Another great proof that ratings below 2000 mean nothing on this site, and anyone can beat anyone. Been 1700-1800 on a correspondence-like chess site, and here stuck at 1200 in 10 minute rapid, I can easily see many people in the low 1000 sometimes play better than many 1800s I've played. This site is a joke.

Btw here's another great example from a few days ago, a 1500 player beating a titled Master in the chess arena in 10 minute rapid.

Going back to the 2000 guy from the OP - look at his past games. He's beaten 2000 ELO players but still lost to a 1250. Even more proof ratings here are a joke.

One sample game isn’t proof of anything. All three times I broke 2200 are because my opponent hung a piece and immediately resigned.

for example, a 2240 two days ago just gave me his knight. Then he resigned.

Look at this game first. There was no "stupid blunders". FM just was crushed by 1300  

Does that look like 1300 play to you?

Never in my life could I have played like black.

I, personally, can't believe that 1300 can play like this. But, again, it's just my humble opinion.

That 1300 do be using his time tho, unlike the 2400 blitz FM

"Super 1300 player" spent 54 seconds on "very complicated" 6.Bg7 move. After that he spent <10 sec on every move, even in complications...

truly superhuman.

i think you've been fooled there are some players here which their starting rating are 2000

Deranged

Nice work OP! This game does look super legit too. I could realistically see both a 900 and a 2000 playing like this.

Nope, the player he beat hovers around that same elo and is deserving of it.

Congratulations! You must be gifted.

The account was closed for cheating. So most likely he was no true 2000, played legit in this game and lost.

Wow it's been awhile since I created this forum.

since when was 1988 2000+

Before the game he was above 2000. After the game he lost 16 points making him 1988. It turned out what he did not play fairly in other games, so his account was closed.
