Hello members of chess.com,

I have been on chess.com for many years now. When I first came on here, I wasn't that interested in chess. So after about two years, I closed my account. Then after another year, I decided to come back in 2013. I have been on chess.com ever since.

Because I've been on this website for almost five years, I have pretty much learned everything that chess.com can do and what aspects can help members to become a better chess player. I also have a membership on this website, which allows me to understand what other advantages that people can get with this. This is why I want to help out anyone that is coming onto chess.com for the first time or anyone that wants to learn more about memberships, how to get better, how to use the website efficiently, etc.

Anyone that wants to learn more about chess.com, please message me or leave a comment down below, and I'll get back to you as fast as I can.

I don't recall seeing you active here in the forums before.  I'd like to know how you got 4000+ points. (Are you very active in certain groups?)

At any rate, I think it is great that you want to help. Why don't you just start answering people's unanswered questions in the forum?

For example, there is a question now:

Why don't you give it a try?

I would like to know where I can find lots of:

(1) annotated GM or Master games online (PGN files, links, etc.; and

(2) annotated puzzles (PGN files, links, etc._.

Emphasis on annotated.

Thanks.
