My brother plays on this site and he told me he'd beat me up if I didn't join. My brother can't beat me up to save his life but he can put a world of hurt on me in Chess.

I think it evens things out. I beat him up and he beats me in chess.

 I play here because of all the chess sites that I played on (and I played chess on quite a few) this one has the most options (and I can't believe that Erik is still keeping the 'beta' sign on ;-) ).

 Also this is The best chess community! After all, it's the people here that make this site truly wonderful!Laughing

To fill the holes in my opening repertoire.

You know, all those times when you reach a position and you're like "I NEVER do well from here, I should really look this up" -- well chess.com gives you the chance to do exactly that.

I cam here to escape the idiocy on another site and stayed! This is far superior and has everything I miss through not being able to play in a proper club.

Because I wanted to try correspondence chess, and found no better place. The other features are just extra frosting - yum!

CAUSE, I like it and there are really neat people here and the site is set up real well, and nobody called me and 'Old Fart'....   (YET).  Now if I could just play better
