<> I'd say let's not overcomplicate the rulebook with something we can't possibly hope to enforce to everyone's satisfaction and keep making our choices with our trust lists. If we want to see account traders red-trusted - let's include users who do that and vice versa <>

I personally dislike account trades, as, at best, they are shortcutting an often (and nowadays even more so) lengthy process of building up an account. What Im not keen on seeing account sales explicitly included in the rules as "allowed", encouraging people to read the rules, and then having a different level red-tagging them for that act. As I said, I find it an unnecessary operative ambiguity.

Even if things stand as they are, it would seem reasonable to me to at least indicate that sold/bought accounts may lead to them being red-tagged. Granted that rules and DT are on two different levels, but they are not on different poles altogether.

Perhaps it should be reworded then, or removed altogether. I don't particularly care either way as long as it doesn't legitimize account trading. But I'm against starting to list red-trust offenses in the rules beyond a generic "trust system is not moderated" statement.

all we need is 1 post from Theymos "Account sales will not get you banned but DT members are against it and will red tag all buyers and sellers"

We already have something like that but the usual suspects conveniently ignore it:

I'm wondering whether you specifically disapprove of account dealers being tagged--not necessarily your opinion on the matter, but whether you'd consider that an inappropriate use of the trust system.

Since some people view account sales as fundamentally untrustworthy, I think it's an appropriate use.
