I understand it was my account but it was not my actions. You don’t have to be rude about it.

@kalen_306265 Sadly, this applies to a lot more than just video games. This is a sad and expensive but very valuable lesson that may save your life one day.

Let me give you an example. You let your cousin drive your car. He gets drunk, runs over and kills someone. You are not driving. The family of the person you killed can still sue you for every penny you have because your name is on the title.

Long story short, what you let other people do with your possessions can harm you financially, make you lose your job, ruin your professional reputation, etc.

When you look at it from that point of view, losing a video game account isn't really that huge a deal.
