i always just look at the rating of whichever mode they play the most. i care more about my rapid rating than my blitz rating because i prefer rapid. of course, in real life, classical chess ratings are usually the most important.

 Rapid is similar like classical standard game. Somebody play 10 minutes and somebody play like 20, 30 or 60 minutes rapid which is exactly like classical standard game for that your main rating and  real rating is your chess.com's rapid  rating. Just forget about hikaru his rapid is kinda 100 elo- more than classical because he can play such a good game in low time but average player rapid rating is same with classical rating.

Who cares? Too many people are obsessed with ratings. Unless you are making a living from chess or something, just play and have fun

Daily will get you closer to a classical (real chess) otb rating representation. Unless your rapid is 30mins+ every game. Maybe a little under do to people plugging moves into engines here and there.

If your rapid is 10 mins games. It’s leaning more towards blitz/speed chess. So it probably belongs in that category.

That’s just the way I split it up. I feel like they are two different things unless you are are 2000+. There I don’t the the separation between the two are as different.

Alot of good blitz guys get torn up at longer time controls. Lack of deep tactical calculations. The same goes for classical players not seeing the board quick enough or analyzing different moves for to long.

If by main rating you mean the average rating, you can actually look it up in stats. In rapid, the average rating is 887.78. In bullet, it's 959.95. In blitz, 876.49. Look at your stats, then click on worldwide players and it will show you the numbers and a graph of the rating distributions. Finally answer, most guys here are trying to sound "smart" saying, there's no sucha thing -_- when all the dude wanted was the avarage
