Hypothetically, if someone were to download a Steam game from FG what’s the best operating procedure to avoid being Steam banned? For example, I understand that steam_api.dll will often be quarantined by MS Defender because the game uses a modded version of that file. Once it’s restored what steps would you take to proceed? Log out of steam? Disable internet access? Kill all Steam processes?
I’ve never heard of a Steam ban for running a pirated game that uses cracked steam_api.dll. The whole point of the cracked .dll is that it doesn’t communicate with Steam anymore.
You won’t get banned if you properly apply the crack. It won’t contact the steam servers anymore.
I’m not certain, but perhaps some games are pre-cracked. For instance, some from that girl who’s fit.
I know you’re trying to be delicate, but all this information we’re sharing is publicly accessible and likely indexed by something so you just end up making the conversation harder to follow
Just my 2 cents
I know. You’re right. It’s just an old habit.

10+ year steam account. 10+ years of pirating.
If you start a game that isn’t cracked or doesn’t have a crack applied, Steam will pop up and say you don’t own that.
Never have gotten as much as a warning for that ever.
If a game already has a crack applied. You don’t have to worry about bans ever. The whole point is to not communicate with the servers and let you play the game.
Steam emulators like Goldberg work in very much the same way. Except now you can “crack” most games with a simple dll change.
