Does anyone have FIDE PRO membership on the Online Arena? Is it worth the cost?

If you are into bullet games, it is worth it. You should get a membership right now. Otherwise, if into blitz or rapid, you will be paired to a lot of cheaters. Tons of cheaters. Just an honest review helping people to not waste time.

Thanks! This helps. I am into rapid so I guess I'll hold off on getting a membership.

I Play on here all the time because chess.com is the best for uscf and ecf games and playing titled folks and celebs and toggle on and off over there and try for a month or so to get up to aim from afm where im at. Hit 1400 Rapid today for the first time and was ecstatic but will see if this runs gets me up to 1700 Blitz, stuck in the 15s atm and not going up fast atm. Hit 1691 once but is tough because of how small the pool is there to climb
