This has been in the forum rules for more than 3 years, but since apparently nobody reads the rules, and it's still happening, it needs its own thread.

Concerning MMOG accounts and characters:
You may not trade, sell, or buy accounts, characters, items, or "currency" for "Massively Multiplayer Online Games", or MMOGs, on this forum unless the game in question specifically allows this practice.
The burden of proof is on you. You must provide a link to the official End User License Agreement (EULA) for that game, and quote the applicable text which specifically allows the sale or trade of accounts/characters/items/currency in your thread. Failure to do so will result in the immediate deletion of your thread without question. Continuous violation of this rule will result in a ban of your forum account.
I will not do the research for you.
Most games do not allow the sale or trade of accounts or game content, and specifically prohibit such transactions through their respective EULAs. In an effort to protect this forum and TribalWar.com from the potential of legal action, you are not permitted to sell or trade MMOG-related content here unless it is specifically allowed by the game's publisher.

I'm mostly concerned with MMOs with this rule, but other online multiplayer games (FPS, RTS, etc) may, and probably do, have similar license agreements and they likewise fall under the same rules here. Steam and Battle.net are two examples that come to mind. Again, if you can show that trading/buying/selling/otherwise transferring ownership of those accounts is permitted by the publisher, you're welcome to do so.
World of Warcraft and EVE Online both have their own forums here, and recently Rayn has stated that account transfers are permitted topics for those forums. So there you go.
This is not open to discussion.
