Anyone ever heard of this FIDE ranking system? i was playing a new chess.com member and checked their profile and it showes a FIDE rating under her online chess ranking? it was pretty high, should i be intimidated?

At first they welcome you to the fake elo rating rooms. Just not to be scared and not to run away. If you become a member they show you the true elo rating of members! A 2000 elo it is equal to 1500 elo in the reality room. I saw many members daimond 1200 elo but they were very strong and I lost many games against!!
