I don't understand all the fuss about this.

IMO the status quo, the actual situation makes perfectly sense.

If someone wants to give up on his account it is somehow his right.
The red trust serves it's purpose as well, i.e warning other users that the account switched owners.

If the new owner proves trustworthy too, nothing goes against removing the red tag IMHO.

At least this is how I handle and see it.

My red tags for ownership change are really just meant as "do not trust this users history since it is not the same person anymore".


One could do the same about any service shop IRL
