Age Groups

Hi i'm 14, (going on 15) now i don't want to be rude but can RHP like hold like a 13-20 zone so people who are like 39 and have been playing for 10 years have been getting higher ratings cos they like beat such young players such as me

I don't think age and rating are correlated. I am probably twice as old as Ark or GalaxyShield, but I don't stand a chance...

What about players who are 39 and started playing when they were 38 (for example)?

I'm 30 and have been playing chess for about 7 months.

What about fat blad men who pretend they are 19 year old nubile wenches?

I don't think it funny that anyone can be so illiterate after 10 years state-funded education.

I do not think any parent would be likely to pay a school to teach illiteracy.

You again! Don't bother to tell me you think the lad's post was a credit to our wonderful comprehensive school system.
