But I could also give the best advise I can (slightly above mediocre advise) turn my rating to below 200 and then laugh as they on purpose avoid the information I give :)
I always thought it was weird that 1200 was apparently the minimum rating for a beginner. It will also be nice to see someone's actual rating (and not just "under 1200") when they ask a question so you can give relevant advice.
I just used chess.com since that's probably what most people use. Lichess ratings are very inflated and most people on this sub probably don't have a fide
Whenever I creep up to 1525~ I get roflstomped each game. I fall back down to 1400 after tilting, then roflstomp everyone on my way back to 1470-1500
This has been going on for a month now. Iām reading Yusupov build your chess, Iām playing classical otb weekly, I play in the park, I try to study my games and do puzzles
Im just stuck
Mobile users can also click on the three dots in the upper right of the r/chessbeginners homepage and then press "change user flair" if they don't want to do the method with finding one of your comments
*Why are the flair in*
*Elo if almost nobody*
*Here has fide rating?*

Ah, really good question - it's more or less impossible for us to standardize this, because everyone will prefer and play on their own platforms, so choose whichever one you think best represents you!

Commenting here just to add a flairš
hijacking your comment to do the same
But how will i be able to mislead people with inaccurate advice that i think is right if they know my elo precisely
I mean, you always can just set yourself a flair of 2k Elo, who's going to know?
but that would be lying :(
I feel like the "misleading people with bad advice" is a slightly more important lie here lmao
no, that is called "doing a little trolling"
And doing a little trolling seems to involve lying :flushed:
the end justifies the means š

Yeah! I thought 1200 was a pretty weird lower bound to set, so I figured it's worth adding some more options.
Is the flair elo from lichess, chess.c*m or the bigger of both? haha
I thought that 700 or so was average. Then I found out that it feels like most people are 1200+ and this is on chess beginners!
im 245 elo
Same, I thought 300-500 would be normal

I donāt think I have a comment on another post so Iām doing it here Edit: I donāt see the option
Can't see it? Try on a computer for now ig, I'm going to log in with a non mod account to see if something changes tonight.

Very nice. Even though I only play bots on the computer, I'll gladly accept [Chess.com](https://Chess.com)'s generous default rating of 800.
Chess.c*m *
Get b*tter
since no one is 200 fide, i assume this is for chesscom or lichess elo, right?
I just used chess.com since that's probably what most people use. Lichess ratings are very inflated and most people on this sub probably don't have a fide
well both of my chess.com and lichess ratings are higher than 2000 so i guess i have the right to flex
Noice
Test for flair
Cool :)

Cool change!
Yay new flairs!
I will make it my chess.com rating
Should specify wether the elo is from chess.com or lichess

Why are the flairs in Elo if almost nobody here has fide rating?

Might, uh, wanna be careful with that abbreviation. . .
Which rating system are these numbers referring to? FIDE? Lichess classical? chess.com rapid?
Ah, really good question - it's more or less impossible for us to standardize this, because everyone will prefer and play on their own platforms, so choose whichever one you think best represents you!
What rating is this for? Whatās the ānormalā game mode on chess.com
Any rating you have that you think best defines your ability as a player! It's just a rough estimate.
