Sort:

GM Yuri Vovk has the highest Elo rating but he only coaches

the _65-th_ square -I am really impressed not only by his record, but the way of playing and thinking. I want to reach his level
I believe thechessnetwork is the best, just from watching the battle style displayed.

Yea but all this guy does is demolish noobs all day in quick chess. His blitz rating is much more telling of his skill which of course is well above average at 2000+ but still not exactly "best" material. As for turn-based chess I doubt he'd make the top 50 but of course I could be wrong.

I like Gonnosuke's style the best from the games I have looked at on here. Also, tournament points don't count, because one may not be in the hardest tournaments. Awardchess, sorry, but you are not even close man.
the greatest means the most charming player? if that so, that could go to me :-) :-)
Are you guys serious? It's obvious that Greg (AWARDCHESS) is the "greatest" player on Chess.com. Anyone who doubts this should carefully examine post #12 and consider that Greg usually has 1000+ games running concurrently. Only 2 timeouts out of 3152 games completed (despite personal problems recently) speaks for itself. Greg is also active in the forums, admin of various groups and always a gentleman. C'mon now fellahs! credit where credit is due!
p.s. If "greatest" means strongest player then the answer is simple... whoever at the moment tops the "players" list is the greatest. The word strongest wasn't used though.... Greg scores points in every department, he's my hero! 
From the top ten list above....let's look at it from the perspective of points earned per tournament entered.
- Ozzie 70.96
- RathiDragon 41.08
- Nf6 27.72
- TheChessGym 26.96
- GaryD 20.87
- Hammers 20.71
- jcmargos 20.54
- awardchess 15.11
- fcpanginen 11.32
- lordbobbetti 6.99

i think we should just have a Chess.com Champions Tournament with all the highest rated players. the winner of this tournament can declare themselves the best on chess.com (that is, of course, until the next Champions Tournament ;)
