It has come to my attention that if you are using "Steam Family Share" and hack on a account that you are shared with, ALL shared accounts will be banned on TF2 if you have played it on them.
I found this out the hard way and I'm just putting it out there for everyone to know.
Side note: "Undetected Forever" hacks (wallhacks you install) are detectable, don't use them. If you are reported by ANYONE on Steam they will check and find out. I also learned this the hard way
Thanks for reading and I hope you don't make the same mistakes I made and lose all your precious hats!
Ya man I also found this out the hard way but i bounced back and tricked steam into giving me my account back (unbanned from tf2) But seriously don't try it unless you are aware of the consequences

The Official Steam page that talks about Sharing even says this.

Your Family Library Sharing privileges may be revoked and your account may also be VAC banned if your library is used by others to conduct cheating or fraud. Additionally, VAC-banned games cannot be shared. We recommend you only authorize familiar computers you know to be secure. And as always, never give your password to anyone.
Yeah.. I'm pretty sure you should have read up on that before doing any cheating activity on family share. Volvo is dumb, not not dumb enough to trace back to the original user.
Doesn't ban if added after account was vac banned.
Wait so material walls are detectedish now?
If Materials are detected, that kills the "Undetectable Forever" Wall Hack.
That was such a good one too.
I actually used that one about 6 months ago, still waiting on that ban, VAC.

No, material hacks are not. Handled same way regular tf2 skins are handled, so you need not worry.
this is wrong i've family shared 5 accounts and got vac banned on 4 of them individually but i just remove the vac banned accounts and create new ones and add them to family share whatever u guys are talking about has never happened to me.
