I see Lichess now has BOT players and is allowing them to play rated games against humans, as for example Lella Zero vs penguingim1. But the human rating system should not be affected by the computer rating system ! If that goes on, then our rating system will be screwed up forever, just like it happens on ICC, were human ratings spin up to 3700. Now please don't allow this to happen in Lichess anymore.
Lichess should keep two distinct and independent rating scales, one only for humans, another one for bots. I know we also desire human vs bot games to be rated, but there is a simple solution. Just make it part of the bots rating system. In other words, penguingim1 should have started with a 1500 provisional rating. He would then gradually build his HumanVsBot ratings.
