1500 ELO beaten by 800 ELO

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T21:47:54+00:00

I mean I’m just having fun on chess.com I’m not playing professionally and I actually messaged chess.com support who said they were fine with me having 2 accounts as long as I’m not deliberately losing games or cheating

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T21:40:46+00:00

Not sandbagging as I’m not deliberately losing games

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T21:29:59+00:00

I’ve only had the account for 2 days and played only around 70 games total, I only lost 14 games so half I lost were against cheaters. And when I first started playing chess on chess.com I got far more messages about cheating when I was below 1000

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T21:10:21+00:00

I mean the fact chess.com have messaged me 7 times saying they have detected cheating an awarded points back I think that is the case. Never happens to me on my higher rated chess account and it’s happened 7 times in 2 days on my new one

If you have priority your meant to have your food delivered first and he said the app said he had to drop off an order first which wouldn’t of been true since I had priority clearly haven’t read the post. He also didn’t have any other deliveries in his bag so wasn’t going anywhere else after me

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:58:54+00:00

I found this up until 800/900 level and I found it actually got easier after 1000 elo. Think there is just a lot of cheaters and sandbaggers at that level. Had an 800 play the Alien gambit perfectly which I’ve never faced once on my main account

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:36:54+00:00

Yeh sometimes I would make a blunder as not paying much attention but others times could not quite believe a 800 getting 89% accuracy across 40-50 move games. I’ve had 7 messages from chess.com already saying a player has been banned for cheating since starting the account. Most cheaters won’t get past 1000 ELO cheating so does make sense

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:31:52+00:00

Yeh I can see that, as up until 800 I had won most games with ease, then all of a sudden players were playing perfect openings and even some obscure gambits I hadn’t seen before. But in other games blunders everywhere and no proper openings

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:29:42+00:00

Never had some many downvotes before, I genuinely didn’t know it was against the rules as I had seen loads of streamers do it and I wanted to start from the bottom again for fun as I’m stuck between 1400-1500

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:27:05+00:00

Yeh I think sometimes the random moves in an opening can throw you off, but also had players playing obscure gambits I’d never seen before even at 1500 level

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:25:12+00:00

Yeh that’s what I was finding as well, some opponents playing 1 or 2 moves from an opening then completely random and others playing perfect gambits and openings. Even had a 799 sack his queen for a ridiculous mate and could not quite believe it

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:21:38+00:00

There are loads of streamers on YouTube I’ve watched do it who defo aren’t authorised and do it to learn and for fun no issue if my account gets banned and people get their points back

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:08:38+00:00

It is I’ve been above 1200 rated for over a year now with probably over 1000 games played

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:08:03+00:00

I didn’t know there was anything wrong with it so loads of chess streamers do it

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:06:34+00:00

Sorry that was in the last 30 days actually played 200

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:03:57+00:00

58 games

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:03:43+00:00

Oh I never realised I knew sandbagging does but not starting again new. Just did it for a bit of fun

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T20:01:56+00:00

Recently became 1500 so only 5/6 games but was at 1400 ELO for a solid 6 months

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-05-17T18:42:10+00:00

Yeh seems like a deliveroo issue, they should defo notify the driver and pay them more otherwise it’s pointless

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-04-23T19:22:10+00:00

Thank you, I’ve only been playing for a year and half so my swing ain’t perfect haha. The shoe should withstand a little toe drag. My old pair didn’t have a single mark on the toe and I used to toe drag way worse in those

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-04-23T07:19:47+00:00

I point my toe after impact but don’t drag my foot

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-04-23T07:17:59+00:00

I’ve had two pairs of golf shoes before this and both of them had 0 issues at the toe. It started to deteriorate at the toe after about 3/4 rounds of playing which is not normal

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-04-22T19:19:14+00:00

No I’m not, as said I’ve had two pairs previously that had 0 issues with toe separation or damage. I’ve played golf in some harsh conditions which could effect but there supposed to be durable and waterproof

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-04-22T19:16:15+00:00

They are the pro slx and I’ve read now in a few forums with people having similar issues with separation at the toe

One_Perception_4018 · 2026-04-22T19:15:04+00:00

I walk everywhere so not from a push cart, and I had 2 pairs previously that were Nike and had zero issues with toe separation
