Difference in rating


I am not sure you will lose much if you an 800 plays a 1600, most likely gain lots of points if you win or draw, and lose nothing if it is a loss. But if it bothers you just block them, or set your profile to only allow challenges from friends.

Maybe, Players are challenging you because they think you are stronger vs. what your rating says!
After a chess game, What rating does the Chess Review Rating say you are?

The chess review rating shows differently from time to time, sometimes even 1000-1500. But I think my rating is 800, as in my profile. Anyway, I'm always challenged by 1600-1800 rating players.

Well, There you go!
The Chess Review thinks you’re playing at 1,500 player strength!
No wonder those 1600 players wish to face you
They see your chess power!

You are just so humble that you don’t even realize your greatness!
