OK, the ratings are really irrelevant. So we all dropped like a rock. So what? I for one am very happy with the new system, and I've only been at it for an hour. I changed the difficulty rating to Standard instead of Hard, and I'm enjoying the puzzles a lot more. They're challenging still, but doable. And let's be honest! If I'm rated 1100 in rapid, there's no way I'm 2550 (my maximum) in puzzles! If they're more accurate now, I can be pretty happy with 1802!

I too have it set to Standard. Why? USCF B player. I want tactics closer to what I will encounter in my games. Its not going to do me any good practicing on 2000-2500+ tactics since I wouldnt even know how to see them or create them.
