Chess.com should have a online title! :D

I think chess.com should give out a title for online players like a online master title, OM or COM for chess online master, with some prerequisite to meet like having a chess.com rating of above 2200 or something like that. I think that would be so cool.

You would have been within one game of reaching it today. Too bad.

You realize such titles would be worthless outside the small world of Chess.com?

It'd actually be cool for it to be implemented, so we can see average 2200's with titles get blasted by FM's.

real titles requires norms. These show consistent performance at that level and that they have beat other titled / players confirmed of that level.

A title for just being above a rating is pointless, the rating itself shows you are above that rating and the title would be overkill.

If however, the title required getting "online norms" by beating titles players and other online titled players in specific online tournaments or "title games" a then is would actually mean something.

Not a lot, but something.

Nah most titles don't require norms.

Only the IM/GM/WIM/WGM titles require norms.

All the other titles don't. For example: FM is just 2300 FIDE rating and that's it. No norms needed.
