New Member Would Appreciate A Little Guidance

Hello Everyone

I am new to chess.com with a Gold Membership. Though I’ve been in and out of chess for decades, I have just started taking more interest. I have never played an OTB Tournament and thus have no USCF Rating

I am finding it a little difficult to navigate and would appreciate any help with the following:

1) Is this the best place to get help, or is there something like a new member guide I can view/download?

2) Initially I would like to play over some blitz/rapid games in select openings by members rated 1000 - 1500. Is this possible, and if so could someone please guide me

3) What features are available on Chess TV and how would I access them

4) Any advice anyone might think helpful would be appreciated

Thanks in advance for any replies

1. support.chess.com could help

2.no

3. it is just a twitch stream i think (also youll get ads because it is a twitch stream even with membership unless you have some sort of membership in twitch)( i dont know much about this)

4.bots are overrated at chess.com/computer (e.g. a 1600 bot doesnt play like a 1600 player)

your welcome
