Multiple accounts Question

So you see, many people have a siblings and they play on the same pc with different accounts, and then they get banned for violating lichess TOS. I know that lichess is strict about its rules, but I was just wondering, if you appeal and explain your reason of what happened, does lichess let your account be reopened? And another question: do bot's count as multiple accounts too?

"So you see, many people have a siblings and they play on the same pc with different accounts, and then they get banned for violating lichess TOS."

This is certainly not true, lichess doesn't ban the sibling for playing on the same pc, it bans the sibling if they have violated the tos.

" if you appeal and explain your reason of what happened, does lichess let your account be reopened?"

It's up to moderators. Only the banned player can appeal for their account, nobody else in case you're wondering. Unless of course the player is in kid mode, then the parents or legal tutors will have to do.

"do bot's count as multiple accounts too?"

It does count as multiple account, but it is allowed. Another legit reason for creating a second account is for blindfold mode purposes.
Generally multi accounting is not forbidden as long as there is a legit reason behind, you don't make an excessive number of accounts and of course if you're not making a new account if your previous one was banned, as that would be ban evasion.

Thanks for the response, @Deadban.
