Yes, I have been hiding something on these forums. I have a gambling addiction. I am addicted to buying Random Money items, and I lose BIG nearly every time.
It all started when I stumbled across them. I decided to buy one, and I got money! I did it with another, and another, and another, and won I think every single time. I went from about 900 to 2100 minerals. I decided to keep going. I lost, then won, then lost lost lost all the way back to nothing. I contemplated suicide that night, but decided to build up my minerals again Random Money. I won! I did it again, I lost. Then lost again, and I had nothing. Ever since then, I don't think I have ever won any money. I usually go in with 320 something, and end up with less than 200. This has happened 8-10 times. This last time, I went in with around 330, and ended up with 78.
You might think, "bullshit, you only have 200 posts". WRONG! This brings me to my second point: my gambling addiction made me a masochist.
I often used Fast Reply to edit my posts, but that actually reduces your post count by 1. When I realized that it was happnening, I took it upon myself to try and destroy all of my posts, so I would reach 0. I gave up on the self-inflicted damage after getting down to about 150.
Don't gamble, kids.
Whoa man. Just try to get off on SEN for a while, it'll help. >.> Minerals aren't that important.
I was thinking about checking into rehab for this, but I decided I couldn't bring myself there.
What exactly are the odds of it? Is it more in favor of you losing money? Like does it give you less than 300 more than getting over 300?
I strongly would advise going to rehab. This gambling addiction can cause you preciouse minerals. You've got a seriouse problem on gambling. Tell them that you have the addiction of gambling for minerals on www.staredit.net. Explain to them how the mineral system works and what this website is. They might be able to help.
Before this post, I have 330 minerals. Let's see what happens.
(Yes, I know that you are at odds to lose money doing this, but I've lost way more than the odds).
ADDITION:
Hahaha, I made 17 minerals. Time to do it again!

Roffles...
Do ihatett! I'll bring the popcorn!
Me and PsychoTemplar have been going into this together, we've probably bought more than 600 Random Moneys the past week, once I got over 1,000 I spend it on a title glow. We put our money together in a time like this when neither of us can purchase one.
well I have a few name changing items and random moneys, might use them...
gambled

didn't gain much (win/lose/win/win)
Hmm.... Gambling is like chips.
"Pringles
BETCHA CANT HAVE JUST ONE!!!11"
Rehab for a Minerals on a Map Making Site.... I like to see that counciling Circle that day.
It's better than being addicted to poker in real life (not that I am - A friend of mine is though).
I wish I had minerals.

man if you have an addiction then you have a problem in life.
mostly addiction leads to stupid people.
Is this for real..

Like it really doesn't seem like hes serious. Any 1 could say that.. I guess you have to choose to belive him or not.
I had a problem... until I lost all my minerals and my family disowned me. I became a beggar on the street, begging people for minerals to support my habit.
Spare Change? Surely you've got some spare minerals Snipe? Brother, can you spare a mineral? Someone help me!
J/k. I lost 100 mins on the Random money and gave up on it.
Seriously ihatett, its no problem. I really hope you're joking.
There's ups and downs to gambling with random money, when you get on a roll you just don't wanna stop, then once you start losing minerals, you feel the law of averages will work in your favor and you'll get back to were you where... but... you just lose it all in the end... (Note: My mineral count)

100 minerals says u cant stop gambling...
HERE I GO AGAIN!
