Bots on first few games?

I registered last Dec. 11 and started at rating 800. I only play rapid and I put serious focus at every game. A sort of mental workout and progression. I sense, that the first few games against opponents rated 800-1500, that I am playing against a bot. I sensed something erratic in the moves texture. Does anybody have comments about this? I respect whatever technique the system is employing, I just want to confirm my observation. Thanks

I'm not sure I agree with this exactly truthadjustr. Playing the bots on here is a strange experience. When I started on rapid I shot up to 1500+, it seemed too easy, and then gradually meandered down to 800ish. Perhaps I was playing bots at the beginning?
