You don't have $5? I'm sure it would only take about 1/2 hour to collect $5 in change from bottles or cans, get a silver account, create your group, then cancel your silver membership. Just an idea. :)
I want to make my own group
Sort:
well I don't exactly have a credit card- so I do not know how to buy the silver membership.
can I send a check or something? when I went to checkout it asked for a credit card.
but really, can I get the silver account, create the group, then cancel it? I would still be able to run it and make my dream come true?
if so, I vow to you, the new generation will follow radjabov!
Can I pay by check?
- Yes! Send your payment to: Chess.com, PO Box 60400, Palo Alto, CA 94306. Make sure to include your member name with your payment.
ok thanks! now I know what I must do
do I need to put personal information with the check?

unreal. your in your 20's living in california. you'll probably spent $30 on dinner and movies this weekend. i have ZERO sympathy for you. if you were an 11-year old kid in bangalore then you have something to complain about. unbelievable.
:)
ok erik. I live with my parents. And I'm not an adult. So basically, I'm a child and I am NOT ALLOWED to put my real birthday. You know about the parent "security" and all that. So unfortunately I'm not a 20 year old guy going out to dinner and movies on the weekend. I'm just a kid with dreams of becoming a chess master, like all other serious chess players. I'm sorry.

then tell your parents about your dream and i'm sure they will support you for $29 a year. tell them it's either chess, or you'll start hanging out with the wrong crowd :)
they don't like me playing chess :(. but I think I don't really need the premium membership. this is already as fun as it is. however, since being a regular member and I can't make a group, can you make my dream group? it would be called the "reti attack" and have a big bright picture of richard reti on the front page. I could join and I guess that would be almost the same.
thanks.
p.s. is there really no t-shirt for the 1000 points thing? I thought I read somewhere that you said so- maybe the forum was REALLY old. Well, I guess that's alright I still know how to use hte enlgish!

There really is no t-shirt for the 1000 poins thing. What you read was very old, from the beginning days of chess.com.
I mean it wouldn't be too hard to make the reti group- and it sure would make a whole lot of the chess.com members happy!
And also: can't I even get a chess.com cup for 1000 points? Do I have anything to dream for with my 48 points?
Thanks.
no cos so many people have that amount of points chess.com can't just keep giving away all this stuff
Ok, as many of you onlookers are painfully aware, I have begun an assault on the premium membership thing. Not that I do not respect it, as without it this website will not be running, but I just wanted to have a little fun with it.
But more seriously is the creating a group ability only allowed by premium accounts. with this I find it difficult to join let alone create my very own Reti online team. I am obsessed with reti and his opening- just see my games.
I hope that the creating a group function will become available to all users in the future. When that moment comes, me and my reti dream will be waiting.
