Dear Sir/Madam of the Chess.com Organisers,  

I have been with chess.com for a long period so far. Today, I want to let you know my queries :

1) Can we assume the standard live chess (15:10) rating of a player at chess.com is more or less equivalent to his/ her FIDE ELO Rating ? For example, my own case, I am able to sustain above 1750 rating at chess.com for considerable periods. So, on this basis should I consider my FIDE strength is at least 1750? If there is no secrecy, would you tell about few FIDE rated player's Chess.com rating in Standard Timing i.e. 15min, 10 sec increment .

2) As most of the FIDE rated tournaments all over the globe are held with time around 45min with minimum 15 sec increment, would you introduce this time as a standard among the other timings under Live Chess category ? That will definitely attract lot of young ambitious players also.

3) I am also a regular visitor in www.chessbomb.com to watch GM chess tournaments. Not only me, may be almost everyone see the Evaluation Lines of the games given by Stockfish with some digits with +- , like in London Chess Classic Rd9, Aronian vs Topalov at move no.53, Stockfish has given a point of -8.19. This is very helpful if one player knows degree of correctness of the various moves in his ongoing game. Is it possible here in our favorite chess.com platform to introduce at least at Live chess games with some chess engines like Stockfish or Komodo ?

4) www.babaschess.net is an wonderful chess platform under FICS where we can choose our opponent including chess engines with various strength. Grifin Jr & Sr are really great creation as they play like humans. Can Chess.com have that type of features ? Let us hope new attractive changes will come to our favorite chess.com in the new year 2017.

     Thanks for sparing your valuable time. Wish you all a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year in advance.

With warm regards,
