"I'm only a 1500 pleb/noob"

I see some posts like this, and one in particular yesterday, that said this nearly word for word.

I get people feel worse than the pros and those better than them, but come on...

Yes, this game has a very high ceiling, and a steep learning curve. I understand that you can be 2300 and still "make mistakes."

However, calling yourself a pleb/noob at 1400, 1500, etc is a bit much, and untrue.

This alienates and discourages a lot of the player base.
