Newbies don’t buy forum account from anyone.

[SuperBitMan]

According to the rules of this forum you are free to buy bitcointalk forum account from another member in this forum and it’s not against the rules of this forum.
But don’t believe that rule, the act of buying account from another member in this forum is actually seen as illegal by a lot of members in this forum and when you are caught for account buying many DT members will give the account you bought a negative feedback and that will destroy what ever you wanted to do with the account because no one will trust doing any business or deal with you since it carries a negative feedback.

If anyone PM you that you can buy their account and no one will know about it, don’t accept because by your writing people will know it has changed hands and the account may have said something a long time ago and you may count it later without you knowing and you may be caught, you don’t share same thought with the real owner so you will surely counter each other and you cannot permanently delete something you have posted here in this forum because anyone can see all you have deleted, so don’t waste your money by buying account in this forum, grow your account by yourself patiently.

Well true It's insignificant to buy another user's account here in this forum and those that are selling accounts should always consider being careful because you might end up selling it to someone with bad intentions most especially reputable accounts they can often be used to scam a user if care and proper observation isn't taken.....

​That said I believe the forum is an open community and I can still remember a time I asked if someone can get scammed in this forum and the opinions I got were all related to yes. So yeah newbies should all be very careful because getting into such agreements can either get the account tagged like OP just said or banned and both the money you use to purchase the account and the account it self whould be gone. So yeah we should all be guided by the rules and learn to do things the right way.....

Good advice for newbies.

It would be good if newbies can visit this thread of which is old but which is still very important for newbies.

Sales of bitcointalk account must be discouraged

[Catenaccio]

According to the rules of this forum you are free to buy bitcointalk forum account from another member in this forum and it’s not against the rules of this forum.

They will try it because it's cheap.

Assuming that they spend $200 for a Senior member account or $500 for a Hero member or Legendary member account, they believe that they can use bought account for signature campaigns several weeks and get their initial fund back. It's their belief while with merit system, bought accounts have no chance to be accepted in signature campaigns, except in bounties that are useless in getting money.

But it is still choice of many people who can not write good posts and don't have friends to support them with merit.

It's unfair that merit system fails so shit posters still ranking up to Sr. member, Hero to Legendary and along their ways, they already got a lot of money in many signature campaign weeks.

Shitposters are shitposters with bought accounts or with farm accounts that received merit from friends.

OP, is it true that you have a memory lapse every sixteen days? Weren't you the author of a similar topic with a slightly changed name, but with one topic about buying and selling accounts? Why raise the same questions over and over again? Beginners, if they are real, will not buy an account, but having bought and agreed to the deception, they will be caught later, or maybe not. The fact is that you have been concerned about this issue twice, or maybe even before, and you are raising this topic.

18. Having multiple accounts and account sales are allowed, but account sales are discouraged.

If you are caught selling your account you may likely get a negative tag even though it’s not against the forum rules.
Where do we stand in this rule.

[Supreme Donvic]

I remember when I started posting newly on this forum someone PM me and was trying to bring me to a discussion of account buying and when I noticed he was trying to lead me to such discussion I stopped discussing with him and I know some newbies back then or now have had same experience and may have even fallen victim, I don't support account buying also in this forum, just imagine a trusted legendary member decides to sell his account to someone who is a scammer believe me he will use the account to scam so many people, so this is one of the reasons I don't support account buying.
OP you did well by creating this thread, newbies should read and be informed, they should understand they will surely be caught if they get involved in account buying and again it will be better that rule concerning account buying and selling should be reviewed and changed.

It seems you are actually senseless without proper education, are you?
If you actually have a proper education and you actually read, comprehend and understand you would have seen the difference between the thread i created on metal board and this one i just created on beginners & Help board.
I will advise you go back to school, education is very important it helps prevent people from sounding stupid in public.

You should not turn a blind eye to such offers, but tell the community about this seller if you, like many here, strive to be useful to everyone. By hiding this seller, you can create a novice competitor who has bought an account, who will be more cunning in participating in the signature of companies, since basically they buy accounts, as a rule, for earnings.

There are topics about a seller who secretly offered newbies to buy accounts, but now he has been marked with a negative tag, although I am sure that neither the tag nor the desire for profit will stop him.

Are you going to tell me about education, son?😂🤮

[Awaklara]

I think those who intend to buy accounts are not newbies in the forum, but rather long-time users who have problems with their old accounts. Those who come for business purposes will definitely build their own accounts, whereas those who buy accounts, I believe, do so for signature campaigns.

Although there is a possibility that newbies come to the forum because they are interested in making money from signature campaigns, I am not sure their interest would immediately be directed towards buying accounts, unless there are other users who intentionally send messages offering accounts. A newbie's mindset can change.

.. so don’t waste your money by buying account in this forum, grow your account by yourself patiently.

I agree it may be hard, but it's worth it. You can't shortcut your way to a higher rank by buying a higher account because it's not you; you will have to pattern your writing and thinking to that bought account, and the worst thing is if you bought an account that was active in another local language, and you don't know how to speak that language.
You will eventually be caught, and it's just a waste of money.

