Recognising Signs of At-Risk Behaviour
It is important to recognise when gaming starts to negatively affect your life. Here are some warning signs that should be taken seriously:
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to play
- Playing to escape problems or life stressors
- Chasing losses by continuing to bet more
- Lying about the time or money spent on gaming
- Unable to stop playing even when you want to
- Borrowing money or selling assets to keep playing
- Neglecting family, work, or study responsibilities
- Spending more on gaming than your finances actually allow
- Personal relationships strained due to excessive gaming habits
- Hiding gaming activity from loved ones
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself, now is the right time to use the self-control tools provided by 10w40 or to seek professional help.
Tips for Setting Time and Budget Limits
One of the most effective ways to stay in control is to plan ahead. Here's a practical guide we recommend to all 10w40 users:
Decide how much MYR (RM) you can comfortably set aside for entertainment each week or month. Think of it like any other leisure expense — similar to catching a movie or dining out. Never gamble with money meant for essentials like rent, food, or bills.
Set a dedicated gaming window in your daily schedule. Use a timer or phone reminder to alert you when your time is up. Stop playing when that time runs out — regardless of whether you're winning or losing at that point.
Every game involves an element of chance, and losses are part of the experience. Never chase your losses by betting more. Once you've hit your set loss limit, stop playing for the day and try again another time.
Underage Protection
10w40 takes the protection of children and minors very seriously. Our platform is intended for individuals aged 18 years and above only. We implement multiple measures to prevent access by minors:
- All users are required to verify their age upon registration.
- An identity verification (KYC) process is conducted to validate the information provided.
- Accounts suspected of belonging to underage individuals will be suspended immediately pending investigation.
- Parents and guardians are encouraged to use parental control software to restrict children's access to online entertainment websites.
If you suspect that a minor is using the 10w40 platform, please contact our customer support immediately at [email protected].
Life Balance & Seeking Professional Help
Responsible gaming goes beyond using control tools — it's about maintaining a healthy balance across all areas of your life. 10w40 encourages all users to:
- Spend quality time with family and friends
- Keep up hobbies and interests outside of gaming
- Make sure gaming doesn't interfere with your sleep or physical health
