It is my understanding that you get a FIDE rating only if
1. being registered with a FIDE-affiliated national federation (e.g. via being a member of an national federation affiliated OTB club) and
2. participate in FIDE-rated OTB tournaments.

Mr TOMHAEGIN, thanks for the reply , my question is - i need fide rated player to get experience, i couldnt participate much tournament, but i expect some players here to play , but the reted players are not like to play standard games, mostly blitz!!! what to do?
Hi, you could join one of the long time controls group on here. Like the world standard time control group or the other Aww rats group or Heisman groups, as you are correct this site is mostly a blitz platform. Joining one of these groups is probably your best chance of getting a game of any decent time.

Joining Aww-rats or DHLC group (Dan Heisman) for long games here is definitely a good option. I played in there as well. Now that I have joined an OTB club, I play my longer games at the club and sometimes go to a tourney.
Sharfudeen, if you have the option of joining a club where you can play people face-to-face, I would strongly recommend to consider that. The live game has still a slightly different feel than an internet live-game. For practice it does not matter if your opponents have a (FIDE) rating or not.
You need a rating so you can post on my threads?
thanks for the solution which you are all mentioned, i try to follow the TOMHAEGIN's word that i have to play face to face in my city!!
