RS9 Responsible Gaming: Limits, Pauses and Support

Choose the session length in advance and use a timer when helpful. Include the time spent browsing the lobby, building a fantasy team and reviewing results—not only active rounds.

Reaching the limit is the planned finish. Close the session instead of negotiating for extra time after an outcome.

Treat the budget as the cost of entertainment, not a target to grow. Outcomes are uncertain and play should never be presented as income.

Pause immediately when one signal appears. Step away from the screen, speak with someone you trust and do not return simply because a new activity or reward appears.

A reward, leaderboard or match alert should not reopen a session that has reached its planned end. Mute promotional notifications during a pause and avoid checking the lobby only to see whether a new activity appeared.

Use the same rule after both positive and negative outcomes: the time and entertainment-budget limits remain unchanged. A consistent finish is easier to follow than a limit that depends on the latest result. If the plan repeatedly changes during play, choose a longer pause and ask support about available account controls.

Remove shortcuts, mute promotional notifications and avoid checking time-sensitive activities during the break. A pause works best when the next action is decided in advance.
