I don't know who you're referring to, exactly.  Of course the seller is going to hype
up the account(s) he's selling, but if you'd actually been a member here and actually read
some threads, you'd know exactly the extent to which account buying is frowned upon here.

Now that you have red trust from Lauda, it's going to be very difficult for you to earn through
signature campaigns, but you've probably realized this by now.  It's too late, but you just jumped
in head first with little knowledge of how things work around here.

What is respected is contributing useful posts and building up accounts from scratch, and not
just coming here and earning money.
