Is my rating bad?

Is 1540 in blitz decent? ive been playing chess for about a year now and i cant seem to get past 1600 this is my second account and im about to just giveup 

The good news is, yeah, that's decent.

The bad news is you probably wont be world champion

 

There are plenty of people who play for years and don't get to 1500-1600 so don't worry about it. Play because you enjoy it. That's also the secret to improving... if you don't like it then there's no point.

If you have to ask...

I have been playin for a month and my blitz is only 1000. Good job!

1500-1600 is club level, so it's ok.

you doing great I am here for +3 years & u can see I am also stucked here between 1550-1600...so you are better than me...Atleast...

That’s great I’d b happy to get to 900

I completely agree. I doubt most of us dream of being GMs/world champions, so why not have fun?

I will say that if you "train" well and learn from your mistakes, then your rating will eventually go up. Although experience reveals to me that this comes in bursts. Rating commonly climbs fairly steady, then skyrockets up in a burst or drops off a cliff - then it equilizes some. It can be hard for an aspiring chess player to handle the many high and lows of the ratings because they want to reach a dream rating and never turn back. Luckily, I find my greatest rating bursts up to follow out of large drops. I can't accurately say how many times I will essentially drop 50 rating points and then gain 100 in the next burst. 

The key (difficult sometimes) is to not worry about rating too much. Many say you should ignore it all together and just play; I would not go that far as rating is still a way to display improvement. I understand where they are coming from, but I think the key to handling these rating fluctuations is to be aware of them - while also not letting them bother you too much. 

Continue learning, fixing your weaknesses, having fun with the game of chess ... and your chess rating will paradoxically improve.

Good job, nice rating

Like everything, the answer is "it depends." 

Is it too hard to look for the average blitz rating in chess.com? 

I'm 1000 in blitz and I've beenplaying for a year

Perhaps they are unaware of "stats" like "percentile" displayed via their "profile": keep in mind that the original poster created their chess.com account earlier this year.

Additionally, chess.com percentile only calculates on ... (gasp) chess.com

Maybe they wanted to know if the rating was "bad" in a general sense (OTB casual, online, tournament level, club level and so forth). 

Obviously time controls have different percentiles, but most "average" (circa 50 percentile) ratings on chess.com are in the ballpark of 1000-1200 rating. Just know that this statistic includes everyone with an active account; if you go to a chess club, or even a party for that matter, the Calibur of chess players are likely to be higher. This is because players under the 50 percentile are more likely to not play at a gathering (like a club or party) and play it off by just watching or claiming they don't really play chess. Depending on the pool of players present, the average rating at some random party may be around 1400, a chess club 1600, a higher club/chess hustlers maybe 1800 and so on. Likewise the average percentile at a FIDE invitational event might be around 2500 rating with all GMs present. 

Average has everything to do with the comparison of those around you; all ratings are relational in nature! 

System.exit(1);

try not playing blitz

I can't quite remember Java... something like...

int count = line.length();

If
(
(count > charlimit);
System.out.println("Error. Wall of text.");
System.exit(1);
)

I payed blitz on chess.com for 2 years until now, my rating still fluctuates from 1300 to 1700. 4 weeks ago I was 1700, 2 weeks ago I was 1300 and now I am 1575. I know that rating fluctuate but it looks too much for my case, or maybe 1300 and 1700 in chess.com has the same level like its can be same person such as me

I couldn't find when you were rated 1300, and I couldn't find when you were rated 1700

Looks like you do fluctuate between 1400 and 1600 though.

Beautiful. You just need some {}

And instead of doing an innocent system exit we may think about making Java run a command trough the cmd to turn off their damn computer so they learn not to do it ever again!

 

Think about it, are you able to really grasp and explain how you made it to the level you are now? I can sort of understand how I reached 1400 (And I’ve been over 1500), but really every time I have crossed a mile stone, 1100, 1200, 1300, it kind of felt like I woke up one day and was better. The one thing that feels like it stands out is analysis. I had a long period where I plateaued at I think 1200 and what seemed to break it was, I began to analyze my lost games, at least some of them. There have been moments during an analysis where I thought “wow, I didn’t see that move,” but for the most part It’s just a boring exercise I perform and then all of a sudden I seem to be a little better the next day or a couple of days later. It’s as if my brain passively absorbs better technique or something through the analysis of games.

Still, the fact that I’m not entirely sure how I made it to the level I’m at is unnerving at best. If I woke up to a losing streak tomorrow and ended up back at 1000 I’d be like… “Well darn.”
