People are in for a MASSIVE disappointment if things don't change

Sign the petition (6,007 signatures as of 1/03/2013)

Updated the original post with additional information

Originally posted by Valve's Press Release: “Our customers have expressed a desire to share their digital games among friends and family members, just as current retail games, books, DVDs, and other physical media can be shared,” explained Anna Sweet of Valve. “Family Sharing was created in direct response to these user requests.”

Scenarios

Update: Confirmed bug according to Valve Employee back in early October. You wouldn't know this unless you were to click on that one thread mentioning this.

As of December, Scenario 4 is still the best and least restrictive.

Closing Statement

An official response, sticky or update would be nice.

Now that I've experienced the system first hand, it's time I update this post. A month ago, I created a petition calling for the ability to share our digital games the same way that we share physical media, as stated in the press release. 4,500 people have signed the petition as of October 28th and it's still going. This thread ismost popular topic of discussion on the board with the exception of the sticky... Yet, we're still waiting for a response to our concerns.If you haven't read the quote about the objective of Family Sharing, here it is.Need a source? Here you go: http://store.steampowered.com/news/11436/ Instead of getting what is mentioned above, what we got was a gimped way to share your account without sharing your password. Here's three scenarios I have experienced first hand.Scenario 1: Library owner has Garry's Mod + Borrower has Garry's Mod. Borrower plays game they don't have while the library owner plays Garry's Mod.Still kicks the person off.Scenario 2: Borrower is playing game they don't have, Library owner is playing Team Fortress 2, a free2play game that EVERYONE hasStill kicks the person off.Scenario 3: Library owner is playing Guild Wars 2, a non-Steam game. Borrower is playing a game they don't have.STILL kicks the person off.Now, here's Scenario 4: Library owner shares their password with borrower, none of those restrictions listed above apply. Sure, it's inconvenient not being able to chat with your friends but I'd much rather be able to play something rather than nothing. Also in regards to security, I doubt anyone was worried about their family members stealing their accounts.Why would anyone in their right mind use this system as implemented in its current form? Who is it hurting to allow family members living in my household to play game #1 while I play game #2? Who is it hurting to allow family members to play a Steam game while I play a non-Steam game while using the Overlay? Who is it hurting to allow family members to play a game they don't own while I play something we both own?How does any of that resemble the sharing of physical media in any shape or form? Why has no one pointed out that this is misleading? If Electronic Arts or Activision did this, people would be out for blood BUT since it's Valve, it's okay.
