Never heard about the first one

I agree wih you goldendog, but you're fighting a lost battle. Popularity doesn't go hand in hand with quality, take for instance Harry Potter, as pure literature, the book quality is poor. Don't take me wrong, I read all the books and I quite enjoyed them, but JK Rowling is no Shakespeare nor Marlowe.

Another good example is 50 Shades of Grey, compare it with the Rosy Crucifixion by Henry Miller. 50 shades pales in comparison to it, but still it's been sold worldwide. The same goes for TV programmes, films, etc.

Same thing with Macer and Batgirl.

I'm relatively new here, but until today I never heard of GeorgeBlack. Macer, MzJavert, and Varelse 1 are the names I recognize the most.

One reason could be it's a difficult handle to remember.

It could have been appropriate if some famous GM's were in here so that we can show some gratitude with respect to recognizing who's famous person here.Other than that who can be famous besides tv and news posters/commentators ?

Good one.

Daeth won, everyone knows him. As soon as people get on the forums people talk about him. He is everywhere and he is a chess.com legend

chessdex

Does anyone know who has the most profile views?

chess_idiot

Has the most veiws I'm sure, but he is NOT the  most famous, just well known and liked

chessdex

chess_idiot probably has the most friends too. He got over a thousand friends, and then invited them all to one group. Smart idea

chessdex

What about GeniusKJ? He seems popular in groups and online coaching

Lou-for-you

Without a doubt robert houdart. The owner/inventor of houdini. Very popular...

He's on chess.com?
