Could a member of my family and I play a game in Steam at the same time? [duplicate]

I have bought a game, but a member of my family couldn't because of $$ and I was thinking if I can do this:

1. Add his/her computer to the list of family share of steam to let him/her see and play my games (I already have done that).
1. Block steam (and possibly the game too) in my computer with the firewall to go offline.
1. Disconnect internet (if 2 doesn't work).
1. Start the game in both computers (one online and one offline (the offline will be me)).

Before this, I could actually let him/her play my games when I don't play them, and going offline apparently don't block my games.

If I do this, do he/she could play it? (I don't care to go offline or lose achievements, but I care if I could get banned if I do this).

Also, he/she'll buy it, but meanwhile I was thinking if I can do this.

I have read this answer and apparently it can be done, but I want to know if this is risky.

Best Answer

Or, alternatively, you could use steam family sharing: http://store.steampowered.com/promotion/familysharing

It's official and everything :)

Edit: I stand corrected. Looks like the terms do ban it. Ignore this answer. Although... looks like it's not an instaban process, because I know that both I and a family member have played the same thing, at the same time, from my library.

Can I play a game while someone is using my Steam library?

No, you cannot play from your friend's library while they are playing.

Can you play the same game on two devices on Steam?

Yes, but you can only play the game on 1 computer at any given time, which means the game cannot be running on both pc's at the same time.
