[] The fact that you seek protection by the rule you deem bad has been pointed out several times. []
And several times I've replied:
Buying and selling accounts has nothing to do with being able to start a brand new one. Which this one is. It was neither bought nor sold.
How is it you still manage to miss that?
Your reason to have an alt is different from the reaons of others. Reasons that are not necessarily malicious. E.g. earning money from ones posts. IIRC Salty even gave a good explanations why signature campaigns in a sense make scams with "trusted" accounts (as in higher rank as well as in trading feedback received) more difficult and expensive.
After Quickseller posted with his alt, ACCTSeller, that there are no rules against selling forum accounts, I replied with "This is why we can't have nice things." Quickseller wanted to vent, and so he did. I've explained to him, again, why he's an ass.
Some folks need to hear shit many times before they catch on, I don't hold that against them & oblige.
Get it? 'Coz I'll explain it again, I don't mind.
Now either explain how I "seek protection by the rule [ I ] deem bad," or stop shitting up this thread.

With alt accounts essentially comes the trade with accounts. IMHO you cant have one without the other. If I am allowed to have a second account why should I not be allowed to use the 17th account of someone else. An account they no longer need or want. Since building an account takes time its only natural that I pay a certain amount for the time someone else invested in the account.
The reason might be as simple as Im spoiled and I dont want to be hindered by the limitations of a new account.
Yes, bought accounts might get used to scam someone, but thats true regardless if there is a rule against it or not. "Self-made" alt accounts can be used for scams as well. You either limit every person to a single account or they will get traded.
How do you suggest to solve this problem in a way that is decreasing the chance of successful scams? By an admin saying in some thread that its bad?
