I'm kind of interested in knowing if anyone out there has more than one steam account...I've only got one and I don't really see a reason in having more than one. I know some people have two accounts because of trading, but I still don't understand why that can't just include the trading part in their original account. Anyways, I thought I'd put this question out there and if you do have more than one account...why?

  1. Why would I need more?

Though I do have 2 PSN accounts (a NZ account and a US account) and 2 XBox Live accounts (my original is linked to a email that was hacked long ago, and only in use because all my limited edition DLCs are linked to it, with a second made for use with GfWL titles).

Obviously the only way to get rid of copies is to make extra accounts. :P

Well, my friend wanted dota 2 long time ago, so he asked me to make an account and signed up for beta, then I started trading too in those days so I used to keep giftable dotas there, and about my 3rd one, I made that so I can play dota 2 with my gf In peace.

Why do I feel like this is a bold faced lie. IMO the only reason to have more than one steam account is to exploit something. Be it in-game items, special deals, or some sort of x-mas/sale contest. I just don't trust it...

When I was in China, Steam support told me to make a secondary account to play because I had to play the region locked version there and not the US version.

I chose just not to play Dota 2 as it seemed like a pain to have a second account just for one game--- but I could see why people would have more accounts if they travel often.

Think about it. Would you really want people to know it was you who unloaded all those DOTA 2 keys on innocent bystanders?

to answer your question, some ppl have multiple tf2 accouts to farm for items, some ppl actually want to have other accounts to hide from friends and family(and not unfriend them from their main account) and play without anyone that might bother them(i have a friend like that, funny thing is he added me to his other accounts just to talk while he chills playing binding of isaac lol)

and as far as im concerned theres the hackers, the trollers, the smurfs(dota 2, you can make a new account and be grouped with low tier players so you can pubstomp them or train them, etc)

there really are a lot of reasons ppl have multiple accounts, i for one have 2 accounts, my wifes and mine, you may say her account is mine since i play her games as well, and well...i pay for the games so yeah i guess that counts as 2 accounts :P

I have two. I have my main one and one that I lost the password to. I could never get steam to recover it for me because I didn't have the purchase info.

I have 1 that I use, and one that I created a loooong time ago for CS Beta (1.5? The one that introduced the riot shield I think..) and have no idea what it is, or what email I used to create it. So I guess I don't have that one anymore, but I used to. :P

I have 4 but haven't logged into the other 3 in over a year maybe a year and a half. I had a few so I could smurf in dota 2. I made the others so I could get coal during the winter event a few years back.
