What do you think is the biggest insult somebody can give in regards to chess play?

Some people think it is patzer, but there are other terms too that I think can be annoying.

one guy said to me......"Tactics! Tactics Tactics! you need to study Tactics!"

He then got up from our game and walked away. Leaving me there to look at our unfinished game.

It hurt cause i was weak.

We are "chess park" friends now though.

Once you're well into the game, look up with a blank expression and ask "Have you ever played chess before"? Try to sound sincere.

You could take it as an insult... or as good advice (for any of us) from a presumably stronger player.

The greatest insult came from someone who kept playing against me although I had a Queen and 2 rooks against his only rook and a few pawns.
The guy played UNTIL he was checkmated
he had hoped to cause a stalemate but it was impossible to do it because of his pawns
That day I felt insulted

For him to tell you that you play chess like a world champion, then he tells you that he was thinking of the checkers champ Marion Tinsley.
