I bought a gold membership in april but deleted it thinking I was ending my yearly auto-subscription. I thought Id still have it until april next year.

It had 25 tactics a day which I miss a little bit.  I think you can get in tournaments easier.

With a diamond you get unlimited tactics which is too much if you get hooked on them.

But  if you like chess, I think its better to pay a bit if you can, as it supports chess in general.

Amazing how the biggest sense of entitlement comes from the non-paying “members.” Typical of the world we live in, unfortunately.

You are oppressing my right to oppress others, for free.

Since you're a kid (IKR!), just get on ChessKid. You can get premium membership for 20 bucks a year. You still get unlimited tactics and video and all that stuff. You get to play with kids your age as well. I mainly just use this for discussion threads, news, and casual playing. You get the same things here for 90 bucks a year.

I think the diamond membership is good, but it is quite expensive. It is not a must to have a membership, you can do almost just a much without one.

Been on this site for years and ive never cared to pay for chess when the game is free on most sites (some without ads and free tactics). Why pay for it? I dont even bother with the free trial they keep offering me, its pointless. 

You guys are the reasons for possible bankruptcy for chess.com. 

Btw, I am a free member for 10 years. grin.png wink.pngmeh.png

Sorry if my post came across as aggressive, it's just I'm pretty sure memberships have no effect on connection and glitches.

Thanks for even thinking about what you wrote!

No I just meant that I had the problem resolved and everyone can now take a break from this forum. Thank you for apologizing...

superchessmachine

But now the thing Is that have not had a single connection problem. 

Funny how all the problems were resolved once I got my membership Renewed....

With the rare, invitation-only crystal skull membership, buxom alien partygirls will come to your house and drink light beer with you.

I'm just going to guess its a placebo effect.

Lol. I remember this so well. We have lost so many great members since then. Now @bobbyphisher is gone too.

I've been ok with it. I can play turn-based games and be a pretentious know-it-all in the forums. What more does one need?

superchessmachine

The site is getting better but it wont last more than 10 more years.
