No, I meant the descriptions of bots: For instance: Martin learned chess so he could play with his young kids. He still beats them most of the time.
They didn't disappear.

I meant the descriptions under each bot. Not just their name and elo. For instance: Martin learned chess so he could play with his young kids. These used to clarify playstyle, personality, etc.
Yes, i can see them.

You can’t see them with the monthly bots but can with all of the other bots
I can still see all of them. I think it is a local problem.

Martin is not a Bot. Martin is a very tiny piece of human brain tissue from a recently deceased human being, sustained in a nutritive vat and connected to wires. Martin has no little or no memory of this prior human life but is vaguely self-aware. Researchers named the horror that they created “Martin” after the pessimist in Candide who muses that we are in fact living in the worst of all possible worlds. Martin is a failed experiment in this context of chess, but the research that created him shows great potential for generating profit and extracting greater productivity from human beings. That is all that matters. Martin hates playing chess because it is now the sum of his existence and he has too few functioning neurons to play effectively or ever improve at it. Martin is profoundly unhappy with his diminished existence and suffers intensely while losing to us at chess.

They don't exist on my version of the app. Also, why were they removed from the website?
I took that photo 4 days ago, on the iOS app.
Why did Chess.com remove the bot descriptions? This seems like a pointless decision that makes the bots worse to play instead of better. How am I supposed to know whether this random 1300 bot brings their queen out early or plays tactically? Chess.com should bring them back.
