I suck, so I quit

Thanks for being a (mostly) positive community guys. I suck so I quit. Not even going to bother with lessons, bot games, or puzzles. My brain is too tightly coiled to become good at chess. And I never learn to take my time. So I quit.

We all started for enjoyment, if you're not enjoying don't play. I'd just say don't take it personally...in the West we have a cultural association between chess and intelligence, but it's just a game.

I lost pretty much every game I played for over a year. I started at FICS.

If you feel like you're tilting, please take a break, try something else for a while like puzzles, reading etc and come back when you feel better

The point of chess is to have fun. To have a good time when you play chess. I myself will never become a grandmaster. I have realized that, but I still enjoy playing. And even if you have a low rating, you are actively using your brain when you play. And that is a good thing, isn't it?

If I can't beat a bot, that's not fun. Constantly losing isn't fun, I don't think I am great. but surely I am better than this

There's nothing wrong playing at a lower level and not really improving. There's absolutely no need to learn and study, you can just play for the sake of play. However, if you don't enjoy it, quitting is of course fine.

You need to learn to blunder check always and think so that you can practice what you learned

If you're trying to get better at chess then you're good at chess. You don't suck.

Play longer time controls, like 15|10. Always ask yourself this question before you move:
Does my move hang a piece?
With this method, you can get to 300-400 in weeks.
