Running multiple steam accounts simultaneously?
If I have two steam accounts logged in at the same time on my computer and one of the two happens to get VAC banned (while they're both logged in) will the other one be affected? I'm aware that VAC does not IP-ban, but can they tell when another account is currently logged in from the same location as one that just got banned? I thought I'd ask just in case because of the whole issue where using Steam Family Sharing will get all of your accounts banned. Thanks.
No. You're fine. Family Sharing bans the HOST (original owner of the game), but you're on 2 separate accounts, and 2 different steam-"keys" associated with each user's game.
However, keep in mind, no hack out there is protected from stupidity. I got VAC banned a few months ago through using premium (paid NOT FREE) LMAOBox and although the program could easily have caused it, I'm pretty sure it was just because I was flaunting it and someone reported me... not sure why this needed to be said, but it most definitely did.
schirenia : bullshit, check




skoll012: just make sure family sharing is off.
I wasn't trying to shit out of bull, thank you for the check tho. Also, I love you. AND WHOA WHOA WHOA, I HAD NO IDEA ABOUT THE FAMILY SHARING THING AND NOW I KNOW WHY MY NON-F2P ACCOUNTS GET BANNED MORE OFTEN!!!!! TY TY TY TY. I love you more now...
