Will i be banned if i use Bluestacks the whole time im in a game?

[T,R Raffles Group]

Alright so first of all this isnt my main account. im scared they will remove my other acc couse i have over 180 games, and i got some games over 800 hours so.. i rly dont want to loose my account.
So why i use bluestacks?
Im trading tf2 items and you guys know that it tells u to confirm your trade on your mobile phone . i use bluestacks instead its like android on pc. if i play a game on steam while this is open in my desktop will something happen?

As I already said above, I feel for those who can't do this the normal way and I wish Valve would add more options.

But that doesn't mean that I'll ever personally support this virtual workaround, simply because of how much can go wrong with it, it doesn't improve your security one bit, and will only increase the likelyhood they decide to ditch the trading altogether from such users.

People can still trade without a phone. They just get a hold placed on items.

Yes and that sucks,sucks so much for people that want the items right now. valve is doing so much stupid stuff these months.. first the email thing ( i thought that was pretty annoying but guess what the mobile is waaay more) now the mobile thing.. whats next? you have to go to their hq to accept the trade?

If people would stop being so dammed foolish Valve wouldn't NEED the protections they put in place. But no, there's no stopping stupid.

They should atleast gave us to wait 1 day for the items,3 days are way too long. tbh even a day for ppl those that wanna quicktrades but a day is ok for everyone.

But alright,i guess i wont trade anymore until they do something about it or i hope they do.

It's 1 day with people you've been friends with for over 365 days though.

You will not be banned for using Bluestacks, but has long been known that this emulator collects all keystrokes in the operating system, carefully collects your passwords, accounts, credit card information and sends to developer... ;)
Have a nice day!

I have seen a post or two here from users that claim that Bluestacks negatively affects Steam/games on Windows 10. Just passing that on in case you are interested.

Source?

Not to question, but when making a statement, I'd expect one.

There are forum threads about that "Your PC is blocking VAC"-error that got solved after uninstalling Bluestacks.

But how is that necessarily related to keylogging?

It is related in the way that you're destroying the 2 in 2FA by using the Steam mobile app on your PC in Bluestacks.

Yeah, I said that I don't support it.

But I wouldn't go the distance to call a package to include a keylogger without any source on that.
