i don't see gaining any points as winning or points deducted from me as losing, when i draw on here. I see it only as my rating is higher or lower. Do you agree with me? What do you think about points being gained or deducted when  you draw on here?

Well if a GM were to draw against a beginner (Extremely unlikely). It seems logical to add points to the beginner's elo right?

yeah, points should be added to their rating. i don't think the beginner's won any points, but just some points have been added. However, even a draw would be a great result for the beginner.
