Why is everyone low rated so ridiculously good?

I have only been playing for 1.5 years

Yeah, you are doing better than me after 2 years!

I started at around 1300 and went up by about 100 points every year. Slow learner, lol.

I got stuck at around 1700-1800 level for a while. In the last 2 years I studied openings and reached 2100.

Blitz, I still cant get above 1900. It takes a lot of natural skill (logic, judgement, calculation) and speed of thought to do well at Blitz. I think it suits younger players and I am now 44

I would focus on positional chess and getting a good endgame and learning how to swindle learning to spot tactics that's probably the most important thing that helped was me spotting 1900-200s blunders and if they don't blunder try to force it learning tactics prob most important (not threw puzzles btw) those are kinda useless

I agree, the puzzles are not very helpful.

But how then do you learn tactics?

My method: learn openings (not every single line by line of course, that would be impossible) and if you see a move by your opponent that looks like it is a bit "untidy" then there very well may be a chance of some kind of winning tactic- and there often is.

Gambits can also trick your opponent into foolish decisions, but I know a lot of people at higher levels are wise to them and just end up getting a free pawn and winning

Honestly I just ignored openings and played whatever opening I felt like playing based off whatever YouTube video showed up

I started out at 600

I'm low rated daily . . . 1261 . . .

But I suck . . .

I keep repeating my errors . . . Oh well! . . .

Well I am already I old player in chess I would say and I think I am a little higher than intermediate but I would really like to know my raiting because it just says that I'm 700 but I know that I am like a 1400 or even a little bit higher so I would like to know my real raiting to know how much I've improved but it just says 700

Well, im 450 elo and im bad

🙄

I used to play on chess.com when I was new to chess but then I started playing on lichess and improved a lot and i came back to chess.com and my rating is super low my friend his rating is 1000 and I can easily beat him so it there anything I can do to change my rating

It's critical to recognize that daily player influx can make ratings less accurate for instant progress. Instead, focus on personal growth and ask yourself if your current skills surpass those of a month or a year ago. Improvement isn't always reflected in ratings. Reflecting on your own development can provide a clearer picture of progress over time.

Friends are easier to beat than random pool

No u Smurf buddy

No pain - no gain, bro! :strong

200s and 2000s on this site are practically the same thing. ratings are rigged.

I noticed a definite change in quality of play starting around 900 EL(O. When I started, chess.com assigned me a rapid rating of 400. I got slapped around as I learned to play and fell into the 300s. Now I just play Daily games, which fits my goals and schedule better. Anyways, by mid-900s I found that there was a big jump in quality of play. Blunders became rare and players definitely know more opening variations.

It's easier to make people blunder when you get into higher ratings it's not rare it's prob just that you don't know how to make the position difficult yet

You mean cause you cheat

the only cheater here is you. I've looked at the accuracy at some of your games and you literally play like an engine.
