2200s rarely hang pieces or make mistakes that most people on this website will find.

2200s either blunder a lot when they are low on time, or if the blunder is sneaky and requires calculation to punish.

To people lower than 1500, most likely the mistakes that 2200s make are not going to be spotted.

2200s seem to be doing pretty ok with the game, there are some titled players in this range, but not a lot. Who are really the pros at this game on this website?

Then ask anyone above 2400, they are really pros at the game, even if they aren't titled.

2200 is top 10,000. Very good but also a long way from making a living from playing Chess.

Which time control are you going by? Rapid?

Because as of writing I am 2403 in blitz, and I just squeaked by top 10,000.

Rapid is very confusing it's the area where a bunch of cheaters end up being plus the pool is smaller you could probably get anywhere from 1900 ish in tb strength to around Im level in rapid

2200 is stronger than most amateurs.

But it's weaker than most professionals.

So it exists in a middle-ground of sorts - that division between hobby players and serious competitors.
