<Comment deleted by user>

as long as you dont use it for smurfing or farming, i think lichess allows it

For bots and blindfold chess and more reasons!

No idea what lichess' policy on this is, but I think it should be fine, especially if you only use it for things like Studies, or casual games. Maybe they can confirm if it's allowed yes or no

Making a BOT account is fine.
But making multiple regular accounts is not allowed(even if you close the one you are currently using).

A bot, blindfold play, berserk play are legitimate reasons for a second account.
The lichess terms of service forbid it.

There must be some reasonable accounts.

Like: •BOT, •Blindfold, •Berserk, •Arena, •Simuls, etc

In my opinion, berserk should NOT be a legitimate reason. If you berserk, you should not be able to just shuffle off any resulting losses to a second account.

Arena DEFINITELY isn't a legit reason. In fact that just looks like it encourages sandbagging.

If the same player plays arena with all berserk, then he probably will drop like 200 in rating. This is a form of sandbagging. If he then plays arena without berserk with the same account, then he is rated too low.
