Although my USCF has plummeted recently, it remains higher than yours. I'm old enough to get the senior discount at some restaurants. I prefer Correspondence chess, although I play plenty of bullet and blitz. 2 1 seems better at my age than 1 0. For blitz, I prefer 3 0 while using a mouse, and 5 0 on my iPad.
I don't understand the point of Online Chess...Live Chess is superior...

Ah, the ignorance of youth. No offense.
When I don't have a lot of time play chess but don't want a bullet/blitz, it's grteat to be able to jump on and make a move in an online game. It gives me something to look forward to throughout the day.
Honestly, it doesn't take a lot of ability to figure out the "point" of correspondence chess. Try harder.

It's kind of like the difference between going to the movies or watching a movie on t.v.. Yes going to the movies is a better experience but it sure is alot less hassle to watch a movie on t.v..
I like to do both.
Online (correspondence) chess can be ideal for players who like to think things through. Obviously you wouldn't see the appeal of that.
