Default Isn't This Disallowed?
http://www.redflagdeals.com/forums/s...d.php?t=422520

i believe he/she had another thread selling the same thing with almost 4 pages about a week ago, because i was the one who told him/her that selling steam accounts wasn't allowed on rfd. i tried searching up that thread, but it's gone, whether it was locked or just deleted i don't know, but this person started up a new one.

i'm not trying to get anybody in trouble or anything, but i just thought selling steam accounts was disallowed (considering i tried selling mine before and i got my thread locked). i'm just wondering why this person was able to even have FS: STEAM ACCOUNT in the thread title and no admin picked it up?

anyway.. reported it, hopefully i can find out whether or not you can really sell a steam account, because i have one that i desperately want to get rid of ):

The selling of any account is not allowed. Especially world of warcraft imo. The original owner can get there account back with little information. So the buyer initially gets screwed.

that's true. my friend got his account hijacked by some other person and all he had to do was send an email to steam, along with pics of his cd key and box, and he got his account back.

did you even read the post properly? i said that there were 4 pages in the last thread.. which was confusing because selling steam accounts aren't allowed on this site so i was surprised that this person was able to keep bumping this thread without getting his thread locked by admins..

i never mentioned anything about a scam.

why the sudden outburst in random posts in the BST section.. trying to get more posts?
