what is considered a good ratting ?

Which one?

there is levels, i guess

anyone above 1600 and under 2000 is considered an amateur...

so, a good rating depends on the player thoughts of what is a good player, i guess

What sort of rats are we talking about? 

("Ratting" means "catching rats". Perhaps you meant "rating".)

yeah man, he meant rating

Anything higher than mine.

You guys talking about 2000 being amateur. Am I a noob sent from

Regardless of who you are, you'll always be matched with players of equal strength. Anyone. Including Magnus and Hikaru. The number is basically there for bragging rights.

This question is subjective.  Here are my thoughts: 

2000 is a strong rating.  

2300 is very strong! 

1500 is pretty decent!  

Ratings less than  500 need a lot of improvement since they make careless mistakes every single game.

1000 rating is pretty decent but can be better.  

There is no such thing as a bad ratting.

A good rating is when you stop asking “Is xxxx a good rating?”

i gotta say a good rating is one that's higher than mine

anything from 1000 to 200 sorry if you  if its hard to understand what i mean its my first time posting something.

ok thanks for sharing your thoughts everyone it makes a lot of sense now

youre welcome

you arent 'considered' an amateur. you either are one or you are not. and it has nothing to do with ratings. being an amateur means you do not play professionally. playing professionally means you play for prize money or are otherwise remunerated for playing. being an amateur means that you do not.

2000 *
