Chess.com Beta has alot to offer. I heard you have to join Beta to create a chat.

But, i am wondering if there are any other options you could use that Non-Beta people cant use?

I try looking up the blogs that are related to this but i cant find any.

Can someone please help me find what else Beta members get?

Thanks

Most site code changes hit beta before the are released to the main site. Things like live statuses and flair, the new puzzle Rush modes, etc. You also get bugs sometimes grin.png

I guess it is possible. Some Live Chess interface changes might make it to beta first, and that could potentially cause issues, though I don't know for sure. 

 

If you experience connection issues on beta that you don't see on the non-beta, you should report it.

Beta is the site with updates before the rest of the site gets them. That can include new features but could also include bugs.
