As i said, i understand that it's my fault, but why TF2 when i got banned in CS:S, the game that Valve forgot for more than 10 years

Because this is what you agreed upon during account creation.

1 VAC ban on record | Info <—-
0 day(s) since last ban

Hi. Recently i got VAC banned in CS:S because 1 "bad guy" got access to our steam family sharing library and used cheats on local server with friends cuz of bad skill. Because i got VAC banned on CS:S, VAC also spread to other Source games, these are: DOD:S, HL2:D,HLD:S and unfortunately, TF2. You see, this game is the reason i made this account all the way back in july of 2013 and i still love to play this game a few times a month with my friends on casual or competitive scrimmage and this game is an important part of my childhood and my life, and sad thing about this is the fact that there is no replacement for TF2. I understand that its my fault that stranger got invited to family sharing and i got banned because of him, and the fact that this post will not be noticed by anyone from the VAC team, but its really, really sad that because of that strange policy i lost my access to one of my favorite and best game that i ever had experience to play.

Please, read again a title of this discussion. I'm not trying to say that im not guilty or something, im not trying to say "plz remove wac ban i dident chiet thx" or smh. What am saying is that this policy looks outdated. Only TF2 still receives some attention from developers while other 4 forgotten for more that a decade. Do i really deserve to get blocked from accessing TF2 because of a forgotten game made in a year 2004?

Yes, because that is policy. Disagreeing with the policy doesn’t change anything

Yeah I did here's a good example from your own profile :

Maybe, but do i, and many other people with the same situation like me really deserve to lose access to a TF2 because of a CS:S? Do you really think that im stupid or what with all those comments you sent?? I deserved to get ban because of a family sharing, i understand all that. But i lost access to a live game because of a dead game that Valve forgot about almost after release

You keep saying a “dead game”, Valve decides the policy. If you are asking if the policy is outdated, my answer is no.

Never called you stupid, using ad hominem insults usually means that you ran out of arguments (generally speaking). All I said was that I agree with this policy because it takes away any loophole to keep it consistent. Sure, TF2 is the most popular on the list but if you cheat in one game (and I am fully aware that your claim was due to account sharing and that you accept the ban, just not in TF2) then you could likely cheat in other games. If I were going into a game with a cheater, I would probably never want to play that game again (definitely not against a cheater)
