I just got this message from lichess: " In your game history, you have several games where the opponent clearly has intentionally lost against you. Attempts to artificially manipulate your own or someone else's rating are unacceptable.
If this behaviour continues to happen, your account will be restricted."
I'm a beginner, 2 months in, a rating of 1030. I guess they are saying I have people helping me artificially raise my rating? I have no idea why I would want to do that. After all if I do that I will face harder and harder opponents, I won't have the skill to beat them and not have much fun.
Could it be people trying to lower their rating? I have no idea why they would want to do that either.
