Rating 2000

chess.com rating of 2000 is a joke

How come i chomped on hanging pieces to 2400 then???

Because you didn't, it's just a gimmick you made up for attention online.

Also you may not realize but 2000 blitz on chess.com used to be a strong rating, it would be about the same as 2000 in real life. Now it seems to have gone the way of lichess and it seems to be about 400 points higher than it used to be. Every player has gone up a lot in ratings points from Hikaru downwards. The reason is they want people to think they're improving so they keep coming back. It's about squeezing people for as much time and money as possible - and obviously they can't do this forever.

But still calling it a joke is just rude, people have different abilities and some people watch tv when they're playing or are trying to play the "best" move not just the one more likely to win and being paranoid about not losing pieces.

While in some ways relatively speaking it is a bit of a joke, like I don't get why you want to go there. You know like, you don't go to the special ed class and talk about how the math they're doing is so easy.

So I suggest you just stop this chomping on pieces nonsense. You're doing nothing of value. Everyone knows that if you watch your pieces really closely and play paranoid you could get better results in blitz, but few people actually want to play that way. Seems you're on your own, we like losing pieces. Now just stop.

you're saying people are hanging pieces yet you say you can't chomp on them to get to 2400 in blitz?

hanging pieces in one what exactly 1 2 3 moves? or just in one I mean the regular player has to hang something in one atleast once a month I mean time scrambles cannot be avoided no ?

I never said 2200+s hang pieces, I said 2000s do these days with 3 minutes 2 seconds increment. However 2200+ won't hang without good reason (under time pressure for example). And even 1800s I don't think are just going to leave them hanging for no reason with plenty of time. For what it's worth my mouse has been acting up recently and I have to click twice to move, which is offputting to me and I've just bought a new one.

I saw a 2400 miss m1 but thats just one game out of dozens ive watched I could be biased

I'm a 2400 blitz player, and I miss things all the time. Sometimes I'm distracted. Other times, I'm focused, but my brain is simply not working very well.

But to reach 2400 one needs more than just the ability to spot hanging pieces or one-move mates. You also need to know how to play chess to a decent degree - which is knowing what to do with all those "other moves" that happen in the meantime ... I think strong players sometimes forget about all the knowledge they've accumulated over the years - knowledge that less experienced players haven't yet developed.

yeah 2400 needs decent tactics and knowing what to do I got crushed my self last year by one in like 17 moves

the only tactic i needed to climb to 2400 blitz is to chomp on hanging pieces

you dont go for checkmate sometimes or you chomp on hanging kings ?

I never studied endgames in my life

you fell off badly untilt yourself

I dont even remember the last time ive had such an endgame cause the game ended before then by a hanging piece

It's all relative. We all have gaps in our knowledge and understanding that separates us from those higher-rated.

I would get crushed by a 2800 in a similar way, I'm sure - it would look like I don't even know how the pieces move ...

Then imagine how those 2800-rated masters feel when they get paired against Hikaru in Titled Tuesday. He usually just shreds them apart without even trying, while bopping his head and singing badly to his headphones ...
