i played a bunch of chess game in bullets and they take me away 26 points every game, with people of my rating!!

that is not accetable! now when i win i have 8 points, so it's going to take ages to go back, i want my points back!!!! chess.com ANSWER

That's the way the Glicko rating system works if you either have few games in a pool or have a larger game in game play in a pool.

Your rating deviation (RD) value is higher so you'll see larger rating changes after games. As you play more games the magnitude if rating changes will decrease as the RD value decreases

I played yesterday! and the day before! and the day before again! and every win or loss was 8 points , why today it was different? this is not explained!

yes i know, that's why i just said that i play bullet yesterday and the day before, and it was true!

so still, the question remain, why today they take off 26 points

You hadn't played for a long time, so your RD value had increased. As you played more, that dropped again

I noticed the same thing. A friend and I discovered after about a year of knowing each other that we both had accounts on chess.com, so I played her a handful of games (actually less than a handful, I think). She was rated between 1000-1200, and I was 1811 at the time. Eventually I noticed that my rating had gone up 45 points, even though I had a massive ratings advantage and should not have have gone up at all really (maybe 1-2 points a game realistically at that rating differential). I did not keep playing to see how long it would take for this inflating factor to fade out.

So, in theory, I could just wait another 6-12 months, play another person rated 600-800 points below me, gain 50-100 ratings points, and rinse and repeat. In a few years I would be well over 2000 rating having never risked a thing. Given that increasing a few hundred ratings points in a few years legitimately takes a lot of hard work, this seems like a horrifically bad design. The RD factor should fall off sharply as the ratings gap increases, and it should decay faster overall to prevent this potential "stop and go" exploit.

If my rating could be reset to 1811 without sandbagging, I would do so. I don't want handouts.
