Bingo is unlike other forms of gambling in that bingo players become a part of a bingo community. Visit some of the online bingo sites and compare them with online casino sites.

Players are encouraged to play in the chat rooms with special games and special promotions. These are features that you don’t find in online casinos where many players just play their games. Some may use the chat room but many don’t. There are no community aspects even mentioned in online casinos.

These and many of the other social aspects of the church basement bingo are mimicked in online bingo sites because this is one of the things that people expect from bingo. These social aspects are what players associate with bingo. There is a bingo community whether it is online or land-based.
