What does it mean for a bot to violate tos? • page 1/1 • Lichess Feedback • lichess.org

For example, https://lichess.org/@/CaptureBot . I was under impression these are generally given to rude or cheating people.. but bots don't talk and are officially allowed to cheat

It’s to prevent others from boosting their rating by continuously playing against the bot.

@turtleleo77 #4 no, because for such a thing they receive chat bans, not a banner saying violation of terms of service.
@tzar_bomba BOT violating terms of service is when a person keeps playing the same line against the bot and wins and increases their rating. Sometimes, bot owners purposefully resign through the bot acc to boost their human acc rt.
