1800 is bad at chess? Is that a sardonic way of bragging?

Sorry if it seemed that way, I changed it... and what does sardonic mean?

Okay, I'm rated lower than you, so I can't really help, but if I had to take a guess.... endgames!!!

To get better you need to know what mistakes you are making and then improve your game so as to lessen those kinds of mistakes.

Do you know what mistakes you are making?

A general way to improve is to studying and improve your tactics as a player rated 1800 usually is not so good in tactics.
