Where is the poor sportsmanship group on the app?

I raged quit 3 games in tournaments so there’s a message saying that I need to play in the poor sportsmanship group

It's automatic, not an actual group. The pairing system handles it.

How do I get out of the poor sportsmanship group outside of playing friends? How do I find other poor sportsman? I had no idea that aborting games wasn’t aloud until this happened

Play fair, and eventually, the system will let you out of that player pool.

How do you know if you’ve gotten out of the poor sportsmanship group? A lot of my opponents still exhibit bad behavior

How many times per day can you rage quit before getting put in the poor sports pool? Sometimes you play people who are so obnoxious there's no other option.

Why all the rage. I understand not wanting to lose, but it’s just a game. I have had some players giving me some crap in chat, but I think it’s funny. There are much worse things in life than losing in chess or having a bad game.

why does it matter if there are worse things in life? Doesn't seem mutually exclusive to me.

I think it's better to let yourself be annoyed by things and to rage quit. Seems unnatural to do the opposite and it takes less effort overall and results in less emotional strain.

How about just rage quit after the game instead of mid game no it is not better to just rage quit if you do it during the game (of course stopping before you get tilted is typically a good idea but sometimes being tilted teaches you things depending on the person )

Just in terms of well being I think its better to do it during the game

Nope that's just getting into bad habits imagine if you left a boss meeting in middle of a conversion "cause your mad "

And from what I have seen it's actually a very unhealthy habit and makes people tilt even more than just playing out the game (even better resigning and then quiting instead of just quiting )

But unusually annoying players (as long as it isn't like toxicity in chat or spamming draws ) is very helpful for learning you have to be good at beating playing Styles u suck at )

Oh I think the difference is that you can get away with it which if you have the right perspective should result in getting over it quicker.

I don't think annoying players are particularly good or that it's a strong playing style
