First of all, you're not allowed to share an account, and if the admins 
find out they'll derank you just as if you had been intentionally 
sandbagging.

Also, it's not just the bot creators that value the integrity of the 
rank system. As a KGS player, I report anybody when I find obvious 
cheating. I originally reported this player and I stand by it.

Bot bashing is rampant on KGS, and there are several people on KGS who 
feel like they are defending the honor of humanity. My guess is that 
this person took it too far.

This person spent all their time playing bots, had an amazing record 
against CrazyStone, and resigned several games in the middle where he 
had a lead or good chances against the Aya bots.
