I don't agree with this opinion.

Account sales won't be done publicly. Regardless of whether they receive a negative trust rating or not.

The reason to buy accounts is to cheat on bounties, promoting scam and creating a wrong illusion of 'trustworthiness'.

Those people can't allow to have a 'Sold account' tag to be seen on their profile.


So, while very few people would actually do it publicly, exactly those are the people who do not indent to cheat / scam.
And exactly only them get punished.

So.. either tag everyone, or no one.
Tagging no one is obviously not an option tho..



[...]  Because he said that posting on this forum requires a ranking member to be trusted. [...]

Exactly this is the problem.

Instead of getting trusted on this forum, you tried to deceive others into believing you are a trustworthy user..

If a trusted member 'is needed', then you - as a newbie - obviously were the wrong person. So why trying to cheat and buy an account to create the illusion to be trusted while you are obviously not ?


IMO the tag is absolutely justified.
The fact, that he admitted the reason for buying an account was to deceive others into believing he is trustworthy, makes it 100% justified.
