I agree 100 present if fact iv been trying to get beter at bullet and iv also been getting better as chess because of that
True! It helps doesn't it? Even if it didn't, is it not chess? Nope, still is. Take Crazyhouse. How does that improve you? It hardly does! Is it still chess? A form!
I did play a game w/ someone recently; every move was quicker than a second! (The time limit was an hour)
(My king reached d4). Bullet is good chess... when you reached a skill limit, stop laying it for a while, take some time to think about deeper strategies and tactics, improving your intuition. Then go right back to bullet.

This is wrong. Just because it is about time means it is not chess? Of course not! It's a type of chess.
So forget it, no matter what the world says bullet is, then it will still be a form of chess as it has always been and it always will. Even if it is just for fun, or to help you play longer games, BULLET IS STILL CHESS.
Bullet is still chess that has no purpose of playing
I have a feeling some people here were expecting me to comment
Chess 960 is not chess! It's like playing poker but all of the players personal cards are face up and the cards in the middle are face down. Is that "a form of poker", too? Bullet is a form of chess, because it is chess. It just has a time limit, like most chess games. The only difference is that it simply has a short time limit. There is only 4 reasons why they call it "bullet" instead of "a chess game with a very short time limit".
1. It is much easier to say "bullet" than "a chess game with a very short time limit".
2. The game moves as fast as a bullet.
3. The game moves a fast as somebody who has taken a bullet to the heart dies.
4. It is very hard to become highly rated so when someone with very high rating open seeks they get to play with someone with a lot lower rating. Then, if that person makes a blunder, and loses a LOT of points, that makes the person feel like (s)he's just taken a bullet to the heart. If (s)he bets on the game, then she also takes a bullet to the wallet.
Bullet has a purpose of playing

Listen here, people need to know that bullet IS chess, whether they think it improves them or not, it is still a type of chess. Even when people think that it is just stupid to play, IT IS STILL CHESS. It's a form of chess! Is Chess960 not chess just because the pieces at the back are mixed around? NO! Chess960 is a TYPE or FORM of chess! So these people who think bullet is not chess say that because they hate bullet. Therefore, ignore them, because they are not only wrong, but bullet can improve you as well, by being able to move quicker and notice things quicker while still not moving to fast.
