Neverending lag.

So: I have previously posted several times regarding to lag. I don’t know why aren’t more players commenting on lag on the site. While I do play on mobile most of the time, I would go as far as to say that lag on computer is trivial. Maybe I am just being a huge baby and will take me as a sore loser, but then again it only gets me depressed to see how my chess com rating won’t just go farther than 1900, when on some other sites I am up to 2200 and that on bad days, constantly beating titled players. Talking only about bullet. It is rather impossible particularly considering that my internet connection is way overkill and top notch. I do keep getting back to this site no matter how angry lag makes me because of the great contents, articles, functionalities and overall capacities of the site but no matter how good the site gets it never ceases to amaze me how devastating is lag here. So as I said this is not about being sore for losing on time or getting owned on time scrambles. So I am not upset about getting outplayed or outmanoeuvred or out timed even. Not even angry at those players that kill time by moving the same piece back and forth, to flag me. Not angry about getting outricked or getting owned on cheapos and downright rude play. I am totally and exclusively angry being outlagged. And yes, my connection is fantastic and no those players aren’t really playing faster than me (outrageous to see how they take seconds to move and then their clock never runs down but just mine) and no my devices are not lacking. And yes I have already checked my ping on other sites and it runs flawless. It is on chess coms side. Maybe the servers are too slow, maybe programming is heavy, maybe too much traffic. I don’t know. Premium subscription does not seem to make lag go away either so why bother.

 

You local connection is only part of the equation and anything from other processes on your client, to connection issues between you and the site could be at the root of the lag you are seeing. Pings to other sites will likely only share a small portion of the path, so while a useful tool to troubleshoot, likely doesn't capture enough of the same path to give a definitive answer.

 

There are some things that can be done to minimize issues on your end but if there is a problematic connection between you and the site, there may not be much you can do except maybe play with some increment or longer time controls.

The site only forgives a certain amount of lag as well.

 

In regards to your rating, comparisons across pools isn't particularly useful. Some sites start with a different rating and it wouldn't be uncommon to see their pool of players being higher rated. Ratings are really only valid within pools, though there may be some correlation between them.

Update 

So, It turns out that I was correct in regard to ratings. My chess rating was consistenly lower on chess.com and I am in fact a 1900- 2100+ player. And then staff tried to educate me on statistical distribution of pools and whatnot, which I was aware already.  I´m a statistician, for god´s sake. Couple of weeks later chess.com owns up to their mistake and readjusts bullet ratings. So, yeah, apparenty I was not just being childish or complaining for the sake of complaining. There was a bit of truth to it.
