Rule Change

[Rex]

Lately I've been noticing a rise of cracked accounts being sold on this forum. It's quite obvious that some users are selling cracked og accounts (Judging by the migration dates on the sellers threads) and no staff seems to be taking action against it.

My suggestion is for the staff to:
Remove or start taking action for rule 9.2: "Unmigrated, cracked, stolen and non-full access alt accounts are strictly prohibited." (Excluded the cape code part.)

To add I do acknowledge that if this rule is to be removed it would be unfair for people that have already been banned for cracking accounts. If it's possible they could get unbanned otherwise you should start taking action against this issue.

By the way I'm not completely against people that are cracking and reselling accounts but I just think it is a dirty way to make money in my opinion.

Do not change it, take action.

Have you reported these cracked accounts? If not, what are you complaining about? if you have, stand by for us to come across the reports in the endless mountain of them that we seem to have.

Where can I report them? Plus what do you mean by reporting the cracked accounts?, I'm referring to the users selling the cracked accounts.

If we get proof, we remove them. We can't remove threads because of migration dates and things like that, we need solid evidence. For example sometimes the seller says it's cracked and I get the screenshot sent to me by someone and I remove the thread because of that.

I meant that, my bad. It wasnt the most clear phrasing. apart from that, it's as Doge said.

How do you know it's a cracked account? I bought some full access of people and some were from 2010 and some 2016.

It's not are job to report them, we are just here to buy and sell stuff smoothly, Ajdin got a staff team to assist us and make sure everything is going smoothly

You got that a bit backwards. We rely heavily on reports from users to detect things. This is a forum with thousands of people, tens of thousands of threads and in the hundreds of thousands of posts. it is absolutely unreasonable to expect that we manually scour them.

If you believe something is breaking the rules, report it. If you do not report it and staff do not find, you do not have something to complain about. We've got far too many other things to worry about than digging through the forums and checking all content against the rules.

Yeah. With 2500 posts every 24hr and roughly 200 threads. We'll go on and check every thread. We'd need a team of 20 full time moderators which is just not affordable and inefficient. A forum is ran by the community, not me telling a entire staff member to check every post.
