Hello everyone!

In light of a significant increase in the number of reports, inquiries, and opened appeal tickets concerning account sharing, we wish to emphasize that sharing your Steam or Epic Games accounts is strictly prohibited, as explicitly mentioned in their respective Terms of Service.

For more details, please refer to the following sources:

Steam Subscriber Agreement: Section 1-C, available at https://store.steampowered.com/subscriber_agreement

Epic Games Terms of Service: "Accessing the Services and Account Security" section, available at https://www.epicgames.com/site/en-US/tos?sessionInvalidated=true

It is important to note that having personal alternative accounts is not considered a violation of the terms. However, sharing such accounts is a violation, and any consequences resulting from doing so are the sole responsibility of the original user.

We strongly advise against sharing accounts, utilizing other players' accounts, and using your accounts on machines whose safety cannot be guaranteed as it can lead to your accounts being game banned.

Thank you for your attention and I wish you a good day!

Honest question, why would anyone want to share accounts? Like, it's Mordhau. Smurfing isn't really a thing here.

Tournament match fixing, competitive team-draft fixing, cheating on an "already tarnished" account, lending the account to friends in good faith not realizing the implications(family share is a thing I guess some are not aware of). Those are the common ones at the top of my head, but there are more.
