We need gamble block in ESO
http://www.gamblock.com/index.html
My wife loves new mounts and clothes and she has my creditcard nr because I use it for het subscription (yes, we are actual subscribers)
I am afraid she will use your gambleboxes to get the new stuff. I have the fear I come home one day with 20.000 euros debit on my creditcard
There needs to be a lock to prevent children and wifes to gamble with a password.
Please look into this.

Hamiltonmath✭✭✭If your wife has a gambling problem, you need to address her, not people that she can gamble with.
If she were a drug addict, would you demand her dealer stop selling drugs? Hopefully not.

And thus we must protect those people with a parental lock or similar. If my wife has access to a creditcard there is no way knowing what she will do with it. I told het those crowncrate could be bought with rare loot found only in cyrodill. So hopefully that will stall it a bit since she hates PvP.Edited by Knootewoot on December 2, 2016 12:26PM٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶

Pretty sure dealing with drugs is illegal, so yeah, you could demand that.
Anyway, they made a system that uses a loophole in gambling laws for these crates. I'm pretty sure that addicts and potential addicts are their target audience, so unless some government forces them through laws they won't do anything to help those people.9 -

✭✭✭✭✭Honest... Can't people take a little bit of responsibility for themselves ?
In this particular case... (assuming the case is real and not fake, which I personnally doubt)
1. Cancel the credit card (the one used for eso+ for both acoounts)
2. Get a new credit card for yourself and don't give your wife its information
3. Get a new DEBIT card with limited debit for both your subs (or use a different service with limited debit like Paypal, Steamwallet, etc.)
Problem solved.
Above method works also with children, gambling addicts, etc.

I would make sure she was helped and had no access to drugs. So a lock to access the crowncrates will make sure of that. and yes I would kill the drug dealer too.٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶

Seriously, if this is a problem then crown crates are the least of your worries.
She already has access to everything in the crown store, or buying thousands of crown points. Has it been a problem? Clearly not as you still using your card.

Is buying something from the crownstore gambling? No you pay one price for something you want.
Can you buy the thing you want directly from the crown crates? No, you can spend either 10 dollar or like Deltia 100$ and still not have it.
It's totally DIFFERENT
And a lock or similar does not hurt any of you. But it can help others to prevent spending to much money,
It's not (only) for my wife since I can manage myself. It's about kids and folks that can't.
I just want it to be protected just like you protect *** channels so your kids can't watch.Edited by Knootewoot on December 2, 2016 12:48PM٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶

Yes there is.
- It implies that (some) customers are not actually responsible of their purchases and that some customers should be given power over other customers. I'm in favor of people being free of their actions and be responsible for it.
- Second issue is that it would imply ZOS admitting that the crates are potentially dangerous. I believe the crates aren't great, but if some people are that vulnerable to temptation, then the crates should be the least of their worries. They should take care of themselves - and seek help if needed - rather than asking ZOS to protect them.

Exactly. Lock it down. If she's a 42 year old woman she should show a bit of self restraint anyway, but if that's impossible you do it for her. Even if ZOS complies do you think it will be instantly?
Here's my question ... do all of these people calling ZOS out for feeding into their problems understand that internet gambling - or I guess shopping in this case - exists everywhere? What's next, are you gonna call Amazon and tell them to stop selling shiny objects?
Grow up people.

I can take care of me and my wife and nothing will happen, don't worry.
But I am pretty sure some people will end up paying loads of money for one item they want and still not have it.
But ok go ahead, dismiss an idea to put an optional lock in it. It's a good idea and won't hurt anyone. To bad some people who can take responsible actions for them selves think everybody in the world must be able to do it to. If that was the case here wouldn't be so many drug/alcohol/gambling addicts.

✭Nothing wrong with the suggestion. It's not like it will affect anyone else, so there's not much to complain about.
This is such a reasonable request I am surprised people can find an objection to it. I am fighting the urge to bite as some objections are actually quite judgemental and trollish. Instead I will tell you why I want this feature added.
Sometimes I go out for beers with friends, and at the weekend I come home and decide to play video games, and normally it is a real highlight of my week. I have made so many mistakes because I play when my judgement is impaired. I accidentally deconstruct valuable gear (I love the lock feature!!!) and once I deleted a character because I decided they would be better in another alliance. This has nothing to do with the OP, but if they added a gamble-lock feature I won't have to worry about having an impulsive gambling session when my better judgement is sleeping under a bar stool.
I know I don't want to buy crown crates when I am sober, so I'd like to make the choice to not be able to buy them if I get a drunken idea too.#1 tip (Re)check your graphics settings periodically - especially resolution.7 -

I don't think it's a bad idea at all. I just don't think you're gonna see it any time soon.
And there would be way less addicts if people around them provided the help they need first instead of asking corporations or threatening to kill people like you did earlier. How about a talk with her first?
