Why do you play on chess.com?

I play on chess.com because there's many good player.There's also Online chess,Tournaments,Live chess,Vote chess and many other thing you can do.

i play on Chess.com because it would be really weird if i didn't...

My brother plays on this site and he told me he'd beat me up if I didn't join. My brother can't beat me up to save his life but he can put a world of hurt on me in Chess.

I think it evens things out. I beat him up and he beats me in chess.

 I play here because of all the chess sites that I played on (and I played chess on quite a few) this one has the most options (and I can't believe that Erik is still keeping the 'beta' sign on ;-) ).

 Also this is The best chess community! After all, it's the people here that make this site truly wonderful!

Fun, purely and simply.

To fill the holes in my opening repertoire.

You know, all those times when you reach a position and you're like "I NEVER do well from here, I should really look this up" -- well chess.com gives you the chance to do exactly that.

Hilarious!

And yes erik, yours was good too :P.

well .... my husband got me playin chess... and this is the best site on the web... and im loving the forums aswell as the blogs and the actual games

I play here because nothing beats freebie.

I cam here to escape the idiocy on another site and stayed! This is far superior and has everything I miss through not being able to play in a proper club.

because women find me repugnant :)

just a very nice community, and very flexible game options

'Cause of the free drugs

good question /?

Because I wanted to try correspondence chess, and found no better place. The other features are just extra frosting - yum!

good community

boredom.   Also, This site is no longer "beta" - it's full gear now.

Because it's the best online chess site, beside i don't have anyone to play OTB

yeah, but i started playin here for fun... now its become an addiction... even if i have no moevs i do the forums and read blogs and see the groups etc

CAUSE, I like it and there are really neat people here and the site is set up real well, and nobody called me and 'Old Fart'....   (YET).  Now if I could just play better
