A section for gambling TC and quickselling.
I believe this has been suggested before but I was unable to find the original thread and I really liked the idea so I am trying to get it noticed again.
Aight so I and many other TC gambling users would appreciate a section on the forums for gambling TC and items. This doesn't have to be anything extravagant; a coin flip game or a jackpot would be pretty cool to have.
A coin flip would just involve you and another user risking the same amount of TC with a 50% chance to almost double it. I say almost because a portion of the TC will be sunk e.g. a 50k coinflip would sink 10k (20%) and a 100k coinflip would sink 20k. So basically 20% is always deleted.
Jackpot would just be a wheel with slots for each player taking part (like a pie chart). You can improve your chances of winning by increasing your TC bet or adding higher value items (this increases the size of your slot). Everything in the jackpot would be sent to the winner but likewise to the coinflip, 20% of the TC will be sunk. Users should also be able to win items at a higher qi then what they are at.
Now as for quickselling, a user may not want an item they win in the jackpot. A quicksell feature could be useful. This is a section that lets you trade your item in for 50% of what it is worth in the market for instant TC. It could also just be useful in general. The item would get re-stocked onto the torishop.
I am trying to bring a way to sink TC at the same time here with this idea.

Gambling is an addiction, weather your using a fake currency or not.
When people gamble on Toribash, they are working up to a goal or a specific item. You can't compare gambling addictions in reality to wanting a lot of TC, that just isn't fair.
If some little kid starts to gamble and gets addicted, they will probably start gambling with real money and throwing that away aswell. Honestly, saying "it's at your own risk" isn't good enough for me, The fact of the matter is they could easily bypass that system and gamble.
Your point sounds like an extreme and unlikely circumstance. Little kids on Toribash already take part in bet servers and bet little TC aiming for a new force or a 3d item. Not once have I encountered one lose 500tc and then begin spam buying TC everytime they lost.
Also, staff themselves say when it comes to betting, it is completly at your own risk. I am not introducing anything new here, it's still a gamble and it's at your own risk. Buying TC to bet on bet servers is no different from buying TC to bet on a coin flip. Both involve risk and a chance for profit. And what do you mean 'bypass the system'? Real bet sites have much stricter rules otherwise they could face being sued.
Gambling can be a terrible addiction and Internet gambling is insanely hard to regulate. I really hope nothing like this ever gets implemented.
Again, I believe you are being too extreme, think about what Toribash is.

I asked this already the reply i got was that no one is available to code it.
If someone can code it it'd think it be something to add.
