and if so diamond, platinum, or gold?
planeden
i would say at least platinum for the unlimited daily tactics. and, if you have time for chess mentor you should go to diamond.

Depends on what you want.

This is one thing that annoys me. I do most of my tactics training at another site that is free for tactics. I think gold should get unlimited TT as well.
because chess.com is cooler than the other sites? i have no idea, i joined this site because of people i know. i don't spend time looking at other places.

I would go platinium if arn't going to use chess mentor. You get chess tv (which is awesome), TT and game explorer, which is plenty to get better with. However, if you want to supposrt chess.com or want chess mentor, either donate a few thousand dollars or get premium membership. Whatever suits you best.

In terms of costs, I am exploring the possibility of getting playchess.com for my ChessBase 11, which is only like 40 dollars for a year of benefits similar to a diamond membership, or ICC which has similar benefits for another relatively low cost (not sure what it is right now). There are ways to get free chess training stuff, like chesstempo.com, and if you have a chess engine that's also handy for practice. There are many possibilities; I am personally trying to see why chess.com diamond membership is so costly for its features compared to the others I mentioned.
whys that? playchess sucks
