This could have been an interesting discussion if the accounts he is trying to sell were revealed by you.

Yeah, I'd love to know that myself. And I must've missed his threads, because it looks like I never tagged him (now fixed).

I would like to know if it does not violate the rules of this forum?
Is this not a fraud?

It doesn't violate any rules of the forum, but as has been mentioned account selling is definitely not approved by many members here who've seen what account sales have done to the forum and what uses high-ranked, highly-trusted accounts can be put to. I'm not going to write a huge essay here, because I've written it so many times, but basically account sales can and have been used to scam and shitpost with. Those are the main concerns.

It may not be an outright fraud, but account dealing is certainly an untrustworthy thing to do, because it can be very harmful. People who sell accounts are only thinking of themselves and generally don't care that they're enabling scammers and spammers--so they deserve red trust, which I'm more than happy to provide.

In my opinion they are good for the environment of the forum. Filling up the gap left by the admins and mods. So if anyone should be tagged red here are these who do little to nothing to retrieve locked-hacked accounts.
