Easy to Activate
When Should You Stop & Seek Help?

Online gambling is a fun form of entertainment when done responsibly. However, like any activity involving money, it can become a problem if left unchecked.

There is no shame in admitting that things are not going well. Recognizing the early signs of a gambling problem is the bravest and smartest first step you can take. Here are the warning signs that deserve serious attention.

If you identify yourself in this list:

Stop playing for the time being, contact bones88 customer support, and activate the appropriate control tools. Seek professional help if needed — this is an act of strength, not weakness.

1
Playing With Money You Need

Using money set aside for bills, food, or other basic necessities to gamble is a serious sign that gambling has gone beyond entertainment.

2
Chasing Losses

Continuing to play in an attempt to recover money already lost — known as "chasing losses" — is one of the clearest signs of a gambling problem.

3
Lying About Gambling

Hiding gambling activity from family or friends, or lying about the amount spent, indicates something is wrong.

4
Unable to Stop Even When You Want To

Repeatedly trying to stop or cut back on gambling without success is a sign of dependency that requires professional help.

5
Gambling Interfering with Daily Life

When gambling starts affecting your job, relationships, sleep, or health, it is no longer entertainment — it is a problem that needs to be addressed.

6
Borrowing Money to Gamble

Borrowing from family, friends, or financial institutions to keep gambling is a sign that the situation has become serious and requires immediate action.

10 Principles of Responsible Gaming at bones88

These principles are simple, practical, and have helped many Malaysian players enjoy a healthier and more enjoyable gaming experience.

  • Set a budget before you play. Decide how much you are comfortable spending before opening your account. Think of it as the cost of entertainment, like going to the cinema or a concert.
  • Never gamble with borrowed money. Only use surplus funds that will not affect your or your family's daily needs if fully spent.
  • Accept that losses are part of the game. All casino games have a house edge. The possibility of losing is always present and must be accepted as a fact.
  • Do not chase losses. When you reach your limit, stop immediately. Adding deposits to try to recover losses almost always leads to even greater losses.
  • Take regular breaks. Get up, move around, and step away from the screen at least once every hour. Non-stop play impairs your judgment.
  • Do not play when you are emotionally unstable. Turning to gambling to cope with personal problems, work stress, or grief almost always ends with decisions you will regret.
  • Do not let gambling become your primary activity. Make sure you have other activities in your life — family, sports, hobbies. Gambling should only be one of many entertainment options you enjoy.
  • Use the available control tools. bones88 provides deposit limits, time limits, and free play breaks. Make use of these tools — they exist because we care.
  • Do not play when you are tired or after consuming alcohol. This state impairs good decision-making and can lead to unplanned betting.
  • Review your gaming history regularly. bones88 provides a complete record of your activity. Review it from time to time to ensure your playing habits remain in check.

Quick Self-Test — Is Your Gambling Still Under Control?

The following questions are adapted from the internationally recognised Gamblers Anonymous Test. Answer honestly with yourself — no one will judge you. The sole purpose of this test is to help you assess your situation more objectively.

If you answered "Yes" to 3 or more of these questions, it is a sign that you may need to speak with a professional about your gambling habits.

Remember:

Acknowledging there is a problem is the first and most important step. Millions of people worldwide have successfully overcome gambling problems by seeking the right help at the right time.

Have you ever taken time away from work or family to gamble?

Has gambling ever caused financial problems in your life or your family's?

Have you ever felt regret, depression, or guilt after gambling?

Have you ever gambled to escape problems or cope with feelings of stress?

Have you ever tried to stop gambling but failed to do so?

Have you ever thought about ways to get money to gamble?

If 3 or more answers are "Yes":

Contact bones88 customer support to activate self-exclusion, and consider seeking professional help. You are not alone in this.

Frequently Asked Questions About Responsible Gaming

Answers to the questions we receive most often from bones88 members about responsible gaming.

Deposit limits can be reduced at any time and the change takes effect immediately. However, to increase a deposit limit, there is a mandatory 7-day waiting period after the request is made. This is a protective measure designed to give you time to reconsider the decision.

A Play Break is a temporary pause ranging from 24 hours to 30 days. Your account will reopen automatically once the period ends. Self-Exclusion is a more serious commitment — from 1 month to permanent — and cannot be shortened once activated. For permanent exclusion, the account is closed forever. Choose whichever best suits your needs.

bones88 uses a detection system that identifies users who have activated self-exclusion. If you attempt to register a new account using the same or similar information during an exclusion period, the new account will be declined and terminated. We take self-exclusion commitments seriously to protect your wellbeing.

In certain situations involving serious concerns, a family member may contact the bones88 support team to discuss the case. However, the final decision to activate self-exclusion requires confirmation from the account holder themselves, except in cases involving verified legal issues or certified mental incapacity.

Yes, absolutely. Any balance in your account (cash, not bonuses) remains safe during the self-exclusion period. Once the period ends or the required verification process is completed, you may request a withdrawal of that balance. Contact bones88 customer support for assistance with withdrawing your balance during or after the self-exclusion period.

bones88 encourages any player who feels they have a gambling problem to seek professional help. In Malaysia, you can get help through qualified counselors, government hospitals, or rehabilitation centers that provide gambling problem counseling services. Contact bones88 customer support and we will assist you with information on available support resources.
