- Internet ELO ratings compared to actual FIDE ratings
Hey everyone, I was just curious about something, how accurate is your internet rating compared to an actual FIDE rating? I've heard from some chess players that in certain internet chess site like ICC (internet chess club) and playchess com (chessbase), your internet rating is actually quite reflective

I've had the opposite experience I've beaten 1600+ players on FICS but have struggled at 1400 on Chess com I thought it was because the starting point on FICS is 1700 and on C com 1200 but perhaps that's incorrect And does it matter anyway? Just find your level and try to play people a bit better

- Chess. com rating compared to other ratings - Chess Forums
I play quite often official tournaments in Rome and around Italy, and my FIDE rating is 1991; I have been playing on FICS for more than a decade and my standard rating is around 1950, while my blitz rating is 1600 Now since one month I'm playing here, almost always standard games 6+ 25 or 5 + 25, and my standard rating is around 1680
- Method for downloading your own games automatically
No, Chess com doesn't have nearly as many features as ICC or FICS, and the point you bring up clearly demonstrates that They have no option for this, that I'm aware of They also don't make it easy to simply copy and paste the game either For example, after my games, there is a window that is still open that contains all of the moves
