Hi everyone. I wanted to know if I can make another account. Obviously I read the rules correctly, but my brother would like to play too. Unfortunately we have only one computer. He would only play Bullet because he's crazy about it. Unlike me, who hates quick games. So I ask: Is it possible to make another account on the same computer without the risk of being banned? If the nick is not already in use, He it would sign up with the BulletKingVirus nick.

Therefore, there would be no problem if two of us play on the same computer, but obviously with different accounts. As I wrote in the post, my brother would only play Bullet , with this nick BulletKingVirus nick.
I don't see any problem with it, so long as you're not playing on his account

Multiple accounts - Having more than one account is not allowed, barring specific circumstances. For example, titled players are automatically entitled to one “public” account, for play in certain prize events hosted either by Lichess or another tournament organiser, and one “private” account, for casual play online whilst still displaying their titled status. Untitled players can create a second account for similar reasons, with some examples including having a private account to hide opening preparation, playing “blindfold” games, or playing games with any other self-imposed impairment. Creating an excessive number of accounts (typically any more than three) will generally not be allowed, regardless of reasons. Creating and closing multiple accounts will also be treated as contributing to this maximum number. As with all other rules, the specific circumstances where multiple accounts are allowed remain at Lichess’ discretion.

Behave accordingly.

Yes of course I have read. The moderator says it's not a problem...
Let's say I wanted some more confirmation.. But if a moderator says so, it will be true!
