What Are the Signs That Gaming Is Becoming a Problem?
Gaming problems don't always appear suddenly — they develop gradually, and many people don't recognise the early signs. If you notice any of the following in yourself, it's important to stay alert and seek support. Being honest with yourself is the first step in addressing the situation. vs 89 wants every user to enjoy the platform with a clear head and to feel comfortable asking for help whenever they need it.
Placing larger bets to recover losses; spending money meant for essential expenses on gaming; taking on debt to keep betting.
Feeling restless or irritable when unable to play; excessive anger or frustration after a loss; hiding gaming activity from others.
Spending far more time gaming than planned; reducing time with family and friends; losing focus on work or studies.
Being dishonest with family about gaming habits; strain in relationships with loved ones; skipping social events to prioritize gaming.
If you notice even one of these signs in yourself, stop now and talk to someone you trust or a professional. Remember, asking for help is not a sign of weakness — it takes real courage.
How to Set Time and Budget Limits
The most effective way to game responsibly is to set clear personal limits before you start. Before joining vs 89, decide how much you can afford to spend on gaming each week or month — and make sure that amount never comes from essential expenses or savings. Keep your entertainment budget separate from everything else, and commit to staying within it. Remember, chasing losses by placing more bets almost always makes things worse.
The same principle applies to your time. Decide in advance how long you'll play each day or per session, and stop when that time is up. Set an alarm or reminder on your phone so you don't lose track. Avoiding gaming on weekdays and keeping it to limited hours on weekends helps build a healthier routine. vs 89 lets you set deposit limits directly from your account settings to help protect your finances.
- Set a monthly gaming budget and stick to it.
- Set a time limit for each session and use an alarm to stay on track.
- Accept money lost through gaming as gone — don't chase it.
- Never use money set aside for emergencies or family expenses on gaming.
- Avoid gaming when you're emotional or after drinking alcohol.
What self-control features does vs 89 offer?
Vs 89 is committed to giving its users full control, and to that end, several practical self-management tools are built directly into your account. They're easy to use and can be activated at any time. We believe every player should have the ability to set their own limits — and we're always here to support you in doing so.
Set a maximum daily, weekly, or monthly deposit amount. Limits take effect immediately once set, and any increase requires a 24-hour waiting period — helping prevent impulsive decisions.
Temporarily suspend your account for a set period — 7, 14, or 30 days. During this time, logging in or placing bets will not be possible, giving you the space to reflect.
If you're experiencing long-term issues, consider using the Self-Exclusion option. You can set a permanent exclusion lasting anywhere from 6 months to 5 years, during which your account cannot be reactivated.
Set a maximum duration for each gaming session in advance. Once that time is up, the system will automatically send you an alert and give you the option to end the session.
To activate these features, go to your account settings or contact our support team. No promotional messages or communications will be sent during a self-exclusion or cooling-off period. vs 89 always respects your choices.
What Do We Do to Protect Minors?
Vs 89 strictly prohibits anyone under the age of 18 from registering or participating in gaming. Age is verified at the point of registration, and identity documents may be requested in cases of doubt. Protecting minors is not merely a legal obligation for us — it is an ethical commitment we take very seriously. Every member of our team and every system we operate is trained and active in upholding this policy.
We ask all adults in the household — please don't leave gaming apps or websites logged in on your device, and keep your account credentials and password out of reach of minors. If you suspect that a minor has accessed your account, contact vs 89 support immediately. Parental control software is another effective way to prevent children from accessing this type of content, and we fully encourage that step.
Date of birth is verified at registration. In cases of doubt, a copy of a national ID or passport may be requested.
Use a strong password and enable two-factor authentication to prevent other household members from accessing your account.
Maintaining Life Balance & Knowing When to Seek Professional Help
Gaming is just one small part of life — balancing family, health, work, and relationships is the real key to long-term wellbeing. vs 89 wants you to enjoy gaming as a form of entertainment, not let it take over your daily life, your relationships, or your peace of mind. Make sure your daily routine includes time with family, physical activity, hobbies, and enough sleep. If gaming starts disrupting that routine, treat it as a warning sign.
If things feel overwhelming, don't hesitate to reach out for professional support. Opening up to a trusted friend or family member is often the most effective first step. Seeing a mental health specialist, counsellor, or therapist is not a sign of weakness — it's a courageous choice to take charge of your own life. In Bangladesh, organisations such as Kaan Pete Roi offer free mental health support and counselling.
Talk to a family member or trusted friend about what you're going through. An honest conversation is often the first step toward resolving many problems.
Speak with a trained mental health professional. Expert guidance can make a real difference in your recovery.
Exercise regularly, pursue hobbies, and spend time with family. A healthy daily routine is the most effective way to reduce the risk of gaming addiction.
