*ked when he's no longer allowed to do his carry ons anymore because he's a nobody streamer with no real friends in the business, they'll happily toss the turd overboard and into the north atlantic without hesitation. There's no way he's big enough to move to Malta and carry on there either.

Nicks another one I'd love to see fall foul but he's just to fooking sly and slimy that one, always seems to come out of any s*it he gets into which is annoying. And with him being high up in CasinoGrounds I can see him being offered a place in Malta from Kim anyway, he'll be just fine will that smug c*nt :(.
 
Why has he got two sex toys superimposed onto his face? :confused::confused:

Because of that incredibly rare and useless wild symbol you see in the base game every few spins and that huge, absolutely massive multiplier that is clearly visible in that insane screenshot.

I mean look at the arrow pointing towards that wild. Really highlighting what an astonishing sight that is.

WOW indeed.
 
So is anyone looking forward to playing

I think it look pretty good, cant wait to play it, I wanna be a Roshteinian.
 
All of the business is rancid nowadays anyway

All slots are rehashes of previous slots, megaways reskins etc, all of it needs shutting down personally

What happened to some thought going into the slot that is going to take your money? like older 3 reelers with skill stoppers etc?
 
No, as there is no involvement of any UKGC licensee or partner - just 18+ would suffice as with other non-advertising or non-promotional content.

That's pretty much what I thought, nice to have it confirmed.
 
I see nickslots today saying he is streaming Rizk on twitch and says casino meister members are wrong and will continue.
Also people were asking Chipmonkz about Age gating but he was just banning them all.
if possible can @rizkaffiliatemanager explain their stance on this?

Yes, the confusion lies in the fact the LCCP updates in July stated advertising must be age-gated with the third-party's own process, in this case YT's. The UKGC expects all licensees and their agents to adhere to the LCCP, so doesn't necessarily update their site every time the LCCP is changed, as licensees are expected to know this and enact those changes. So if the UKGC doesn't say it on their site directly, people think it's not happening. It is. The fact is that some licensees have picked up on the importance of this update (late!) and what it means and are now panicking to get affiliates in line when it comes to streaming/YT. As far as the UKGC is concerned, it's a case of give 'em enough rope...
The fact that not all licensees have realized the magnitude of the conditions and haven't yet contacted affiliates accordingly doesn't mean (as Chip says) that only some are enforcing it!!! ALL UK licensees must enforce it, irrespective of whether they've contacted the affiliates yet. We've seen this before, a change has been made, like for example making sure crucial terms are present in ads on affiliate websites and very few bothered. Suddenly, the UKGC jumps up and starts asking why and there's a big rush to get affiliates compliant. It's a logical step anyway, as TV and Radio advertising was targeted, then social media (some casinos simply forbade advertising on that medium as they weren't confident they'd be fully in control of the content) then it was e-mail marketing which had strict rules and again some programmes stopped affs from using regardless.

So now outstanding is YT/Twitch which as I said is the logical last step to complete the set of casino advertising mediums. If any casino here reads the July LCCP(6) edition, they will see the crucial paragraphs, like some have already and realize the big trap awaiting them. DO nothing, then the UKGC will suddenly target the matter and be rubbing their hands at the fines they can levy for not complying with the LCCP. "We didn't see it, we weren't aware" etc. simply will not wash. It's their responsibility to notice the LCCP updates. Watch this space....
 
Thanks dunover I have downloaded the LCCP July update if possible could you direct me to the paragraphs which are crucial in this respect, as it’s an 80 page document.

edit. I believe this is the relevant document link

The Third edition of the Code added:
• A requirement that gambling operators carry the required social responsibility and age requirements on consumer-facing marketing content on their YouTube channels.

I've just glanced through the video and didn't hear him say anything about people on here being jealous trolls, nor that we are wrong, just that Rizk haven't told him to stop so he's going to continue? Where in the video did he say those things?

While he should read up on things himself, I can say the Betsson group are one of the only ones I haven't had anything from regarding this.
 
It was in the first 45 mins of the stream he specifically targets casinomeister and mentions that chip had alerted him to this thread, and chip should not care what bitter jealous trolls think.

21 mins in he says he is not going anywhere until Rizk tell him otherwise.

37.25 mins in he talks about casinomeister.
