Family sharing? no because it's their account they're using.

You are responsible for your account

Family sharing? no because it's their account they're using.

I used family sharing with a friend and cheated in evolve and his shit got banned.

He got banned, you didn't. Does this pretty much mean that you wont get banned if OP's theoretical friend cheats

It depends on the game, if it's a valve game you'll receive the ban.

 

If it's a non-valve game he'll get banned.
