I was recently suspended for 60 minutes from chess live. I just recently got a PM (attached) saying I was given a strike for sandbagging/rating manipulation. I understand why this could happen. 1. This is the first time I have played rapid in like half a year, or that I resigned against a 1100 and found in open challenges a 1300 which I accepted. The reason I did this was because I wanted a harder challenge, because it had been a while since I had played rapid (I started back again yesterday) and I had won a tournament, but it was <1199 and I felt underrated, so I tried playing stronger players, and then I get kicked for violating community guidelines, and then the PM from CHESSCom. Please help me.

60 minutes is nothing, just don't do it next time, you learn your lesson.

If you have not played in 1/2 a year then your glicko rd should be high enough where you get 30-50 points per game. 3-5 games at 10 mins is not too bad. My glicko rd has settled, so I get 8 per game. Also I would just have to get better to get +150 lol.

fyi they were 30 minute games and i only got like 10 rating - 20 per game. so it;s not easy.

Everyone: omg why did they give you a strike

You were losing many games in a row, and in many, you didn't even make a move 

What counts as sandbagging on chess.com

You can set your rating restrictions in

Settings > All settings > Live Chess > Set it in Incoming and/or outgoing

So no offense, but you did deserve the strike

I mean

look at how many 0's there are.

a 0 means a game with no moves, and all losses

josephyossi

what.. i didn't see those games, they didn't pop up in live/ 

dev_the_pro

Then you can maybe blame your poor internet connection/ high lag

You should reach out to support@chess.com if you feel the strike was in error

josephyossi

i already did.
