Stuck at 400 ELO and I've been playing for a year.

Not really, in both cases you just don't even try to use anything close to opening principles, blunder and miss hanging pieces. But sometimes, both of you look around and find all the low hanging fruits.

yoooo jebko you’re back long time no see

yea he did

 to get a higher rating, watch gothamchess with extremely high levels of orange juice and put a toothpick in your mouth

(or, just.. do puzzles and lessons)

Take toothpick in ur back hole.

I mostly use the wayward queen attack, I'm also 400 elo and most of the times I win with that opening,how it helps

im stuck in the 500's yet when i started chess.com i was in the 600's how have i only gotten worse. right now i do the  Nimzowitsch-Larsen Attack followed with the sicilian. is that good or should i change my opening???

Its funny im stuck at 500's yet i beat people who are in chess clubs at my school and other friends that are above 500's

as a 1100 that has gotten there in around 3 months starting from 500, i'd say that you should literally just follow opening principals and dont attack too early, opponents can easily counterattack and now you have a piece doing absolutely nothing and you're in a bad position. 

at the 400-500 level only play 10 minute rapid games and really take your time to stick to the principles, if you find a tactic then cool play it. whenever you lose, review the game. chessbrah's building habits series is really good for this level. make sure you check out the extras to see even more examples on how to play well. relax and have fun, it's very important to have a good state of mind when playing.

(i found the first two videos to be espesially helpful and didnt really bother with the others)

puzzles are also pretty great for improving but shouldnt be your main priority until around 600. in addition, if you do find a tactic, always DOUBLE CHECK them. a tactic i love in some of my games was trying to do some sort of sacrifice then forking a bishop and knight with a pawn but i sometimes mistakenly let my bishop hang and now im down a piece.

i also really like just watching some instructive chess content and trying to guess what might be the next move. always ask why they made the move.

play lots of games! never resign and don't be scared of losing rating points. have a good day

but i do admit that i have a lot of time on my hands, so it may take a bit more time for you to improve if you dont have as much. aaand i almost forgot that you should watch some video on important chess terms so you will actually know what people are talking about when they talk about them. also learn traps, not to play them but to know how to deal with them. have a great day once again.

1. develop pieces

Yet another person complaining about how they're only 200-400 ELO and will never get good at Chess even though they've only been playing Chess for less than a month

What else is new

1. How do you know I'm a guy

2. This isn't even my first account (It's authorized by Chess.com btw)

3. You only play 60 minute games yet 90% of your games end in less than 20 minutes, and in less than 20 moves, what's the point of even playing 60 minute games if you're not gonna use ANY of that time to think?

4. You've literally made the fact that you're "Never gonna get good at Chess" your whole entire personality lmao, you even put it as your bio and everything, how incredibly cringe

I'm just saying, don't whine to the ends of the Earth about never being good at Chess if you've only been playing for less than a month, don't whine if you only play 60 minute games yet lose all of your games in less than 20 minutes and in less than 20 moves which is a sign of horrible time management and not using any of that time to think, etc.

Almost all of the reasons you're not improving are your own fault

I've checked your entire match history. Your account is only 17 days old, and you've played 674 games, 95% OF WHICH ARE 60 MINUTE GAMES. Do you understand what the problem is there? You're not improving because you are SIMPLY NOT USING ANY TIME TO THINK ABOUT ANYTHING. The fact that you've played 600+ 60 minute games in only 17 days, means that ALL of those games are ending insanely fast, just as fast if not faster than a 10 minute rapid game

Instead of realizing the things that you are doing that are preventing you from improving, and not doing those things anymore, you just come onto the forums and bawl your eyes out melodramatically about how you'll never be good. And yeah, IF you keep up this victim mentality and this mentality of refusing to recognize the mistakes that you're doing and working to fix them and refusing to genuinely try to improve and also to put in the time in order to improve, then yeah, no wonder you'll never get good

Yeah at this point I can't help but feel that you're a troll

U do capitalize on people's blunders but you could work on not blundering an do try planning ahead a few moves.. you could work on defense guarding your pieces better.. I see you dropped a 800 ranked player after he left his queen open nice game

Reading something does not make it true. Nor does one persons experience. And it certainly doesn't mean you are qualified to go around claiming it is facts.
