Is "account farming" frowned upon.

Fair points but I still think it should be discouraged.
The line breaks are a remnant of writing mobile
friendly plain text emails.  I still like it.  Sorry
if it bothers you.

Account farming for the sole purpose to sell the accounts and take loans from every account with no intention to repay is definitely frowned upon. It's necessary to check the accounts that are offered as collateral as that itself solves all the doubts. In fact there are many things that are frowned upon but still allowed here.

@jonald_fyookball: Agree with your post. The main reason why account farming is allowed is because of the trust factor which shouldn't be dependent on the rank but it has many a times back fired as well. Account farmers should be discouraged as except spamming, they aren't beneficial to the community. It's like the same person posting in each section of the forum under different accounts.

That's another good identification.

Also, even if some people can write high quality posts under
multiple usernames, condoning it will attract others who can't.

It's just like laws against texting while driving.   I might be
a skilled enough driver to do it relatively safely, but not
everyone is, so I'd rather it be illegal.
