Hello,
I went through the rules but I didn't see this topic so I would prefer to ask before posting something that might be against the rules.
Is it allowed in the forum to ask for chess help in exchange of [little] money? That's basically asking for coaching, but all I need is a good blitz player to play games with me so I don't need to go to professional coaches and I would like to reach out to anybody.
EDIT: I'm thinking that I could even compensate the player who helps me by buying them a chess.com membership.
Please let me know if this would be allowed.
I see no objection to it.
Let us understand. You'll buy a (gold/platinum/diamond) (one month/one year) membership for whoever with a high enough rating agrees to play x games of (3 2?/ 5 0? 10 0?) blitz with you? I notice that you play 3 2. I assume that is what you are most comfortable with.
Your own current blitz rating is 1485. What rating would you require?
What number of games are you thinking about as a fair trade? 20? 50? 100?
And would you pay for the membership up front? Or only after the x number of games has been played to your satisfaction? What guarantee would the player have that you would keep your part of the bargain?
