Ideas on how to "sharpen" my style?

not sure what youre trying to say and if youre referring to me.  anyway , what i tryied to say is black have a semi open file which didn't come to use in chessman game , also black best chances would probably be attacking from the queenside maybe later on reposition his knight on c6 to c3 , pushing b7 to b5 - b4  ...  seems odd to me that this game ended in a draw, game should have continued . 

You know what, I deleted my original post. Why? Because, it's infantile to engage people who have nothing better to do but attempt to insult me. My comment was mean, and being mean does nothing but encourage such people. Zborg, I'm sorry if I have offended you in any way, but your comments only encourage people to give back what you give to them. I wish no longer to continue this argument and to get on to better things, like being a better chess player and a better person. If you wish to accept this offer of friendship or, in any case, to terminate this superfluous bickering, then all the better. If you don't and wish to keep the same opinion of me as a chess player and as a person, then that is on you. I personally don't care about how you perceive me because ultimately, to me, you are simply a talking head behind a screen. Now, I have better things to do then continue these shenanigans and acknowledge your posts that have done little but attempt to belittle my efforts, question my methods, and judge my current chess "career", mental acuity, and psychological stability. Have a nice day, play good chess, have fun with your relationships, and may God bless you.

Beer is sometimes not enough, try moonshine and it surely sharpens your chess vision 

One important thing is, never become too sober. When you feel like that drink a little more. I lost many promising games when my brain engine started lacking the fuel

To indicate that I wish to move on, I will delete all of my posts that only serve for useless argumentative purposes and do not contribute to the thread or chess playing or life in general.

well, people already said a lot, so yeah...

how to sharpen: easiest way is to play gambits
there is nothing wrong with a "boring style". that said, at your level tactics probably count for A LOT and then sharp positions make for good practice.

also, you seem like you got a good attitude to chess and life. it'll do you good.

Thank you very much :)

This was a good game and a draw was a very good result.

First, your opponent rating was higher.

Second, you played as black, and you know in general a draw is better for black than for white.

Third, you have bored your opponent (maybe included yourself) that he opted for a draw.

Hehe, I kind of tested him, to see if he was actually going for a draw. :P

It worked. And it's a boring game but good result. So what's your complain? Don't change your style and hope for a better result.

For openings try 1 e4 intending to play the kings gambit vs. 1 ... e5.  as black play the King's Indian or the Benoni vs 1 d4.  vs. 1 e4 play the Sicilian. Play aggressively and study combinations and train your fantasy (think about sacrifices) during play.  

One thing you can do that will help right now:

Never play for a draw. If your opponent offers to repeat positions and you have a way to continue the game without losing, take that option. 

Never offer a draw, unless the position is completely dead. Do not accept a draw offer, regardless of the rating of the opponent, unless you are certain that the very best you could possibly get from the position is a draw. (In other words, if you are certain you're losing and your opponent offers a draw, take it!)

In the game where you drew by repetition, you had the choice to fight on or draw. 

Become a fighter!

I kind of disagree, especially when I play black, or my opponent is 50 points higher. May I ask for your opinion, why not to accept a draw in such situation?

I don't like gambits, either King nor Queen. Either decline or accepted. Gambits are for gamblers hoping for opponents goof.

Well, human makes errors most of the time. Either gambits or not, we hope for opponents goof. But I would rather play my chess that I feel secured.

The short, simple answer is, if you want to remain 50 points, lower, take those draws. Your opponent will know they can get a draw from you whenever they want, and play without fear.

If you want to become a feared opponent, fight for every point. 

I mean in a draw position. I think you have a point. I can get more points by fighting than my higher rated opponents.

But do you deny that a draw is a good result? I think it's not bad.

depends on if you're primarily results-oriented or improvement-oriented.

there's a place for both, but in general i think that for silly online games it's clearly better to adopt an improvement-oriented posture (for reasons that i think that are somewhat obvious) and that includes playing out "equal, but not drawn" positions against the higher rated.

Are you seriously talking about the queen's "gambit" here ?

yes, a gambit is a gambit. Or change the name without gambit.

* Stop playing the lines that GM's play
* Stop playing e4 for a while
* Try out some gambits and slightly "unsound" openings
* See improving and learning as a more important goal in these games compared to winning the game. If dropping in rating hinders you, play unrated.
* Play online games where you can start the game from a chosen opening, and where you have plenty of time to think about your tactical possibilities for every move. 

A couple of openings that will often lead to more agressive, tactical and interesting games: Blackmar-Diemer Gambit / Latvian Gambit / Grob's Attack / From's Gambit / ... and you should at least try the Jerome Gambit once.
