Worth getting a new account after getting vacced on current?
No hate please. I got vac banned for using universal unreal engine unlocker.

Anyways, I have quite a bit of memories on my current steam acc but the fact that it has a big red tag on it saying its vac banned kinda bugs me. I've faced people nearly cyberbully me for being a "cheater" so i just want to escape that by making a new account.

I have spent quite a bit on my account, not exceeding $1000.

I dont plan on rebuying games i already own, but moving forward i want to use the new account.

In my case i have no vac ban but game ban so i would get new account just to play cs go
(if csgo vac)
still u can share some games to your other steam account.
at least im doing it with other account 2th to share some games
and this is still my main after 2k+ days ban
idk if it helps you :) or mby this isnt what you wanted




my short story on ban:
the fun part of my game ban i never owned that game and still got banned cuz i did "family sharing" even support wont help me.
contacted the main game developers they cant remove it to.
the only thing that they said "Security and Enforcement team" who looked into it and 100% ban. and they picked to ban both accounts for family sharing not the only 1 who actually cheated.
and sometimes(by saying this i mean most of the time) they just send bots to reply.

As intended. Otherwise you could get around the ban infrastructure for free by simply creating new accounts and using family library sharing by not playing from the owner account.

yeah, this makes sense instead of just abandoning my current acc. ill just keep my acc and make a new one if i ever want to play the vac banned game. thanks for your advice!

edit: happy new year btw haha
