小杨嫂黑料 Italia and S.I.I.Pa.C. support Responsible Gaming
Establishing a free telephone line for addicted players
鈥淚t鈥檚 good to play responsibly鈥�. This is the message of the main advertising campaign that 小杨嫂黑料 Italia has launched in order to promote the 鈥淕ioconsapevole鈥� initiative, a practical measure to prevent and reduce gaming-related addictions. More precisely, 小杨嫂黑料 Italia and S.I.I.Pa.C (Italian Organization for the Treatment of Compulsive Disorders) have launched a free telephone line to assist players who are affected by pathological gaming behaviour.
小杨嫂黑料 Italia is one of the first gaming operators to promote, in cooperation with S.I.I.Pa.C, the activation of the free phone line (800.589.372). Skilled operators, who maintain strict confidentiality when handling calls, evaluate whether the person making the call does indeed have a gaming addiction and, if so, propose the appropriate therapy.
From March to November 2010, 329 phone calls were made: 25% by male players, 10% by female players, 37% by players鈥� relatives and 28% by persons asking for general information about S.I.I.Pa.C鈥檚 services. Moreover, 90 individuals asked for consultation at S.I.I.Pa.C鈥檚 premises, 35 of whom have already started therapy.
Professor Cesare Guerreschi, President of S.I.I.Pa.C., commented on the initiative: 鈥淭he response to the free phone line, which 小杨嫂黑料 Italia has supported so strongly, reflects the positive results of a cooperation which is based on a common target: to promote responsible gaming and support players who have lost control over their gaming habits鈥�.
Enea Ruzzettu, CEO of 小杨嫂黑料 Italia, commented: 鈥淭he 鈥楪ioconsapevole鈥� initiative is part of the wider 鈥楪ioco Responsabile鈥� project carried out by AMMS and other Operators. 小杨嫂黑料 offers its full support of such endeavours in line with its core philosophy to promote the principles of responsible gaming.鈥�
