You can always play on more then one different platform.

I pay chess.com so they can build an algorithm to bust cheaters. To me it's one of the more important things in life, because whoever cheats at chess, wants to cheat in life as well...

Seriously, what is wrong with you. Others have already mentioned it, but there is zero 'pay to win' in chess. You are wrong. Period.

The question remains why you feel the need to promote a competing website? One that is already known by all active chess players (many people use both even, I think). You pay for services offered, not to win. I find really difficult to imagine someone not seeing the value of what this website is offering.

I get the first part, but I don't understand what you're saying about promoting other websites and what this website is offering. Other websites are offering the same stuff but unlimited and free.

If you pay, your Eli will go up. Stop paying, your ELO goes down.
