What has happened is that those who do not practice against bots will usually get crushed by those who have trained against bots. That may make backgammon unprofitable for those who are not willing to study the game seriously.

I agree with you but I can’t swear that there are no bots. I always start a conversation. When I don’t get an answer I avoid this player. He is either impolite or a bot. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
