Is afk trading card farms allowed?

[Eben]

Ok I saw this vidoe of archisteamfarm that runs a exe and unlocking trading cards.
I just what to know may we use them or not and is it banble if I use them.

Using a third party site or software to farm cards sounds dodgey. I would probably say no just afk in the games physically yourself.

Bearing in mind that you don't get card drops as often being in multiple games.

Ok thanks

You can use them, it's not banable if that is what you are wondering. Most people use Idlemaster but not as good as ASF. Like above you can run multiple games at once and can get cards faster that way, but the more games open the more time it'll be for drops.

Ok Thanks

thanks for reminding me to turn idle master on, kek. as far as valve is concerned, they never made any official statements against it, and there are entire groups dedicated to these programs which probably have been reported multiple times/at least looked at, and nothing has been done, so for now you can probably assume they're safe... the biggest plus is that they let you run he games without installing.
