Make selling servers against TOS

(I'm not sure if this kind of feedback is allowed, my apologies if it isn't.)

I've been seeing it time and time again. Invite reward servers, scams, and even authorized apps (that people don't look at carefully enough) that add them to servers willy nilly. Every single time, it seems like their motive is to illegitimately boost their member count so they can sell the server to the highest bidder. It's probably a large reason why these things even exist. I've seen some for sale on eBay and they make me sick.

Selling a server is inherently toxic, and you guys probably already know this. Not only does it trick people to join only for the server to likely become shitty and unrelated, but also (I assume) the person who buys the server gets ripped off, since most users would obviously leave. I assume that most buyers, somehow, legitimately don't understand why it's a crappy idea. Or perhaps they're trying to use all those people for something else. Who knows?

Please make selling servers against the terms of service. Of course, it may never be completely stopped, but it will definitely discourage people from entering the endless, toxic loop of scam, grow, sell. You could make an article or an announcement about it so that it's loud and clear, not hidden beneath the many paragraphs of the ToS.

Thank you!
