Ads help the site financially. Be a paying member (although I'm not) to get rid of the ads.

I know the scam.  In general, all websites slow internet speed by a bombardment of ads.  Do you really think most of the people want to support X or just make a buck?

Very true.  This is a very considerate and safe website in that respect. 

But, still, just to be on the safe side, it never hurts to utilize a digital condom when chessing with strangers.  

I have one on even as i type this, despite the fact that i'm a paying member.  Can't be too careful -- digital herpes is no joke, people.

Indeed.

 

Better to be safe than sorry. wink.png

Great (and chess-transmitted-disease-free) minds think alike.

Are you implying that the opposite, not being a paid member, doesn't help the site financially? If so, then you should think about this, because this is absolutely wrong!

Sure, but only if you can tell me what I replied to.

That doesn't matter as I didn't treat my assumption as an fact and asked politely if you treat it that way. The thread is rigged as the first post is deleted and you ask me to the post you replied to?

 

But I treat your sure, that my assumption was correct. No, you are completely wrong. Everyone here is supporting the site financially. Thinking the opposite is blending out obvious facts, for example the TOS, which contains a lot of text regarding the way everyone is supporting the site.

You obviously  are trying to put a different meaning to my post. It was clear what my point(s) was.

Ads help the site financially. --- I stated here the purpose of the ads.

Be a paying member (although I'm not) to get rid of the ads. --- And here I mentioned how to get rid of the ads

Don't over analyze things. 

Thank you.

I didn't analyze things at all, just pure facts:

  1. Thread is rigged due to missing entry post which you want me to tell you, ridiculous requesting this knowing its deleted.
  2. TOS --> Tons of Advertising --> Financial Support.
  3. You didn't clearly state whether you think non-paid is financial support or not, hence one has to take the more likely case

And another fact, no analyzing, is that supporting via Ads or paid subscription is both of a financially kind. Many people think only paid subscription is of that way which is naive and wrong.

DO NOT BUY SUPERCHARGE YOUR CHESS IN 21DAYS

THIS IS THE WORST COURSE EVER.

HERE'S WHY:

WAY TOO EXPENSIVE.

FALSE INFORMATION.TERRIBLE MASTER GAMES.

LIMITED TACTICS.

LACK OF RATING IMPROVEMENT.

REPEATED EASY ENDGAMES.

 

BASICALLY IN THIS COURSE YOU GET TO READ THOURGH A LOAD OF FALSE INFORMATION THAT MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD BUT DOESN'T DO GOOD. THEN YOU STUDY THOUGH A MASTER GAME THAT DROWNS YOU WITH VARIATIONS. YOU DO 5 REALLY HARD TACTICS AND CHECK THEM WITH SOLUTIONS WHICH DONT HAVE EXPLAINATIONS. YOU STUDY ABOUT OPPOSITION FOR EVERY LESSON AT THE END.

 

RIGHT SO THE COURSE IS $69.

NO PREVIEW AT ALL AND THE GARUNTEE IS A LIE.

 

BETTER WAYS TO SPEND YOUR MONEY,

    BUY CHESS.COM GOLD MEMEBERSHIP, DO TACTICS AND PLAY LOTS OF GAMES

    BUY BOBBY FISCHER 60 MEMORABLE GAMES.

    BUY SILMANS ENDGAME COURSE/REASSES YOU CHESS.

 

RIGHT NOW IM READING ABOUT 10 PAGES OF HOW TO REASSES YOUR CHESS. IM DOING ABOUT 10 TACTICS A READING ONE GAME OF BOBBY fiSHER.

 

DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON A USELESS COURSE. TO BE HONEST I THINK ITS NOT EVEN WORTH $1

Good thing no one brought it back out of obscurity by commenting or anything like that, isn't it?

use ad-blocker.  

 

beside the spamming kids who are not able understand the topic so many user use an ad-blocker and it worked great so far. In the end complaining about ads is ridiculous, read the TOS and you'll see that every user is helping the site financially, no need to be a paid user to help out. That's fair for the site and the user as well.
