Hmm ... Idk
Guys I lost 50 points of rating in one game. Anybody know how to fix this?
Sort:
The server probably reset. Don't see the 50 point loss though. When chess.com aborts a game the ratings stay the same.
Was it a daily game? Because you tend to lose more points in daily games.
Yes, I don't see the 50 point loss anywhere
Win 2 games
Try to win more

I was playing against a very similar rated player (Almost same rating) and if I lost I would lose 8 points of my rating. I didn't lose, in fact I was up by a knight and the game suddenly ended. It took away 50 WHOLE POINTS FROM MY HARD-EARNED RAPID RATING. Why? I couldn't report the player as the option wasn't even present and I WAS WINNING AND HE TOOK AWAY 50 POINTS. If anyone knows how to fix this please comment or friend me and chat with me about how I can fix this thing.
I had a bughouse game where i earned three points with a game that was only a little unfair to my opponents. My partner earned 200 points.

Daily games could decrease it by that much, Now that i think about it... How long did you join Chess.com?

you aren't funny. that joke is as old as Donald Trump.
um the only answer to the problem might be that the account is new or hasn't played many games, and so the glicko rd is high.
glicko rd is high = more points gained/lost when you play a game.

My Opponent Just lost 200 points in our recent game, what caused it? i got 1350 rated and he have 1400+ rating.. he lost from me, but 200+ points? thats absurd.
My opponent too lost 174 points in a 15min rapid game. Dont know what's behind this point deduction.

Actually @GM_chess_player gave the general answer above but who would read comments from 2021... As for your case: it was the very first game for that account, if that guy keeps playing regularly his rating changes per game will decrease and stabilise
