You sound fat

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

It's in the TOS.

IX. No Resale of Services

You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, or exploit any portion of the Website, use of the Website, or access to the Website.


and

XI. Member Conduct
You agree that you will not use the Website to:
[...]
12. Access any other person's account, or exceed the scope of the Website that you have signed up for; for example, accessing and using features you don't have a right to use.


First part would include giving/trading/selling away an account ("access to the Website"), the second part covers using a given/traded account ("access any other person's account"). The fact that it's a mutual exchange between RPers means they don't generally give enough of a fuck to come down on it unless someone complains, but they always have the option to if there are enough complaints from people who've traded shit to piss them off, or they decide the nibble it takes out of the revenue stream from rename tokens is annoying enough to penalize people for it.

There's also the fact that a DW account is forever and always considered to belong to the person who first created it, via the email address they created it on. Which on the side of the person taking over an account means that if the guy who handed it off to you a year ago decides that hey, they really want to use that username now (or hey, they're pissed because they feel you've snubbed them in a game, or hey, a weasel just crawled up their ass and died, or whatever reason), they can retake it as long as they still have access to the initial account. And on the side of the person handing off the account, it means that if that random sock they gave the account to decides to go be a dicksniff and violate the TOS six ways from Sunday, the best case scenario is that they're both banned, because the original owner is liable for anything done on the account.
