Alright, so when I'm bored, I always skim the Reports, Appeals, and Donator Questions/Problems subforums. And everytime I read the latter, I get rather depressed that Badlion does not permit rank transfers. Half of the pages are taken up with people saying that Mojang reclaimed their mc account, and they want a transfer to another account. Of course, the request is denied. Why, though? The players have spent anywhere from $5-$75 USD. The latter is an especially large sum of money. Don't they deserve that money back/transferred, especially when their losing of their account wasn't 1% their fault?McNerdx said this: "That's because people that aren't needed to transfer their rank will request rank transfers to their alts and etc. With the amount of Donators Badlion has now, it'll be a real hassle to do it for everyone."

Solution to this problem: There is a cooldown implemented into a transfer system. You have to wait a month until another rank transfer can be made. Or, better yet, five weeks. You should rarely be losing your accounts except for the mojang compromising situation, so this will work.
Also, here is McNerdx's last point. "Also, if someone lost access to their account it's really their responsibility and not ours. This goes for accounts getting hacked." My argument up there can be used again, that it's not really the players' fault that they lost their accounts. Don't tell me that "Oh, they shouldn't have bought those cheap, $1 alts" because many premium accounts were lost, including mine and Unshifts. Many cannot find their Transaction ID, lost their email, etc, so they cannot reclaim those accounts.
It pains me to see all those dollars from players lost, they were most likely saving up for that cash for a while. Countless hours of begging with parents, saving allowance. It must hurt McNerdx as well to have to reject those requests on a daily basis.
And I heard MasterGBerry saying that rank transfers also threaten security, if that's true, rip and scratch all this.

I buy a rank on Account1, I get it transfered to Account2 and chargeback saying that I didn't get what I paid for on Account1I'm pretty sure that's why they are never gonna be a thing.

There would be a history of transfers that the mods could easily have access too.

I am too, paypal won't ask you to show "proof" before / after of the transfer that they don't know about and getting a chargeback would be easy

I lost 2 accounts from the Mojang thing and I tried to email them and got no response. I even tried to reset my password but that didn't work either.I would be super pissed if my account that had Lion was lost :/

+1. I read through those things and such.Posted on 03 April 2016 - 07:08 AM
Security issues are the reason this is not allowed.e.g. i steal someone's account. i pay $5 to transfer their perma lion to my alt. now i have it they don't and then we have the issue of who was on which account and stole what etc.
aka no.
