Merge accounts. Banned game?
To accounts, both with the same game. But the game is banned in one of the accounts.

I just started playing Vermintide 2. Played for 4-5 hours. Next day my account was perm banned.
I'm not a online cheater. I can cheat in offline games when I'm bored.
So I can't say "I'm not a cheater". But I can say "I'm not a online cheater".

I'm just playing Vermintide 2 with my son. Like a modern "father and son time" 😉

I think I had a trainer going. I did not close it.

And then I got perm banned. I appeal to the Anti-Cheat company and fatshark.
There I got some help finding out what got me banned. It was that & #-* trainer...

I did not get unbanned. That's OK.
I love the work of the Anti-Cheat company (Easy Anti-Cheat) does and we need them.

I just made me a new steam account and bought Vermintide 2 again and are now playing the game.

My question is.

What happens with the ban if I merge these two accounts? 🤔

I'm sure I can't do that. But if?
That would be too easy for the online cheaters.

Can I have the banned Vermintide game deleted? And replace it with the game from my other account?

In your answer. Please ceep to the question.

You can't merg accounts so the question is moot

And if you have it removed and re buy it the ban remains permanently on the account.

You can't have accounts merged together. Deleting the game will not remove the ban. It was the account that got banned, not the game.

Accounts cannot be merged.

That's straight-forward and there is no question about that.

Once games are removed from your account, the ban still remains.

Scenario 1: A key was revoked for a game that you have a ban from; the ban remains.

Scenario 2: A game was removed from your account through support pages, which had a concurred ban; the ban remains.

I'm singling out this point so hopefully you understand it.

Unless you're offline as in "I physically disconnected myself from the internet" then there is no guarantee your offline gaming isn't actually single-player but still connected. There are numerous games that enable all anti-cheats even in the solo/SP portions of the game. Vermintide 2 is probably in that category.

Thank you all for answers.

Thanks :-)

PS: This is my other account :-D

You can enable Family Sharing and """merge""" your game libraries. I don't know if that would spread the ban over your other account though.

Just remember, not every game is shareable.
