“illegal activity”
Now for the record, counting cards is not illegal. Yes, if you are caught doing it, you’ll get kicked out of the casino and probably banned, but there is nothing against the law about doing it. So to try to get this goal banned for it being illegal activity is like saying that a goal of eating food dropped on the floor is illegal. It’s not something that is condoned, but there’s nothing against the law about it.
In fact this person is flagging all kinds of casino goals based on entries under the goals instead of looking at the merits of the goal themself. If you read the following goals just by themselves, can they not be a valid goal?

Build Four Corners Hotel and Casino (Colorado Utah Arizona and New Mexico)

Just reading these goals there is nothing that violates terms of use. That’s the problem with flagging goals. People are looking at the entries under them and instead of flagging people who truly are using the site for commercial use or spam, they are flagging goals that can have valid uses for deletion too.
And while we’re at it today, one more goal that I defended was:
play casino at bettinghouse88.com which was flagged because it had a URL in the goal. My defense was:
Can be valid goal. Just because it has a URL doesn’t make it automatically invalid as a goal. If that were the case the goals about learn how to use 43Things.com would be invalid too.
Again people need to be taking the time to look at the goal alone and judge it on its own merits, not the merits of the entries underneath it or their own biases against casinos, drugs, werewolves, vampires, mermaids, Republicans, etc. Well, I’m okay with getting rid of the Republican goals, but you get my point.
