Lol I'm exactly the elo that OP was before he closed his account...advice I have. Play chess for fun, or play it seriously . Going into the game, know which one you are going to do. I've been so busy lately I haven't been able to play seriously...but when I do play seriously, I study games, watch yt videos, really analyze everything, spending a few hours a day on chess, and my rating quickly shoots up out of nowhere (look at my account lol) Even though for the past month I've been around 1250, I think if I sat down and followed my own advice (should I have the time lol) I could advance at least a few more hundred rating points.
