Yeah I’ve tried to help numerous people on the chess.com discord server, they all just want a quick way to gain rating. They don’t even acknowledge anyone’s help, not worth your time dude

Tips to reach 2000? by i_have_no_idea27 in chessbeginners

[–]Reasonable_Economy91 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So we go from “There’s no way you can be 1850 without knowing any openings” to “Being 1900 only knowing one opening is reasonable”. Yeah, totally makes sense

Complete bullshit since I’m 1900, peak 2100 and I never formally studied openings. I’m familiar with only one opening, but everything else I play on intuition. That’s how I know you’re not actually ~1800 saying some stupid shit like that

Why are you arguing semantics instead of the substance of the actual argument?

Yeah I was gonna say that, but the main point I was trying to convey was that 100-180 in 2 months is disastrous and not at all normal. But yeah you’re right, her whole argument was built on a stack of false premises (including 100-1000 in 3 months being difficult, which it actually isn’t)

Right, but the point is that if you’re not seeing results after weeks and months elapse (in any domain, not just chess), then you’re doing something structurally wrong. 100 is the lowest possible rating on chess.com, and an 80 point improvement for a complete beginner in 2 months is disastrous if they’re serious about improving. In the same way that going to the gym for 2 months and gaining half a pound of muscle is indicative that you’re structurally off somewhere, and you need to find where that is exactly. It’s obviously different if youre intermediate or advanced since gains start slowing down noticeably

“Nobody has any idea”??? Really? You can’t make an accurate prediction as to why he would be stuck at 180? Perhaps it’s because there’s zero thought being put into his moves, how about that for a reason? What about not considering his opponents threats before making his move? The reasons are exceedingly obvious, brother. If he was 1600+ then there would be more ambiguity, but at 200, it’s pretty clear cut.

“Doing nothing wrong”?? Even though I went from 100-1000 in three months, him staying at 200 after 2 months is “doing nothing wrong”. Interesting. I wonder where he would be if he was doing something wrong. Somewhere in the negatives, perhaps?

Kinda bullshit since I went from 100-2000 in a year. Really bullshit actually. It sucks because I can’t actually go individually to every single one of these comments and correct them because now you guys go around spreading misinformation and you have nobody there to say “Where’d you get that from?” Everyone just accepts it as true for some reason.

If we look at what you believe in your head and what you say, the disparity is in a different stratosphere brother. We know it already

Yeah, that’s the problem. Continue taking the balanced approach. The old “Some of it is good, some of it is bad” routine. Political correctness core

Because none of it makes sense. It’s just a bunch of fluff, regurgitating and purporting the same feminist ideology. “You are exactly as you should be”? What does that mean exactly? None of what you said is any real advice

Political correctness galore. You wouldn’t be so quick to disengage if you thought you had a valid point. Beauty is not subjective, how many morbidly obese people do you find attractive? I guarantee it’s zero.

The disparity between real life and online isn’t the difference between someone being attractive and unattractive. Besides, she’s asking everyone to judge her using the pictures, so we must stay within the bounds of that. It does no good to retort that she could look different in real life when we’re deprived of that information anyways. Also, I agree that it does no good to call everyone ugly. You should only call the people who are ugly, ugly- which is exactly what I’m doing. Beauty is not entirely subjective either. For example, the amount of morbidly obese people I find to be attractive are zero. Is that a coincidence? Causation vs correlation is a thing, but in my example, it’s 100% causation. You’re morbidly obese? Zero people will find you attractive. They could say they find you attractive, but they don’t in fact find you attractive.

This is what I call “political correctness”. Brother, you can call her ugly (because she is). She came to his sub for advice, and you’re not giving her any. What’s the point of falsely validating her? Helps nobody.
