It would help if you would tell us who you play and how you play him/her/it.
No one can help if you don’t specify to at least a certain degree. What are you having the most problems with online? We need just a slight bit more info than what is in your OP 
EDIT: What game are you even talking about??? Newbie Saikyo Dojo isn’t exclusive to a single game.
If you can post some videos of some of your matches on youtube or something, that’d definitely help us diagnose what’s going on.
r you reading the fourms? are you looking up youtube vids and trying to practice? do you know ur fundamentals likes footsies, spacing, hit comfrims? don’t just assume because u have excution that you’ll start winning
also don’t take online so seriously
Im assuming you have just started playing fighting games 3 days ago or something. Thats how most of these threads work… I went into training mode for 15 minutes and I STILL CANT WIN

Isn’t that the question in most people’s minds?
But in all honesty, how exactly do you suck? No one truly does unless they don’t try hard enough. We’ve all been there, so there has to be some reason behind it. Not knowing the matchups for your characters? Dropping your combos?
Thats normally the problem. Most new players forget that they actually have to work on new things in training mode, instead of running through the one or two combos that they know.

I’ve been having trouble with fighting games in general, but I’m talking about AE in particular. I’ve tried different characters, but I was mostly playing Guile. I’m not certain how strong my fundamentals are. I’ve playing a turtling game while trying to find an opportunity to get in and do damage I’ve been throwing out SBs and walking up behind them and trying to follow them up with mixups, trying to use different tools like crouching forward, crouching roundhouse, backhand, etc. I learned to use FK sparingly. I don’t know any good combos, but I never feel like I get any good opportunities to land them anyway. I have a hard time getting in on fireball characters. I often find myself putting up a decent fight, winning one of three rounds, doing a lot of damage, gaining life lead at some point in a number of matches, but in the end I still lose most of my matches.
Actually, I’ve been playing casually for at least a decade. Unfortunately, I’ve never been able to find a scene in any of the places I’ve lived to help me improve, and I’ve never had any good players to practice with.
I can’t find a scene where I live, and I don’t know anyone who’s interested in playing offline.
Perhaps. But wouldn’t the other online players have the same disadvantages I do?
Can’t find a scene…have you checked Regional Matchmaking?
I know Oklahoma has a scene.
Thanks.
As far as I can tell, the Oklahoma scene is mostly in Tulsa, and that’s a 2.5 hr drive from where I live.
Better for you to go to the scene…than wait for the scene to come to you.
It just isn’t a practical option for me. At least not now.
Fuck some bitches. Get drunk and play online. Now you give 0 fucks about winning online.
Oklahoma city has a scene the same as tulsa. your just not looking. If you want to play people more than whats being offered why dont you host casuals at your place? People will go.

Ah, if I may say something about mindset. You want to get better, correct? Yet you seem to be looking for quickfire tips and solutions. Taking a 2.5 hour drive doesn’t seem like a practical option to you. But say you talk to the guys, find a day when you can take the trip all the way down and meet up with the most of them and just indulge in hours of playing. While you are playing, you get to know the people, as you get to know the people, you guys get to discuss the game, you guys get to discuss other things to keep from getting too tired of the just playing the game, and you’ll learn on and off the game. Then hell, make the most of it, hit up a bar or something afterwards. Make it a day to have fun and play FGs. Don’t think of it as some chore or task, that’s how you don’t get better.

Yeah, it just depends on how much you want to get better. I can sorta sympathize on the whole “too far” thing. Playing other real lfie players and playing different styles is how you get better, though. Online is not a good indicator of skill as tournaments are played in real time, not online. And no matter how little lag there may be online, there are a lot of things that you can only learn from playing offline.
