I would really like a DEV to give us a quick update on this.

Sorry to keep you all waiting, but we will finally be implementing the /random feature in Patch 2.5!

In addition to the Gold Saucer, player run casinos will also be making an appearance I see.

Grekumah rocks!!!! Thanks so much for your quick response!

No need for a /random emote. This is going to be as annoying as $@#!

Wonderful news!

There have been numerous times in the last year where my friends and I wished we had this feature. Speak for yourself.

plz make casino spam a bannable offense

This.
If someone is flooding/spamming in an area it is not my responsibility to turn of shouts or blacklist them just for this. I do not want to turn it on/off all the time depending on the area i am in. LFG Spam in Mor Dhona for WP/Brayflox Speedruns was bad enough, really, but at least i knew back then: when i port to mor dhona i turn shouts of, when im gone i turnem back. Casions will be run everywhere tho.

Adding a block function in chat settings to not see other peoples /random or settings like Group Friends Linkshell etc. as they are for names in character settings would be nice. Just please don't add it to the emote list, because seeing emotes is good (many people hug/wave/poke me instead of /t when passing by), number spam around areas where people run their casinos - and they will run casinos everywhere - is not.

Besides that i just hope for customizable rolls (/random#) and a different text line for /random and random#. If they are the same without saying how many sides the dice has there wont be casinos (which wouldnt be too bad in my personal opinion xD)

I assume /random is going to be aesthetically different from emotes? I ask this because /em allows people to type out manual emotes, so people could very easily cheat the system if it is an emote.

Actually that's exactly what blacklist is for. What a wonderful example!
