false ratings

It’s bizarre when you come up against a player of similar rating ie 1940 or so and they are absolute dog poo of a player blunder blunder blunder, then you look at their profile and the average win is against a 1700 player.

Please people set your table settings at Plus/minus 40 points that way you play similar strength players and don’t pad a rating.

 So if I look through your losses, I'm not going to find any games where you played like "dog poo?"

 

 

 

 

I see one where you lost a bishop + your queen and it's only move 12, hmm.

Maybe all of us (even you) play a game like that every now and then.

Umm...and just how is it that you feel entitled to tell me who I should and should not play? You seem to believe that it’s my obligation to make sure that my reported rating somehow matches my “true” rating, as if such a thing exists? Why? Just so that you have a better idea of how our game is going to go? Like it’s MY job to make sure YOU get what you want out of the time you spend here? Anything else I can do for you while I’m at it? Utter nonsense. I’ll play as I choose and if you draw me as an unwanted opponent, feel free to abort the game
