I don't think they should be allowed to sell them... problem is you have no way of stopping it, unless you see a thread... even then its still hard to enforce.

Due to the fact there are many members that fish out sketchy behavior, I think it would be fine. The benefit is greater than the risk.

I think they should be.
what reason does anyone have to sell their account.. well I mean what reason does anyone have to buy one without being upto no good.

Probably It's not a good thing to do , but the only logical explanation for account buying could be signature campaigns because It takes very long to get Sr. status for yourself while you can buy and start at your preferred campaign. Also knowing that people buy accounts we need to use trusted mediates on this forum.

You can't do anything but wait out your ban. Trust me, messages threads or posts complaining about it will be futile.

OK, but not told how much time to wait. It's terrifying to wait it's not known what.

Does it not tell you how long you were banned for? Contact Badbear and ask nicely but don't spam him if he doesn't reply. Usually the bans are a week or two but they could be more.

If there is no time like 2 weeks or 1 month then it is perm ban.

You can help? Where to find the link to the description of the procedure of appeal against the ban?

I was banned. I did not create bad posts. Please let me know how to remove the ban from my account.

I sent many messages asking for help to theymos, but he never replied. Help me, please. I don't know what to do.

PM a staff member, usually they can help

It should but there would be no way to ever control it so why single out people when it happens all the time? I personally would ban it but it would be pointless.

Depends how much you value your time. You'd have to deal with the newbie posting limits as well. Buying them would be easier and save you several months as long as you're willing to front the cash.

What is the minimum amount of time you could go from newb to full member in?

You need to post in 9 two week periods, so if you created a new account today you'd be a Full Member on 16th of Sept providing you made enough posts obviously.

Thank you. I was just trying to establish if it's profitable to buy accounts rather than just level one. It is slightly.

About 4 months.

So there's only about one months difference between buying an account and selling your sig (before breaking even) and levelling one.

I suppose it's easier though...

Hi,
In my opinion trading accounts on btctalk must be forbidden. There is no more newbie prison so there is no reason to trade your account. It is for sure a head start for the scammers. If some one is offering his account or buying accounts a moderator must ban him forever.

It isn't only for scammers, you need high lvl account for signature posting too.

Ban them so they can just go buy another account? Probably 99% of accounts bought are done so for signature deals. You don't need to buy an account to scam.
