Someone isn’t keen on moving to Malta
Technically it's possible not to move to Malta yet play under MGA rules instead of UKGC whilst residing in the UK. Simply rent an office space in Malta and setup a company there, sign up to casino's with your new company's address in Malta and then setup a computer there so you can use the "company VPN": work from home in the UK.
The murky world of online casinos ukgc couldn’t possibly take yous all down lolMost of my accounts were opened in Malta years ago and I can still buy bonus buys in the UK if I wanted to.
That’s the thing nic, as much as it’s denied and you get the clowns saying (watching you gamble £20 a spin helps me) there has been a massive spike in gambling related addiction since steaming was a thing.To be honest, I thought affiliates / streamers would be making more fuss about these changes after all it will be them who are most affected. Sitting back and saying 'it won't happen' aka NickSlots and Chipmonkz. If I was still an affiliate I would be writing to the Gambling Commission and petitioning.
The guy I spoke to at ICE from UKGC said it was a priority but the sticking point was land-based casinos were at capped at £5. So it would be difficult to implement a lower bet on this type of licence class than a B1 category. I suggested £10 limit online and he said thereabouts most likely for slot based games. Roulette/blackjack would not be limited same as land-based. I think you can do £100,000 spins at Empire in London?
Personally, I welcome £2 limits to combat the growing number of problem gamblers in the UK. It would certainly stop people copying the silly bet sizes that the Bandit and streamers do.
I agree with pretty much everything you say @Playford7 and once I saw the toxic side of affiliates I jacked it in for those reasons.
There are many responsible affiliates just like this site for example but it's the YouTube lot that ruined it all. I visited a library the other week as my phone battery was dead and I needed to e-mail someone. On the front page of YouTube was Stop and Step with a service station video as it was trending in the UK. The Bandit often trends under 'Gaming' which is heavily viewed by kids. You can count on one hand the number of streamers that label their videos 18+ that require a sign in to view.
The thing that makes me laugh is when streamers say I don't make much money from affiliation - Chipmunkz said it last week on stream. How is that possible? Some make £100 CPA + RevShare. When I worked on affiliate site which was RevShare alone, the income was £30-£50k a month just from search engine and social traffic.
I still watch streamers like Hypa, The Hideous Creature and Rocknrolla because there is no affiliate agenda and they play with their own money only.
I think I said here or maybe another forum in January, that 2020 will be the end of streaming at least in the UK. The Hideous Creature said recently that YouTube will ban all gambling videos soon. A step in the right direction
Any changes that the UKGC make to make gambling more responsible is only a good thing.
That's exactly what will happen. Obviously, the UKGC doesn't feel that players can choose their own wagering limits, and they will do this for them. Yet, I am sure the land based casinos in the UK won't be held to these same standards.
This will just drive that UK traffic to the Caribbean casinos - and Bob's yer uncle.

That would be the one, chip also done a stream with them mate. ShamefulYou mean the chap that did a joint stream with Fruityslots the other week? The same Fruityslots that promoted dodgy casinos and had the non gamstop casinos on their website?
Must be about 18/19 at a guessHow old is Chloe who features on Chipmonkz streams? She doesn't look over 25 to me.

Where is that ruling from col? Ukgc? Asa?.Yeah thats what I thought, late teens, early 20's maybe. Funny that, as no gambling can be advertised by anyone under 25 or who looks under 25.
