I was wondering if there are any GMs as members of chess.com. It would be interesting to know.

There is at least one. Nigel Davies, a British Grandmaster, is officially registered on chess.com. You can check out a list of some other titled players here:

A shame. I would really love to play a GM. It seems like he didn't really get involved at all; just registered, and added a link to his homepage.

I think a lot of GMs dont play on the net much because of the cheating that takes place. I think as this problem worsens more and more titled players will quit playing on the net. Even a few GMs have been caught using comps on ICC.

There is someone which is not a GM, but has enough ELO te be, i think he has around 2560 ELO.

Oh, yes, but he is also not active here, having played no games. I think some titled players join just to try and recruit students here. They are not here to play.

Sorting the Titled players by rank and looking at the first page, I noticed that only three have games played here on chess.com.

http://www.chess.com/members/titled_players.html to see the titled players who play on chess.com. But I was wondering most of you would already know about it.
