I'm out
I sweat to god I am too stupid to play this game. I'm done. Cancel me from this room. Ban me please. I don't get it. I'm done!
New member... Old man! 😂
Hello from the UK! I am 77 years old this year and obsessed with chess. I started learning in 2020 and probably sit somewhere between 1400 and 1500 elo on a good day 😊. The problem is I get very anxious when playing. I don't know why that is so I tend to avoid it. Wish I didn't!🤷

Hello Steve! My name is Steve also. Good to meet you. I don't know if I get anxious, but I do pretty tense during a game sometimes, and when I do that I start making mistakes. When I realize I'm at that point, I take a breath, slow down, and take a look at the whole board, try to make the best move I can. It's helped my game and frame of mind of a lot!
Fide online arena has a huge cheating problem
I'm within 5 games of my next title and I'm losing 10/12 of my last games. Only one opponent of my last 10 losses has been under 95% accuracy and I've had 4 at 99%. Really starting to upset me especially with a title in the balance. I've been refunded for 5 games so far in the last 3 weeks and I'm expecting more as 3 opponents in the last 2 days have hit 99% on 30+ move games

I mostly play on Chess.com but I don't pay to be a member. I can only analyze one game a day. Where can I go to analyze more of my games?

@Askar Asgarli you mean you understand Leandro's reply?
This is so tough for me
Hi guys. Recently I've lost a lot of matches. I mean a lot. My elo I'd below 1100 right now. Everytime I pushed myself to atleast win one match, just to feel better at last, I get devastated. The harder I tried the painful it gets. I just deleted chess.com on my device. I thought I got used to this feeling

Hello Vignesh, I am all too familiar with this. Like some of the others have said. Take a break from playing but keep studying. Puzzles, analyzing games. I'm not nearly as experienced as some these guys here but they know what they are talking about. It works!
