I am a amazed at the amount of users on both Lichess,Chess.com and other such sites are so paranoid over there Pretend ELO ratings, all online sites run there own madeup system which is only a basic guide to one's chess abillity?! its not a true ELO rating which uou would have if you were playing in FIDE rated over the board events, so why so many people get so emotional over tge ups and downs of any rating they may have on online chess sites is is quite entertaining 😉
Yes, theres no need to get so mad over a bunch of numbers that hold no ties to your intelligence.
I used to be one of those people, so scared of my elo going down and not playing for weeks on end. However, I have now mostly gotten over that, and I am now having much more fun playing chess 
.
Many confuse elo with ego.
