Most of the buyers buy it for signature campaign. Most scam are done by newbies with their new created account.

That's true, if you have good, constructive posts then you can have some addon money every month wich isn't bad.

Maybe both, right? These accounts automatically get some trust level as a start!

Not both in any way i guess as you can't participate in any signature campaign if you have any negative trust.

Not buying right now.

Nice to see what my account is worth, but in reality you can't really buy reputation, people will know whoever buys these aren't the original they won't act like them and it will be an obvious farce.

I don't think the buyers buy the accounts for reputation. I think they buy them for the status so that they can enter on the signature campaign and can earn more.

Are the staffs and moderators on this forum all in support of this?

I think no. But its not on the rules that selling account is not allowed.

[quickbits]

Better that it's out in the open where newbies can clearly see what is going on, rather than hidden somewhere off-site. Use your sense when considering trading with others. Use established escrow to reduce the likelihood of being scammed. Certainly don't trust someone because they have a certain rank or post count (why this would make someone more trustworthy is beyond me anyway).


People who are really against this would do better to spend their time posting warnings in the newbie sub-forum rather than trying to stop it. Education > censorship.

This is a real warning and a helpful tip as regards to fake scums buying full member, snr. member accts tand get users ripped of their hard-earned money on the forum as a result of interest trust in people they believe to have so much feedback and trust rating on the forum. I really don't like this motion as the hero members should please go against this. Any newbie can just fall into the trap and lose his/her money. that's why I always use escrow and middlemen to trade.

I think out of every retarded thing this forum lets people do, this takes the cake.
It is interesting to know the account is worth a little bit, but yeah as per my first line.... the forum really needs to re-evaluate. this has nothing to do with free speech etc etc.. its just bullshit is what it is.

I don't know why people refuse to acknowledge that if it was banned here, it would go on elsewhere, and therefore see why it's better to have it here, in the open.

If they disallow it, it will happen anyway through PM's, IRC's, etc. Accepting it as a possibility is easier than trying to fight something that you can't stop

But considering so many noobs that'll fall victim of this kind of stuffs, the forum'a integrity will begin to drag. And that's  not good
