There are a lot of similar accounts in the Indonesian and Filipino local sections. Some are not even shy and do not delete posts that clearly say that the owner of the account has changed. But as long as there are no clear rules on whether such accounts should be tagged, no one takes any action. Of course, these accounts are harmless on the one hand, but given that so many newbies are trying to raise their accounts to participate in subscription companies, the participation of purchased or hacked accounts should be limited.

Yea, and that is why the unofficial rules states that account buying is not a crime but it is discouraged. If account ownership is easily swapped, there will be no room for reputation.
Why I also agree with you that most of these accounts are harmless is because people hardly fall victim of scam. In the early years when trust was newly introduced and effective, there was little/no exchanges were bitcoin could be bought. Today, everyone knows where to buy bitcoin and the tendency of scam is therefore reduced.

Where I will always be interested is when such accounts begin to shitpost, spam or shil scam projects, then they should be boldly tagged.
