every rating group of players do this. 1200's do it to 800s, 1600s do it to 1200s, 2000's do it to 1600's and 2400's do it to 2000's.
Its part of human ego. if you've improved in something to a level greater than another group of people, u naturally see urself as superior so u see it as normal to make fun of them.
People at all ratings do it.
Yup, most people can´t handle ratings.
I don't view myself superior to those lower rated than me, they would kick my butt in something else.
In what of many ways?
It was created by a notorious troll (Chomper) to "defend" (in giant airquotes) another notorious troll.
But in reality the goal was to abuse chess.com's community. Like everything else Chompy ever does.
And of course no moderator intervened to protect the community against trolls, because why would they.
Is there any reason to resurrect this dead troll topic?
Nobody insulted anyone, it's just typical Chompy trolling.

Haven’t read the rest of the forum, but it’s presumably by giving people pointless advice and claiming it’s the way to become better than 99.9% of chess players who somehow haven’t figured out that capturing free pieces is a good idea?
and never once proving that you can offer any genuine insights or a level of analysis that matches what your rating would suggest?
can’t wait to be challenged to a bullet match instead of him addressing any of my points…

the only troll here is you by constantly accusing me of cheating while you hang pieces every game.

Cool story, chomper 👍

What's the point of playing rapid if you're going to literally hang pawns and pieces with more than 7 minutes on the clock anyways? Not to mention you have negative positional sense and constantly make bad positional moves. A real 1500 rated player wouldn't constantly trade their better more active piece for useless ones, or hang their pieces every other move.

Nobody wants to hear your ELO shaming. Leave them alone and let someone who can actually give advice instruct them on their chess skills.
@DoYouLikeCurry clearly is not interested in your ranting, yet you keep going on purely for attention. Can you now see why so many people think that you're a troll?

And what’s the point in being 2300+ if you’re going to use your presumably decent chess talent to put other people down, bud?
If I was that level at chess, I would be doing two things: grinding out the game to become a titled player with help from a coach; and trying to give genuinely good advice to people if they ask for it.
I have not been playing great chess of late. Partly because I have been playing largely on my phone when on break at work. But I’m still among the top 100,000 on this site, I believe, of tens of millions. I would love to keep improving, and the advice of genuine high rated players is always helpful, particularly for my weaker areas.
You, on the other hand, seem to delight in oversimplifying your analysis, and are the only person I know in the chess world who calls pawns pieces. 🤷♂️
Ironically, if you changed your advice to people to advising them not to lose pawns, that at least might be a more helpful and interesting take. Are you not a fan of gambits and never leave poisoned pawns? That’s an interesting style at least….
Yes. Janko got banned today!!
