Petition to shadowban all under 500 rated players from chess.com forums

I was 484 once, then I cooked and got to 732, from there many things happened, but I never went to 500

USCF of course

If it counts my blitz or bullet rating then its over for me. I'm crappy at faster chess games.

not just blitz

considering you havent played rated matches in a bit id recommend you use the bots and put them on custom time controls until you get the hang of playing quickly. or just continue to play slower rapid/classical until you get the hang of seeing tactics n stuff like that

This is exactly the type of person that agrees with the OP lol

no not really, and this is coming from what, some dumb SMO frog?

i mean it could seem that way if thats the only comment you saw when you first got on after a while. wouldnt blame em for making that assumption

Point proven XD

pretty true

I mean, OP is so smitten with their high rating that they fail to understand how people could be bad at chess.

Likewise, AGC is so desperate to flex his mediocre rating that he targets the few people in the forum with a rating lower than him.

Not to anyone in specific. He doesn't target, but it can look that way because most people interacting with him are lower than him on the elo chain. OP just doesn't like U500, but I don't think that's AGC's direct intention.

I didn't even realise we could use time controls with the bots!

You can! Click a bot and then "custom" and a ton of options will show up. One of those are "time controls". That was the only way I was able to beat the 3200 maximum bot, but lots of other bots are more adaptive and quicker. Magnus with 1 minute bulet still shreaded me! Do with that info what you will.

wow i played magnus like 10 times in bullet, and got crushed. miserably, lol

Is nobody noticing how this guy tried to use my profile picture as a valid argument? Dont you tell me that rating has something to do with maturity, because this high rated player is acting like a 5 yo

and calling you "dumb" instead of just correcting you doesn't help his case at all. could've just said "i don't support OP" and been done with the entire ordeal

...

I said bullet too

not really, people the agree with OP are like nerds, not blunt and smart people, ur just stuck in the past with that pfp.

My point proven XD.
