Lost to a 1200 player -_-

Some lower rated players are also more motivated while playing against significantly higher rated players, like you really want to get that high rated scalp, as a result one move mistakes and hanging pieces will occur less frequently and the overall quality of play will be higher. This could have been the case with the game Koo has lost, as his opponent was probably extra careful not to blunder any major piece.
Look @CrassJack
I admit I blundered a lot against that 1000
But I managed to make a comeback and defeat a 2070 in the very next game
One defeat against a 1000 doesn't mean that I am not what my rating suggests
If you really think that I am worse than what my rating suggests, then the 1800-2000s and that 2200 I defeated in my rated and casual games must be worse than 1000 for you
I am open to suggestions for my games and development, but that's only when the suggestions are logical
In this case it was not
I am not the only one to have lost to player many points below me
Many titled players have also lost to 1800s once or twice
My fide unrated friend almost defeated an IM once
One game does not say who you are
I shared my loss to tell the OP that losing to such players is normal
But people like you write in such forums to depress people
I have seen your other comments here
You think that having such losses means that the player should quit from chess
Let me tell you that even GMs fall for simple traps
So stop being so negative
People post here for logical suggestions
Not for the kind of suggestions you posted here
@CrassJack
You haven't played much games on lichess
So you haven't faced players like the ones mentioned by gayweather
Doesn't look like you want to improve
Why write negative stuff about those who want to improve?
Strange that you look at people's worst rated losses (especially those with a huge rating difference) and not at their highest rated wins
And those losses are once in a blue moon cases
And you have more losses than wins CrassJack, maybe before preaching at others look at your own skills.
And I just realised this thing
@CrassJack had created a thread few weeks ago where he/she said that he/she plays really bad and later asked everyone in the pvt chat about this decision. The ones who said yes got blocked
And the same person is now telling others to quit
