The thing you should understand about hypotheticals is they're not a substitute for the equal sign. When I present you with the hypothetical "why make murder illegal," I do not mean to suggest that !(proscribing account sales) = !(proscribing murder). There are, indeed, differences.

The text you have quoted was a response to TL;DR: "account sales are a necessary evil, better than they happen here than elsewhere."
If you feel that account sales are desirable, like gun sales in your example, feel free to explain why.

That said, a forum created to advance Bitcoin is not necessarily the best place to sell guns.
Or to double as an online scam bazaar.
Or as a casino.
Or as an MLM ponzi promotion vehicle.
Or a banner ad platform.

If you & thermos didn't, in all your wisdom, endow it with all these trappings of petty scumbaggery, account sales would not be an issue.
See how you can solve a problem by thinking outside the box?

Shut your crap already, this is a private forum not something to "advance Bitcoin"

Dead wrong, Friend. It is a forum started to advance Bitcoin.

Satoshi didn't start this place for you to scratch out pennies by whoring out your signature, and then lose those pennies to other, slightly smarter scumbags in the gambling section.
Fuck you
