Hello.

So, I would like to know some things related to suicide and preparing for it.

These are my questions for now:

1. How do I ensure that my accounts and / or credentials (specifically, Steam accounts, gaming accounts, and such) are accessable by others after my death, yet secure enough to prevent them getting locked or banned? I've put them on a Discord server, but I'm not sure if it's a balance between security and accessibility.

2. Is it better to finish projects before committing suicide, or is it better to just leave those projects before you do the deed?

3. Are there any methods that would not attract attention before the deed is being done?

Those are my current questions. Thank you and I apologize if some of them sounds stupid.

(EDIT: Removed the prefix because I'm not sure if this goes to the Help prefix. If there's a better fit, please let me know.

1) Just write all your account data on a sheet of paper and leave it for family / friends. None of your accounts will be banned unless s.o. reports your death including the respective documents.
2) Depends on your personality. I'd assume most people would like to finish their projects to not leave unfinished things behind & therefore dying a little more peacefully
3) If you're worrying about muscular spasms or other noises that may occur while you're ctbing you might wanna consider using a car or a tent, so noone will hear you.

I see. I'm more worried about the answers to question 1 and 3.

The elaborations:

1: I have accounts that I'd like to pass down to someone. Problem is that most of the people I think as close friends are online, on the internet. Specifically, the games I've pre-ordered and already released are on those accounts, and I'd like to keep those accounts on circulation.

3: I'm more into making as less loud noise as I can, just to make sure that during my attempt to CtB, I won't get caught doing it by anyone in my house.

Still, thank you for the answers, EternalSanction. I'll keep them in mind when planning my suicide.

1. Many services have ToS that state they are non-transferable or that account sharing isn't ok. So as stated above, it's important that the heir doesn't report it. Otherwise, it should be fine to just write down the details somewhere.

2-factor authentication could be an issue with other people accessing some of these accounts, go through and check that it's disabled. This could make your accounts much easier to get into by other people though so also make sure the passwords are unique, strong, and not ones you've used elsewhere.

One idea is to change the email they're all associated with to an email address you're comfortable with passing on control of to someone else. Then you could send the details (however you planned to send the Discord message) to someone else, along with explanations of the accounts associated with it you'd like them to have access to and what you'd like them to do with them. Up to you whether you need to explicitly put the passwords in a file or something, I don't know how savvy your friends are.
