Chess.com is a fraud , I bought a subscription to get involved more but instead started to get opponents with low level who actually stronger than me, I always lost. Even 250 score is better than me , that’s ridiculous. Guys, never buy subscription, is gonna destroy your progress. Chess.com does not know how to match opponents with approximate equal score.

I dunno what to say except that’s literally a skill issue. Stop blaming others for your own blunders. Chess isn’t just pay to win. It’s also play to win. Chess.com gives you materials and resources to study your chess not miraculously improve 500 elo in one day.

That's a skill issue buying a membership is not going to make you magically better at chess, it unlocks more tools you can use to get better

Well... you have barely played ANY serious chess here (just one rapid game which lasted 4 moves), while you have played more than 2000 blitz games.

You will never see any progress if you keep on playing without thinking, and this isn't ChessDot Com's fault, or "fraud". It is simply you who isn't doing anything to get better at chess.

You seem to only play blitz here. Besides the fact that longer games are more beneficial in most cases, you don't seem to analyze your games, do puzzles, etc. Just blitz chess.

You don't magically become a better player by having a diamond next to your name. You would actually have to use the resources given to you from the membership to reap the benefits.

You're seeing what a steady diet of speed chess will do for you. Its not the site that is the issue. Its YOU.

You’re a very funny guy😂

Wow, 250 Elo after 2000+ games, that's truly amazing.

I tend to believe, it must take a will of iron to not progress at all for so many games.

It's almost a super power. The useless kind, but still.

It's like the guy is a god of non-chess.

Avatar of Kaeldorn

I remember when we were kids, playing that weird game, where you have to move your hand or arm, as slowly as possible, yet still moving it. It's harder than it seems. I bet that guy won every game of it when he was a kid.

Participation trophies were invented for people exactly like this
