1916's Commitment to Healthy Gaming
1916 believes every user deserves to enjoy entertainment in a safe and controlled environment. Responsible gaming is not just a slogan — it is a genuine commitment we uphold across every aspect of this platform.
We provide self-control tools, clear information, and support channels to help you stay in control at all times. 1916's goal is to ensure your entertainment experience remains enjoyable without affecting your personal life, finances, or relationships.
If at any point you feel that gaming is starting to have a negative impact on your daily life, we encourage you to take immediate action using the guidance on this page.
Warning Signs to Watch Out For
Recognising the early signs of risky behaviour is the first step to staying in control. Take note if you experience any of the following:
Using gaming as a way to escape problems, stress, or persistent feelings of sadness.
Using money meant for daily expenses, borrowing from others, or selling assets to fund gaming.
Feeling anxious or uncomfortable when trying to cut down or stop playing altogether.
Neglecting family, work, or social responsibilities due to spending too much time playing.
If you recognise any of the above signs in yourself or someone close to you, please take steps to seek help or make use of the self-control tools provided by 1916.
How to Set Smart Time and Budget Limits
One of the most effective ways to keep your gaming responsible is to set clear limits before you start. Here is some practical guidance:
- Set a fixed budget: Decide how much MYR (RM) you are comfortable spending each week or month on entertainment — and stick to that amount, no exceptions.
- Set a time limit: Decide how many hours a day you will set aside for gaming. Use a timer or phone reminder to help you keep track.
- Don't chase your losses: Setting a limit means accepting a loss without trying to "win back" your money by continuing to play.
- Review your records: 1916 provides a full transaction history that you can review at any time to monitor your spending patterns.
Remember — gaming is a form of entertainment, not a source of income. Approaching it with a healthy mindset will make for a more enjoyable experience in the long run.
Self-Exclusion Tools Available at 1916
The 1916 platform offers several self-control tools that you can use at any time through your account:
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your account to control how much money you load onto the platform.
Request a cooling-off period to temporarily suspend access to your account whenever you feel you need a break.
If you need a longer break, you can apply for self-exclusion to block your account for an extended period.

Work-Life Balance & Seeking Professional Help
Healthy gaming goes hand in hand with a balanced life. Make sure your other hobbies and activities still get the attention they deserve — time with family, physical activity, work, and social connections are the foundations of wellbeing and should never be overlooked.
If you or someone you know is struggling with a gambling problem, we encourage you to seek professional support. Reaching out to a trusted person, counsellor, or mental health professional is a brave and important step.
The 1916 support team is also on hand to help you access self-control tools or point you towards the right resources. You don't have to face this alone.
