just an idea but couldn't they tie accounts to the IP address you used to create the account and only allow accounts to log in from said IP, require petitions to change your IP.... like if you move or something. not sure how well that would work and i really dont know shit about shit when it comes to these kinds of things but it seems like if they could put IP blocks up to prevent boxing they could do it for account traders

They couldn't use IPs, but they could use hardware IDs:

Other than that, the only information that is sent on a regular basis would be hardware ID's that we can use to distinguish your computer from anyone else's. This helps us deter two boxing and track down hackers, dupers, RMT, and etc even if they change their external IP address, which is a common occurance. These ID's are arbitrary and do not personally identify you in any way.

Atleast, I think they could based on what Rogean is saying is in the DLL. However, I am confused why they don't do this to enforce perma-bans. Perhaps there is a hangup with it.
