Lost rating: only played unrated games

Hey, I'm new to chess so I've purposely not been playing any rated games (until I get better!). My rating is for some reason around 850 even tho I haven't played any rated games!

Could it be because I resign (early sometimes) — because I made a ridiculous move that lost my queen very early & quit out of fustration...but still, that why I play unrated!

strange, for some reason you became rated in this game, but in the detail it said "unrated" ?

Thanks Luigi_Fan, I'll do that. Yeah I've played a couple rated games but not enough to drop my rating that much!
