we all know forum accounts are sold and bought here frequently and we all have differnt opinions on it.Some of us are in favour of it and some completly oppose it while others have neutral views.
I have a suggestion that might go well with everyone.Disallow selling of account below Sr.Member.This will reduce the number of creating multiple accounts for account farming to aome extent.Whats your thoughts?

Banning account trading isn't enforceable. As have been mentioned throughout the thread, there is no 100% verifiable way to prove original ownership of an account, nor any way to stop anyone from transferring over "ownership" of an account to another. Unless you can provide us a means to employ fingerprint verification, retinal scanning, DNA verification, or a combination thereof as a way to access the accounts, then your suggestion is pretty much meaningless.

If you're still having trouble understanding, then consider the case of MMORPGs. High value accounts are sold everyday despite the various efforts made by large (and medium-sized) companies to hinder the act. If account trading in general can be stopped in an efficient and non-disruptive way, then it would have been done a long time ago.
