For me, it took around 6 months to get 1600 rating in rapid on chess.com

It took my man "PerfectPlayer69" about 10 seconds to log out of his 400 account and create a new 2000 rated one. Prodigy? Maybe he'll be the next Magnus.

Your rating isn’t counted unless you get a percentile ranking which is obtained by getting a low glicko rd and playing enough games in the past three months

Depends.

1000 took me like 3 weeks after starting at 800. 1200 took another 2 months after that. 1200 to 1400 took me like 2 months after that. and took me another month to go from 1400 to 1500.

Well you stopped playing for several years... You have to consider the activity too

B1ZMARK2

But 1000 in few weeks is impressive. I was stuck at 400 for a long time.

I played actively for five years before quitting for two years then I made my account and was automatically 1100

I mean 1100 isn't a bad rating at all means especially if you started at a younger age

I had played chess before, just not in tournaments or anything competitive. Most of the times I set the board up wrong. But I didn't have anything else to do cause of Corona so...

You don’t understand... from ages 5-12 I was under 1000 UScF rated and I played actively... then I did nothing for two years and I come back to be an 1100...

Well I mean... Chess.com rating is inflated lol
