You guys are hillarious.  And you are right to ridicule the way Steamingoff uses "gay".  Nevertheless, I think going down the rabbit-hole of ridiculing Steamingoff for his blockheaded use of language distracts from the serious point this thread makes: ie, it's okay to purchase a trusted account, and it's okay for trusted members to farm/sell/buy accounts, but somehow it's not okay to purchase trust directly.  I really have a hard time seeing how the latter is any more problematic for the trust system than the former. 

(Note: I've never bought/sold/farmed accounts or trust, but I have been abused by an account seller who is on default trust (for now).  As far as I can tell, this was in part motivated by said account-seller's market interests in driving up the purchase price for farmed accounts.  However, I won't be purchasing any accounts to try to undo the wrong which was done to me (this would be submitting to blackmail).  But this experience has highlighted for me how much shady-dealings there are around here in terms of the trust system and account purchases/sales.  That's one of the reasons why the satire in this thread resonates so strongly with me.)
