If I can adopt a master, (I can beat samay 10-0, pretty sure, he is 1400 but he is weak), I cant adopt any 1400 but Samay is an exception LOOOOOL, then even I should be called a master but at the end of day I am unrated.
What is this new "Master Title" ? Staff please read this !!
Sort:

Lol why do people get shocked, my rapid rating is 1650 , so being unrated is no big deal also after Covid no tourney held thats why, see my rapid rating on 19 October 2020 (yes 1year ago), I was 993 rapid and thats why I am unrated.

I think they award the title to certain "teachers" or famous people. I find no problem with it, since it doesn't really mean anything in regards to your playing strength
Still isn't having a set of criteria bring consistency........like famous as in how much? Overnight Celebrity?Teachers? Chess teachers only or the other that play casually too? How much experienced teacher?

Firstly he isn't a "teacher " by any means. Maybe he could teach newbies how to move the pieces. Plus I dont think being famous should entitle you to any title. I know it doesnt matter much....but when others who are better than you...who are doing a lot for chess see it ....they would be demotivated and it would be an injustice to them.
Yeah that is true. there are far many people who have dedicated so much to to chess Anonymous_Dragon

uhh rishabh there is NO way u can adopt samay, also why do u care if he gets some random title? if u r jealous bcoz of this just do what samay did to get the title-get 500k subs, lose against 100 rated players, bring a few WCs on stream etc, i am sure u can do that xD
Yes but see lichess offers the LM title only to people who play like elite, beat many GMs and are possibly streamers,
