Rating Scale (Elo)
Rapid Rating:
2500+: Congrats, you are a chess engine
2200-2499: You literally have a machine inside your head
2000-2199: Chess is your life. You are chess, and chess is you
1800-1999: Very dangerous player
1600-1799: Quite strong player. Still occasionally loses to an 8 year old
1400-1599: Decent, must have played for a while
1200-1399: Average
1000-1199: You can win against the average 12 year old
800-999: Experienced newbie
600-799: Newbie
400-599: Have you ever heard of checkers?
100-399: It looks like chess really isn’t your thing. How about we go out and get some Chinese food instead?

Also it’s not a good idea, to make sarcastic remarks with regards about people with lower ratings than yourself. Remember that you were also once a rookie .
