What a bunch of nonsense.You are trying to enforce a rule which was at that date not activ.
Buying and selling accounts where in 2015 and before allowed and massivly practised even from most old DT1 members.
At that time noone gave a fuck about plagiarism.It can be found on any forum.And finding one post which got copy pasted years ago is enough to destroy a DT1 account into a scammer account is amazing.
And also i do not belive in coincidences.Its funny these coincidences of high ranked people getting banned always happen when speaking up against a specific group.
Suchmoon already proofed in the past to digg in peoples history deep even 5 years past to find anything to get somebody punished when having a dispute with him.
No, everyone still cared about plagiarism, it was still a ban if caught, but it wasn't very commonly done by non newbie accounts. Account buying in selling in 2015 was still frowned upon, but less so than now. Back before sig ads were as prevalent people were afraid that account buyers would use their accounts to scam. The more recent wave of resentment for account traders came about due to spam more than anything else and ended up getting bundled with being untrustworthy.
Not that I care one way or another about account buying/selling, especially since Bill Gator didn't have feedback from before they allegedly bought the account, but I don't think there is a statute of limitations on untrustworthy behavior. As I said before, its not like Bill bought an account with feedback already, so I personally don't think it says anything about their trustworthiness, but rules are applied on an account wide basis, otherwise the ban appeals would go back to trying the, "My dad's uncle's cousin's carpet cleaner was in my room the other day, and they made this post for me, pls unban me"
