Hi, everybody! I'm wondering what all the premium features I'm seeing around the site. I want

  1.  A list of all this stuff.
  2. How much it will cost. And
  3. If it will make chess.com boring for people who don't have money that grows on trees.

Yes, we are working to provide everyone with this information in the near future. We are still working on developing some of this.

 

For now continue to freely enjoy the site.  Smile

 I myself was wondering about the cost...as of course I don't have a money tree either.And frankly I'm very glad I don't as I would never get any sleep.I would have to stay up all night guarding my tree...Wink

 i don't have a full list, but so far it is maps, advanced stats, and no ads. 

 it will cost less than $20 a year.

 it won't change much of what exists now :) just additive stuff mostly.

Less than $20 a year for all this???  Oh man oh man oh man, even the stingiest of wives would let their husbands sign up for that!  How about that for a good chess.com advert: "All your chess dreams come true for less than $20/year.  Your wife can't say No!" Laughing

haha, very funny quote. I thought the husbands were more stingy than wives? Or am I mistaken?

 Well...when it comes to the Toys (e.g. digital cameras, Chessmaster 11, new computer to go along with it, cell phones, etc.), I sometimes need to come up with some good justification (e.g. "My birthday is in 352 days - how about an advance on that gift!", "My co-worker said this new cell phone is great!", "Aw, c'mon, the kids don't need coats this year - it is supposed to be a warm winter!", etc. etc.).  A promise of a backrub doesn't hurt either.

Are these payments required to play, or can you have less benefit for free?

To  a premium spot, and click on the link in the box. This SHOULD answer your question.

xbigboy, are you just trying to raise your user points by posting twice every time?  Sir, it would be good for the site, and possibly your popularity, if every post were somehow constructive.
