Lots of times I think “I’m having a nice night, let’s ruin it with some chess”
How hard is 1600 rating?

For me personally I started 4 years ago at 700, took a 1 year break, came back at 1200, took a 2 month break, go to 1500 and got my acc hacked.

Not hard if you practice well. I have 2000+ rating with not much effort at age 14. Just practice at our weak points not studying everything.

No. You all are wrong. That's pure trash. 0-500 are people who know nothing about chess. 500-1000 is new to chess people. 1000-1500 is pure beginner (where I am). 1500-2000 is intermediate. 2000-2500 is advanced. 2500+ means you are a god.

Yes. Kind-of because that "YOU ARE 1800!" feeling is lost when after 5 games you are back to 1700. And also, that dopamine is lost when you are brutally stuck at the same level.
played 14 games and gave up lol
