    You want me to argue with you? I don't see the point in that, that's all. I'm not offended (the avatar change was meant as a joke).

    Here are the facts from my POV:
    - you're a mod, not me - I think you can ban me
    - doesn't matter how good my arguments are, the trade section isn't gonna be removed (sure I can post how trading is bad, but it's been posted by numerous people here, most of which know more than me and/or just know how to tell it better)
    I'm back. The downside is that I'm also old now.

    Fixed that for you. Funny how you overlooked the account trading here.
    I didn't overlook anything; it was a generalization of the section, nothing more. I seldom feel the need to point out the obvious.

    Well you pointed out how it started out but it has undergone an unwelcome mutation since then and is no longer simply a place for trading invites.

    Given that this thread was really for research purposes rather than for change purposes maybe we should have another poll to find out whether the members here approve of account trading - which is really why the tracker staff think this place is scum city. I recently spotted a thread where some asshole had 53 buffered accounts up for trade....yes 53!!! Now I know that's probably the exception but to allow something like that is just unbelievable. This isn't directed at you Skizo and I know you probably can't do anything about it even if you wanted to but isn't it about time that common sense took over. Someone really needs to have a long hard think about whether FST should continue to allow this sort of abuse. I still can't believe it even though I saw it....53 accounts!!!

    That same trader has now put up another thread with another 17 accounts to trade. That is so fucked up. People like that should just not be allowed in the BT community.

    If the poll has served its purpose then the thread/poll should be closed
