Hello. I received a message from Lichess upon reaching 2400 in classical chess which advised that I contact Lichess staff to verify a title (if I have one) to avoid suspicion of cheating. I do not have any chess title, however I am a legitimate 2100 rated USCF player. Is there any way that I can verify this to Lichess without having to post my USCF page for anybody to view? Thanks.
just dont put it on ur profile, u dont need to verify anything... i myself was 2100 when i made my account, and i reached 2600 and i didnt need to verify anything until i truly got my NM title :)
You can email the moderators your USCF id card...
The +300 elo deviation is in line with another player I know. He is slightly above 1900 OTB, but here on lichess in 10 min games, he has a rating above 2200. In general, Lichess players are overrated compared to their real playing strength. I'm weaker, but the deviation on my level is still between 100 and 200 elopoints.
@Notjana what does that have to do with this topic?

You can send an e-mail to Lichess, where you can attach your USCF page to verify your elo. :)
