Only seems right that everyone should be able to make requests.
Staff will respond with a yea or nay. But responses will rarely be automatic given the constraints of time, circumstances and possible need for further discussion before rendering judgment. Below the picture you will find a number of items that are notcurrently on the agenda. Some limited restrictions/some events not currently undertaken:
New forums - A request will have to be submitted and approved before we add forums. I find clubs with tens to hundreds of forums might as well not have forums as you can never find what you want. Or it is repeated with slightly different titles. Frustrating.
Chess Matches/Tournaments - The primary purpose of this club is to support bloggers and blog readers who also happen to enjoy chess. I felt most folks probably already received numerous requests daily to play chess for one of their clubs. So, I wanted to avoid the extra requests for your support in club matches or tournaments.
Blog competitions - My initial take is that there are substantive competitions elsewhere. I would rather celebrate the outcomes of those events. Besides, as I am writing this there are clearly insufficient numbers to establish and substantively judge blogs. Let alone potential submitters. This could change if circumstances warrant. Though what it would require to be warranted escapes me at the moment.
Gambling - Well, don't know how that would work. Just wanted to let you know that creative suggestions would certainly earn a smile.
