Is 1100 considered a respectable and above average rating?
Agree with BigChessplayer665
Yeah, but I still defeated that dude so he doesn't really have much to say on that topic
How does this make him a less knowledgable chess player, just because you beat him. That's just trash talk.
Hello! Hoping for answers
I think 1100 Rapid is in the top 15% on the website, so yes it's a good rating.
People have a lot of alt accounts. For example, I have a 700 elo alt account, which is why the average rapid rating is under 700.

Exactly the claims "no I'm not trying to boast I'm just stating a fact lol "
He makes it sound like trash talk lol then pretends it it is not

I don't think so alot of 2000+ have plenty of alts
1100 is an advanced beginner. Many people play chess for decades and never reach that level. Everyone who studies chess exceeds it quickly. If you care about rating, study to improve.
Do tactics (preferably from books that arrange the problems in an instructive manner).
Learn the games of Greco, then Morphy, then Capablanca. Those should get you over 1600.
Learn checkmates.
1100 is above average among beginners. It is above average on this site. It is near the bottom among adult tournament players, but above average in childrens’ tournaments.
Learn checkmate patterns.

ya but i am happy with my rating.I have other work to do also.I will try to play but 1600 seems to much...
I consider 1600 players to be pretty bad at chess but I guess everyone disrespects heavily lower-rated players. Anyway 1100 is a decent rating to have if you're not playing tournaments.
Yes!
1,100 is a very respectable beginner ranking.
1,100 is slightly below average beginner ranking.
Average Beginner ranking is 1,200.
—————————
I break down the ranking into following categories:
- Novice is below 1,000
- Beginner is 1,000 to 1,399
- Intermediate is 1,400 to 1,799
- Advanced is 1,800 to 2,199
- Masters 2,200+
—————————
So yeah - you would be above Novice and close to middle area of Beginner.
