So I introduced my brother to chess. He doesn't have a phone of his own atm, so he is playing on my device. He was playing bots and against me, but wants to play real players. I have made a new account for him using parallel apps, but found out there are rules against making alts. Now my brother is still very bad in chess compared to my level, but he still shares some similarities, like opening with e4 pawn maybe? And that's like the only similarity we have right now, but he notices my game and learns from me, so it's possible he'll play like me in future. I want to know that should I be worried about chess.com thinking that I'm using an alt?
As we are using same IP address and device so I'm kinda worried, but my guess is nothing bad should happen. Can anyone clear my confusion?
As long as you have different accounts and don't play rated games against each other, you should be fine.
