If you are in for the fun, you will never suffer any negative consequences, the problem is the addiction and delusion of making insane profits just because some guy made a thread here showing massive wins. It's not going to happen, most likely you will never hit the jackpot, of course this doesn't mean that you shouldn't say positive about it, but you have to stay realistic too.
Gambling for fun? Most people who was gambling for fun has suffered this domino effect :
1. Was Gambling for fun
2. Saw some people won jackpot or massive wins
3. Continued gambling for fun, but hope he/she could win jackpot or massive wins
4.

5. Now he/she addicted in gambling.
Yes, in some cases that's true, but not always. I think we shouldn't avoid something completely only because some people when doing it wrong way become addicted.
Same "domino effect" as you call it may be applied to alcohol drinking for example:
1. Was drinking just small amounts of wine or beer on occasions.
2. Saw some people drink heavier and "have more fun"
3. Continued drinking small amounts of wine or beer on occasions, but sometimes was drinking heavier liking it more and more.
4.

5. Now he/she is an alcoholic.
