Don't get me wrong, Fencer!
I only meant it's not a good idea to use chess pieces to belittle non-paying members. (How about colors or numbers instead?) I wasn't saying you shouldn't have the option for people to pay and help support the site. I understand that a site needs money to keep goin'! And this site beats the goat out of IYT. If you could stop the server trouble, maybe take into consideration my suggestion of a different type of "membership level" representation, then it would be as perfect as can be (in an imperfect universe)! :·)
