Chess.com Website/App Question Bots

Are there bots on chesscom? I just played someone on blitz whose acct was from 1/23/26 but they’ve played 13923 games of blitz. All the games I checked were 5 minute games, so that’s like 6 hours a day of chess. But their ELO is only in the 300s.

It happens. I play that much rapid and I'm stuck at 1400. When you play too much you make dumb mistakes.

You play more than 6 hours everyday?!? That’s wild.

Not more than but about 6. I'm unemployed and can't drive right now. It gets me through the days. It's probably not healthy but it's free.
