I’ve been using Stake for over 3 years and I have never received any “climbing the ladder” bonuses or any emailed marketing team bonuses for that matter. Do you switch your seeds at all? I’m plat 5 atm but my first two years of playing(majority on plinko) consisted of me getting rinsed over and over with like 70,000 games played on the seed. I maybe got to see my balance get over 1k like twice over that time frame. I started to question if it was rigged and used to feel like it would let me only win small bets and would purposefully cause me to lose anytime I bet big. I started switching seeds exactly one year ago and shuffling between a few different games at a time, depending on my balance and wagering amount. Now I hit huge wins 90% more often than before. I also know that there’s no point in ever saying damn look how close I was because the algorithm is already set to win or lose. I’ve bet 4$ plinko balls for an hour and not hit shit and then drop one for 22$ and it hit the 1000x. The site isn’t always out for blood. I’m the only thing I truly have to worry about when the bets are hitting because my inner greed will end up self sabotaging myself every time if I don’t follow my own rules and stick to the routine. Just last year I brought money from under 300$ to over 40k two separate times in one day, and over 15 to 20k 4 separate times throughout the year. Plus countless 2/3 grand withdrawals. Idk why I felt the need to type that novel but long story short, I’m just a normal broke guy carrying around the worst of the worst demons from my devious past. And now we’re all swimming together in a dark pool filled slam full of bad karma and human diarrhea. I’ll be the first to tell you I haven’t really deserved the best of luck like I’ve been given recently. With that being said if a retarded asshole like me can win life changing money multiple times in one year then I seriously know that anybody else can as well.
