We had this discussion about consistency vs. treating each case individually when the situation happened with iluvbitcoins.  I meant it when I said that the little voice in my head was telling me not to tag him because he wasn't the average scummy account seller.  That same voice was telling me not to tag grtthegreat in this case, based upon his reputation and his promise not to engage in this shit anymore.  I appreciate the community's input here, whether it's critical or supportive, because hopefully it'll lead to a consensus on how these cases should be dealt with.

So what is the responsibility of an account seller? In this case grtthegreat sold an account and that account proceeded to ask for a loan. Weirdly for a lower amount than the sale price, so probably not to immediately scam but perhaps to build reputation. At any rate, that's highly suspicious behavior so either grtthegreat sold it to some untrustworthy shithead or didn't sell at all. TBH I can't imagine what a responsible account sale would look like. It's 2019. Don't sell accounts. End of.

Remember the flack I got and trust ratings that were being thrown around when I merely took Gleb's account off the market? I'm still amazed I was able to avoid red trust but Bruno wasn't so lucky despite the preceding reputation. By that measure grtthegreat should be red up the wazoo, as well as any account he touched as a collateral. BTW I would gladly take on red trust even now, if that helps make things equal and fair for everyone. I know what I did and why I did it so that doesn't bother me at all.

Me salty? Can't possibly be...  Smiley

Edit: in case the smiley at the end doesn't convey my point sufficiently - it's not an attack on you, The Pharmacist, personally. You've been consistent and deliberate with your ratings as far as I can see and I don't expect one person to tag absolutely every case of certain actions. There's like 200+ DT2 members now though, so come on y'all pussyfooting (no offense to my dear gangmates) cowards...
