Do you actually deserve your rating

honestly having a freaked up ego makes your rating worse, from my experience, because it’s better to lose from timeout than make a million blunders but oh well making a million blunders to not get timeout is engrained in my bad habits but i’m just giving advice.

I don't really feel like I deserve my rating because I don't even know how I improved after reaching 2300, and often I play games like an 1800. I play the occasional smart game though.

Some people get lucky at get to high elo and other people are unluckier and get to lower elo.

for example on duolingo chess most of the time people deserve much lower elo. i am 700 rapid on duolingo, but the people on duolingo play like 320.

i dont know what causes me to blunder more on chess.com than duolingo but people on duolingo blunder a lot. so i take their free pieces.

if you feel like you don’t deserve your elo just play more daily games.

At the end of the day your rating only really matters if you want to make a career out of chess.

Though I would argue that chess gets the more fun the better you are at it.

Yes and I would to thank all of those who so graciously donated rating points to me by playing poor chess.
