It is split quite evenly, yes. Unfortunately it's going to take a while to think of a solution that will satisfy most people.
Well I would think a good starting point would be to get rid of selling accounts. Wouldn't that put reasonable doubt into the trust equation?
How would this help and how is it enforcable? Even if account sales were banned people would just sell them offsite and it will give others a false sense of security.
Problem is, how do you moderate account selling?
Ban when IP changes? Nope. No way in hell, people have IP changes all the time.
And in reality, that's really the only way. There's no easy way to track accounts changing hands, unless you're the NSA.
It's not and would be incredibly difficult and a waste of time to police, hence why it is currently allowed.

Well, IMHO, I suppose that if everybody starts to put accounts sellers & traders as exclusions on their own trust lists maybe this could try to discourage such activities.
Just food for thought
You're free to do that but unless they've demonstrated untrustworthy behaviour I don't think they should be treated this way as account selling isn't against the rules. In fact, BadBear recently added Quickseller to his trust list.
Personally, I'm not against account selling if people involved behave responsably and i can live with it till such practice is allowed by forum rules. However, i'm not sure if i could trust a user who engagé in such trades specially if such people engage in trading hacked account or used to sell it to scammers, etc. I don't judge Others if they may trust such people since they may know them better.
I just put forward my tought.

To be fair, I think he deserved it. Quickseller has been looking out for hacked accounts, scams and has been leaving good feedback at all times.
In effect such a type of situation may worry me a lot since i cannot say if if i could trust a user engaged in trading hacked accounts or selling accounts to scammers. Just as i may not trust someone who give out too many good feedbacks (but maybe He's only a lucky trader who meet only honest people). However, I was not to single out him...i was just thinking about the situation since infact is all a matter of trust.

I don't dispute that. He seems to know the rules better than most as well.
As I said before myself, I have noting against the rules or Quickseller in particular, but i think everyone should reflect on how much you can trust people engaged in account trading in particular if they are trading hacked accounts or selling established account to scammers or leaving too many good feedbacks. IMHO, I'm not so confident to be able to trust enough the judgement of such a kind of users.