To me buying of account is a sign of laziness and I believe definitely what you said is what is gonna happen when you buy an account bigger than your level. The time you spent here determine Your level of understanding/experience, communication, knowledge, interaction and commitment. So when such account is bought with such knowledge and there is no concrete information to backup the original owner, then it easy to identify the man behind the mask. Just emagine buying a reputable and well know account maybe from a local board, and suddenly the buyer without proper knowledge of where and how the original user May be operating it, may go straight to his local board and be posting in his own language or even creating unnecessary thread that will implicate him or her. It will easily attract attention and such account will be reported and when it's tagged it's a waste of money and I believe your money will not be refunded neither.

Sales of bitcointalk account must be discouraged

Buying an account is like buying a university degree without going through lectures and examination. A newbie who buys a high ranking account would be shitposting since he lacks the knowledge of Bitcoin or the forum. Newbies should dedicate their time to learn rather than going through shortcuts which might not end up well. High ranking accounts could also be used for scam since they have build reputation on the forum. Selling of account should be highly discouraged because it has more disadvantaged than advantage.

[joniboini]

I wouldn't equate a forum account with a university degree, but I agree that not having the expected knowledge and whatnot on a high ranking-account is suspicious. Then again, I think it's rare that someone who buys a high ranking account to not read a thing or two, especially about the account past posting history.

Personally I've seen less account sales here, or at least nor explicitly as before. People will scrutinize even harder if you're buying account with a decent amount of merits to begin with. Not to mention other reputations stuff like trading history and whatnot.

[Outhue]

Buying someone's else account is like walking on another person's footprint, trying to make it yours, you see how difficult that is? It is not even after you have a negative trust before people will not want to do business with you, some people on here knows how to sight and account that's been taken over by someone else.

Stop trying to wear another person's identity, it is not that hard to build your own account from scratch to any rank that you want, just have fun while doing it, in no time you will rank up, I don't see any reason why people will buy another person's account, it makes no sense, in the future if anything happens you can't proof that the account belongs to you originally.

[Aanuoluwatofunmi]

The forum is being moderated and does not appear as other social media platforms we randomly use, buying of account may not go against the rules here as well, but it is not something found worthy of us to do, because it shows an act of dishonesty in making claim over what does not belong to you despite buying it, but you cant come publicly to announce same, its even more better to have alt than to buy account.

Any newbie try to buy account from anyone in the forum is a lazy individual and if anything happen to the account it is the person fault because it is clearly that things will be different when you buy the account, the way of your interactions, the way you write and other things are going to be different and the account will get a negative tag because that is not good, instead of thinking about buying account it will be a good idea if a newbie create a new account, the reason why some people think buying account is the best option is because of how they are going to get a merit, and for me merit is not a hard thing because if you make a good post and good interaction you are going to get a merit and within a months you will be able to rank up.

[Creeper0]

Although buying and selling accounts is legal in forums, I do not support it. There are several reasons for this - one is to give high positions to incompetent people and make the merit system ineffective.

We usually give merit to recognize good posts and the merit also recognizes his talent. When someone is buying an account with merit, he is also trying to buy the talent of another person, we know that it is never possible to buy the talent of a person. I think this is contrary to nature.

Even the merits given for a person's talent and talented posts increase the rank of that account, it basically recognizes his experience, hard work and talent. When you are an inexperienced person and are sitting in a high position by buying an account in exchange for money without working hard, then you will not have posts of that quality. Rather, an incompetent person is sitting in a high position, which is not positive at all. The achievements you are able to achieve as a result of hard work are your worthy position.

Lazy for the fact that they don't have patience to build their account. There are lots of things to learn on their journey if they just try to build their account from scratch.

But unfortunately those people doing that are actually want to fasten up their earnings. They try to shortcut everything just to join those available sig campaigns in this forum.

This is the reason why we have seen some obvious flaws on those bought accounts, since they didn't even manage to learn at least the basic things like reading up the forum rules and other important things.

[YellowSwap]

Here is my thoughts on this.

If you bought an account, make sure it's public, like bring it to the forum and let it be know that the older user decided to let to of the account for you, many will call this stupid but it's a sincere solution to avoid any suspicion.

There is a thread on this forum that is all about sold, hacked or stolen accounts, believe me, once there is a strange log off and log in time there is a target on your account already.

I've also noticed that this forum favours the honest ones, since it allows buying of accounts which I am against for sure, I don't see anything wrong with coming out and said you just bought the account.

People called it stupid, I call it honesty.

Even if it’s against the rules of this forum, for me it’s inappropriate to buy account from someone because i know that I can’t write exactly like the real owner of the account, my way of writing will change. So it’s better i grow my  account step by step, build my name,  earn trust  and know how this forum system works. Most times it’s very tiring and slow but sincerely that’s the only way i can last in this forum. Nobody should deceive you that buying account from someone is more fast than building yours. Because at last you may end up losing everything.
So, buying account from someone isn’t just about trust issues alone, it affects your learning ability, if you grow account your self, you will know how to interact with people, and build reputation. But if you end up buying account you will skip all this process, which can make you end up making mistakes.
