I have a very bad ranking and it is hard to get matches i just want to get to at least 800 if not 700!
That would be considered rating manipulation and isn't recommended ![]()

At least you did not suggest resigning...
...but nevertheless, do not try this at home (or anywhere).
But if you manage to earn one or two hard-fought legitimate draws, then it's perfectly alright.
That is considered cheating plus other person needs to lose points by drawing if you want to gain, so its also kinda selfish

A related question, if I were to start a game against a player ~50 points weaker than me and offer him a draw before the game so that I get my rating down from 2401 to a nice, neat 2400, would that be considered rating manipulation?
perma ban from chess imo
It can happen, especially in tournaments. A player, who is almost guaranteed of winning a tournament with a 1 point lead above the second-best player might offer a draw in the final game to a weaker player even if the opponent's rating is lower.

If you did it one time? Technically maybe, but not something that is likely to cause a problem.
I've found winning games helps my rating go up. You could always try that if you get stuck.
Dont be toxic bruh sheesh I was just asking.
I’m curious to understand what you felt toxic about @jjupiter6’s comment.
If you culd not see he was obviously being sarcastic because he thinks he's so good lul XD.
I believed he was being sarcastic, but my question has nothing to do with what i thought or felt. I am trying to understand your thoughts. So if I understand you, sarcasm and toxic are equal right?

No, you misunderstand. I interpret his sarcasm as a form of toxicity. By doing this he was clearly not meaning to be helpful or factual. He intention was to mock me for my question, which therefore is being toxic.
