oh....sometimes its is really useful to learn chess, but sometimes its not lol
You are like me. I play lots of tournaments. Don't really use too many other features. Platinum works just fine for that. No sense paying the extra money.

I agree...I think Platinum is more appropriate for me...Diamond costs around double of Platinum...

I like to host tournaments.That's why I'm platinum,which is about half as much,and all you lose is the TV programs.
But the problem for me is that I do not watch TV PROGRAMS!!!! :(((
I don't understand why someone with an interest in chess and a diamond membership isn't spending at least an hour a day on the ChessMentor. Great material efficiently presented and covering pretty much anything you'd ever want to learn about chess. I also don't understand why you're not hitting the videos; IM Danny Rensch's Live Session videos alone are worth the price of admission. I guess unless you struggled as a kid to study with not much more available than the library copy of MCO, you just don't appreciate how marvelous today's resources are. My rant of the day...
Well actually the day is still young, so who knows?

Me either. That's why I don't pay for them. Maybe you should pay for a platinum,or gold membership,depending on what you want to do.
Thats what I mean....I made a mistake...

Yeah. It is very useful however usually I dont have enough time to learn.....
I've been in a Diamond member since around a month ago. And i found that this type of premium does not really do much things. Sometimes I play lots of tournaments, tactics, analysis. However i think that does not really fits with that amount of money. How do you guys think about this?
