Is Chess.com Rigged to Keep You Stuck??

Saying the site is rigged is one of the best coping mechanisms for chess players seeking an excuse for their current rating.

Obviously, if you really do deserve a high rating, you will get there.

Yes chess.com is 100% rigged if you win sure you get higher rating and therefore higher rating player but those they give you as an enemy are in much higher elo than you are overall

It's true and sometimes you even lose more games than you have won. Actually, it's awful. And here is a piece of advice that you should stop playing right after you lose one game.

A lot of players feel this way at some point, especially after a brutal win streak followed by a sudden crash, but it’s almost certainly not a secret system trying to trap you at one rating. What’s really happening is that rating systems naturally push you toward opponents close to your current strength, so when you win several games in a row, you start facing stronger and more confident players almost immediately. On top of that, psychology plays a huge role: after a streak, people often play faster, take more risks, tilt after one loss, or subconsciously expect to keep winning. The reverse happens during losing streaks too, where lower-rated opponents suddenly feel “easy.” Chess improvement also isn’t linear, most players bounce up and down within a rating range before stabilizing higher. So the pattern feels suspicious, but it’s more likely a mix of matchmaking, variance, and human psychology than Chess.com secretly forcing losses to keep people addicted.
