For Pickle0fD00M as of chess profile. There cannot be achieved free memberships in a tournament after you win, I'm afraid. You can only achieve medals present in your awards tab.
But can't you gift them one?
Free Diamond Memberships?

You have been here 13 months and look at your ratings. Just another chronic speed chess player that wants a hand out. You're not a good investment. And you don't need a diamond membership to play speed chess.
Also, why do you have to mingle in someone else's business? WHY comment if you wont help? Lastly, I can beat a 900 rated bot but I don't play much so that's why my ratings are in shambles. THAT'S WHY. Now leave this 10 year old alone.
Beating a chess bot is not the same as playing a human because of the mechanical blunders implemented into the bot, bots moves are predictable compared to humans you won't see 900 elo chess bots finding great moves like a actual 900 elo rated player can, even if you can beat 900 elo players he is still right you have not proven that you can improve with the diamond, its really not a huge difference from platinum. I'm not trying to get into your business I'm trying to help you understand why he said what he said and why bots are not as reliable to your elo rating.
Listen, the guy mistreated me for trying to get the best method to improve on chess.com for free because they make people overpay for it. I'm very lucky to have platinum, and this post was created before I got it. The only means of this now is to guide others.
Sorry about the misunderstanding, I hope you improve with platinum though

Lieutenant Frank Columbo as of chess profile. You have commented on my post just trash-talking bullying downright weaker player. You do not appreciate for what they achieved. We all deserve membership, but the price is very high. Though all the times we have wasted our time grinding 1am games just for someone to be trash-talked.
THANK YOU for speaking out against him. Trash Talkers and bullies need to be taught a lesson.

Thanks.
Fun fact: Students currently enrolled in a school get 50% off on cc memberships. They don't advertise this fact at all, but it exists.
https://www.chess.com/students
BTW Canada is on the list of countries that count for the discount.
That makes diamond with the discount $60

What you call trash talkers and bullies is someone being straight with you. You may not like their answer, Lord knows *I* didn't like his answer once as well, but he isn't trash talking at all. And what do you mean 'taught a lesson?' Seriously, even when I get angry at someone, the thought of 'teaching them a lesson' for speaking their reality here on forums would never enter my mind.
Amazing ... truly amazing.
ADDED: Oh okay, teaching a lesson to a few of these trolls on these forums sounds pretty nice actually.

I'm in FFCA (charter) Elementary, so I don't think they believe that the Kindergarten-Grade 4 mind is capable of playing chess well, however there are several people who play chess in my grade.

It ain't the school that pays for it.
Chess.com will voluntarily give discounts to students to incentivize people to play chess. All you have to do is verify that you go to school.

He's contributing valuable information and if you wise, you'd listen to him. You have a bad mouth on you - even worse than mine.
