    it is a big NO . ur account is meant for ur personal use only , there is no difference in trading account and just give it away . in both cases ownership changes .

    here's my appeal: don't let invites become a currency!

    Bad. Your account is your identity, not someone elses.

    Nowadays, there are more trackers than there are members, so if your tracker misbehaves, they get bookmark removed, or worse, URL deleted.

    No, if you don't need the acc just delete it. The same thing with the invites, give them to your friends, people that you really trust.

    If you can't get join a tracker by the rules, you have no right to be a member. Before you've even become a part of the community, you have already disrespected it and misrepresented yourself as someone else. So, anyone who receives an account is a liar who disrespects the rules of trackers. I don't want any part of that. I won't take an account from anyone and I won't give any away.

    Trust me, I have a bunch of accounts that I'd love to give to good users here, but it is against their rules. Just because I'm done with them or don't use them much, doesn't mean that I can now disregard the tracker's rules and giveaway my nicely buffered account.

    I think it's ok, except if account is on community based tracker like ScL.

    Account giveaway is no different from invite giveaways for most trackers. Both giveaways are against most trackers rules, as they want you to invite people you know and trust, not strangers. Its hypocritical to say invite giveaways are fine but account giveaways are not.

    Edit: I'm not saying account giveaways are good, I'm just saying they are no different then invite giveaways, thats all...

    Account GA is very bad thing. dunson already say all that need to say.
    Invites GA is the same. There is no difference (ok there is) but that's against rules too.
    It's nice to help ppl's but giving away just for some kind a rep shit is lame.

    it isn't a good thing.

    1. the account is meant for you. Your inviter had enough trust to invite u; giving away account would be betraying him

    2. the account buffer can be misused by new account holder

    3. new account holder takes on identify of the old one. so if he sells invites...the old ip that is attached with it can get in trouble.
