Bullet game

I recently played a bullet game this ;



The players name is : Unrated_Player. After the game, he said into chat - "noob."

Now, why did he do that? It's a casual bullet game 1:0. I missed a chance to fork his rooks, but was still winning anyway.

Noob ? is an insult is it not? I'm not trying to get him in trouble. Just trying to understand, Why hate me? for playing "bad" but still winning? Am I to think he let me win?

Second game, this player obviously did let me "win" though i didn't take the mate in 2.



Obviously he let me have mate in 2 on purpose, He was aware of it no doubt, but why? Why even bother playing that many moves just to let them win? Of course it's a meaningless bullet game, Though why waste my time and yours like that?

I can only take this as an insult too. This is how far these people are willing to go, just to assert their dominance over anyone at all? Was he thinking ;

"Oh, Yeah baby! I can still win psychologically by beating you by taking the meaning out of beating me, by throwing the game cause it was too easy!"

On a side note is this what Jerry means when he says, a good plan in chess to try and figure out what it is your opponent is thinking/trying to do and stop it? they're all trying to win! by god! alphazero look out!
Sorry.. unrelated.. Just beginning here.. trying to figure out how everything works. There's no real guide.. what's a Bullet game? Why so many options? I just want to play casually with other people who don't mind a game taking a few days. What am I looking for? Do I go to the Lobby?
Thanks!
Bullet is a form of Chess which has really short time and/or increments.

Bullet anything under 3 minutes
Blitz between 3 and 5 minutes
Rapid between 5 and 10 minutes
Classical 15 minutes + 15 second increment per move.

Click 'Play' at the top left of the page, Go to the 'correspondence' tab and either join a correspondence game or create one yourself, they can be anything from 1 day to 14 days (iirc).
I am currently playing 4 at the moment :)

Back to the OP,
I once had an opponent call me a fu**ing cu*t for refusing his take back request, he then quit the game
