There's no time to think about moves, if you main blitz you're a terrible player not much more to say

I completely agree I even tell people, that I'm a beginner and they start accusing me of using an engine , orhers say I'm insulting other beginners etc... what's wrong with people now days

The chess communities going so far downhill from the time I started playing years ago, very sad to see, chess used to be a gentleman's game of thought

There are way better ways to brag about reaching 2300 than to make up lies. You are not a beginner, nobody ever said you're a beginner, and there is no one on the planet who I their right mind would consider you a beginner.

Chess.com Blitz is by far the most accurate and respected rating besides OTB, chess.com seems to be attempting to change this with their recent changes to the rapid rating, but for now blitz is the most respected rating, and it's not even close

People's ratings are stable so it's not random (luck based). The math says every 200 point gap represents a 3 to 1 probability, and since ratings exist over a ~3000 point range this means it's not due to internet connections or general movement speed... so how are the games being predictably won and lost over such a large range if ratings don't track with chess skill?

Maybe more to the point, why are classical FIDE ratings strongly positively correlated with chess.com blitz ratings?

Yeah, he's a weird troll. Unfunny and uncreative. Most people ignore him or have been blocked by him... since he keeps it up over years I assume there's something pathological...

Speed chess is fun but it's only for entertainment purposes, not good for improvement.

Yeah, certainly seems like that. His last half a dozen topics are just low effort attempts to fish for compliments about his 2300 rating. I notice he's already blocking me, I wonder if it was preemptive or whether I've p!ssed him off in the past on one of his troll topics and just forgot who he was because of how uninteresting his trolling is

I'm not bragging .

You should of read my other posts, where I clarify myself as a beginner, because in Russia we have a special day on Sunday in our local chess clubs just for "noobs" a noob day basically anyone who's under 2300 . 

But now I've crossed 2300 I'm not a beginner anymore I'm an intermediate player.

2200s are not beginners.

That's a fact

Trolls don't speak the truth, I do !

All I do is speak the truth and people keep attacking me on this site such as look another troll oh look engine or look he's insulting other beginners,look he wants to brag about his rating etc. .....

Then I ask this people show me one example please and all they do is just continue accusing without evidence.....

The truth is I'm humble  individual who works hard and recently become an intermediate player, but so many people just jelous instead of working hard themselves . 

I don't even understand what they jelous about me and my rating just an intermediate level and recently I've been a beginner myself.

If you want to jelous, why me !? Look at hikaru's ratimg is so much better all around that's a real pro .

Well come to Russia and tell this to my local chess club , they will probably laugh at ypu , because you are pather trying to brag how good you are with your 22 hundred. 

It's Russia remember in our local club can come 3 to 4 GM's on a normal day to play blitz plenty of IM's and tons of FM's and many many players withouttitles who's FIDE rating can be well over 2500 I've seen it myself personally , that's EXACTLY WHY we have a special day for noobs on Sundays anyone can participate as long as your rating below 2300
