I'll do what I can, I guess I'm in then

Click on MY HOME the click on ACCOUNT and then Online Chess Settings and find it and put your maximum number of that games.

I already have, thanks for reiterating the instructions for those who can't follow them though

Count me in... though i am not on much...

I signed up, should be fun. And maybe I'll learn a thing or two myself.

So if I become a greeter, do I get to put some sort of limit on how many games I play in simultaneously?  Or does this mean that if I become a greeter I am innundated with games?

 On your chess settings page, there is a box toward the bottom of the page where you put how many games you are willing to take on at any one time as a greeter. You decide how many you want to have.

Thank you  dalmatinac

I think we should change it to demonicwriter

I signed in. I want to have as much games as possible, but I've never heard of neither the 'Create seek' nor the 'Challenge <Place name here>' buttons.

sounds cool

im already joined up, no gomes yet though

wish they were rated :~), easy points lol just kidding, i wouldn't beat up someone like that (although some might be able to kick my *** (butt)

This prevents newbies from requesting unavailable ratings and allows more greeters from having a chance to get selected.

I have just signed up...I hope to be a good greeter.

 

I like Sunshiny's idea. That way the newbies don't feel run over by a Mack truck ( they won't come back ! ) ...and on the other hand, the greeter shouldn't feel obliged to "hold back"( off putting for someone in 1800> playing <1000 ). Problem is that we don't know how many newbies to how many greeters - if we have a 100 newbies at say 1127 but most of the greeters want to play only > 1400.

If chess.com agrees to Sunshiny's idea - we need the newbies to know what 1200 is, 1200-1600 is, etc. - they maybe very new to the ratings.

 

Out of all of my newbies, only two have played chess elsewhere .. I know this as i've been told to "hurry up and move" by both of them LOL. My response was to let me know about how chess.com has live chess

 

I just signed up to be a greeter, so I'm doing it anyways, but I was wondering if we get any perks.  Like extra tactics trainer problems each day or something like that.  Or maybe a neat vest like the greeters at Wal-Mart!

Nope you get the privledge of knowing you're helping your favourite website welcome noobs.

Besides, i don't know what a wal-mart vest looks like. lol 

I like the vest idea! :-)
