You're totally contradicting yourself. 'chess.com should have stayed free' and 'chess.com should charge' just baffles me :).
Chess.com is now event wanting are money!

What do you do when you can't get a girlfriend and onanism becomes a chore? You set up a stupid forum, making a stupid point to intentionally needle people.
If your really bored why not sit and think of something good to write. Don't underestimate yourself, you do have the ability to create something for people instead of being so bloody self indulgent.

Some people are being a bit harsh, but really--would you rather chess.com was not here at all?

This does not go nearly far enough. Chess.com should be paying us for the privilege of our patronage. What would this site be without this amazing community? We all work very hard to ensure that there are always games available and discussion to be had. When will we get our due?
You already do. You get the privilege of playing, get to be active in the community, and have discussions. Isn't that payment enough?

When i first started on this site it was fine i was able to look at my games make a group see my full stats. Now i cant even do that unless you buy a membership. Chess.com should have stayed as a free chess site and have full abillities like FICS and Uscf members for World chess live.
Well, i think that chess.com needs to make money but it has gone to a little to far in its extents, i can only go 5 moves in into the game explorer, a month ago i could see a whole game!!
lol @ AquaMan. :)
