The op and #2 have all logged in during the past week, and #3 runs the operation.

The wonder is that I do believe this is my first post to this thread.

My candid opinion is that the rating system is by and large reliable, even here.

But, frankly, I care less and less about my ratings as time goes by.

For many, their main purpose is bragging rights, or worse, a cause too often for gross insults by those who have a higher rating.

Noblesse oblige, of course, applies when ratings are over 2700+.

They just smile modestly.

Thank you.  Everyone must have their bragging rights, if only a smile.  I even have mine, but modesty forbids.  I will do my best for those just beginning their journey.

My post omitted to answer your question.

I read your What as a Who.

The OP is the Original Poster.

Marvellous to relate, the first three are still extant, and not extinct.

Please do not let me detain you on your journey any further.

Good luck with it.

During registration, they ask for the level of skill, with which your initial rating changes...1800, if you're expert; 1200, if you're intermediate and 800, if you're a beginner.

and avoiding details like a true expert

i agree

Wow long topic very much post!

I'm presently rated by chess.com at 1385 and in the 79.9th percentile of daily chess. Is that possible with a rating as low as this to be in the 79.9th percentile of 6MM players? Your thoughts?

 The average daily rating is 1230 on this site.

My rating started out as 1000 not 1200. Is this supposed to be like this?

Depends how you gave your chess skill level during registration.

From what I know,

New                -----> 800

Beginner        -----> 1000

Intermediate  -----> 1200

Expert             -----> 1800
