Chess.com's First Diamond Member!

Submitted by jay on Fri, 01/25/2008 at 5:13pm.

As many of you know, Chess.com launched its Premium Membership Program just a short while ago, and yesterday we had our very first Diamond Member sign up! We just wanted to write a short news piece to say "Thanks!" to Frank Alejandro (frank713) for supporting the site.

Frank is an avid chess fan, and has posted more information about his chess club in Hawaii here on Chess.com. Don't hesitate to visit his profile and check out all the interesting content he has contributed to Chess.com, including the various events he's promoting as well.

A small quote from Frank regarding his purchase, "I like so far what I have seen at chess.com and its many and upcoming features sound promising! I purchased my lifetime as a sign of good faith that Chess.com is here to stay."

Thanks again Frank! And we definitely are "here to stay".

I don't have any money, but once I get older, I can be rest assured I'll get the top two memberships.

I think Bill Wall has been awarded his life time membership for his contributions during the startup (and still) of this site by Erik and his team. I suspect Frank were the first one to purchase his lifetime membership.
