this site isnt perfect but, in my opinion it offers the best with the least bugs/glitches

this site is especially great for chess types and its many variants

its a problem though that its becoming less active, which causes people to leave, making it even less active

persoanlly i loved this site, and it was definetly my #1
although for backgammong alone dailygammon is slightly better

personally i have achieved most of what i wanted on this siite, so far, and dont see any progress in the unachieved goals .... plus i wanted to play other games on a more active site, so i moved on to jijbent which is the dutch version of yourturnmyturn

if anyone doesnt like playing on this site anymore, i suggest them to move on to another site .... if they still do want to play on this site, then try to make it work better by motivating other players in a positive way

Crosseyed Mary:
Maybe I’ll see you in Goldtoken. I have some very active clubs there. Word, poker, chess and checkers of course. With lots of chess variants. And some others. If you are interested contact me there.

There are some problems there but plenty of games and players.

Crosseyed Mary: it would be great if the good people that frequent this site stay and play. It would make it even more attractive and fun to be a part of if everyone just stayed.  However,  I understand that we are all paying for a service and our expectations are high due to the services we have received in the past.  I for one have accepted the fact that “service” will basically mean essential services only and anything above that likely won’t be considered or dealt with. Brainking is more like Brainpawn now but still allows people to get together to play and have fun. 
With that being said, I encourage you to stay, but I also respect your decisions. 
Take care.

Crosseyed Mary: Again? I recall you did the same thing last spring (2018). It's a shame, because I think a lot of people would prefer you played the games out rather than have a bunch of resignations. 

Regardless, sorry to see you go.

Carpe Diem: you must remember that she can see it all....just becuase she resigned her games and gave her membership to someone doesnt mean she isnt here lapping up all the lovely things people are saying....When people do this, as she has done, when Fencer transfers the membership to someone else he should also put a ban on her joining again....just saying...not trying to start an argument.

Bernice: I assumed she would be able to read it; nothing I said was meant to be a slam at her. I mean, I mentioned the resignation thing because I think if she comes back and this happens again, she should finish her games out rather than resigning them all. It's not a huge deal, and of course she's within her rights to do what she did, I just think it's not the best approach. That's all. My apologies to her if my comment came across as overly negative, as it wasn't my intent.

I disagree about banning people who transfer their membership. A pawn membership is free, so by transferring their paid membership, there's no reason they shouldn't have the right to go back to the pawn level. I mean, they could just create a new account anyway; I think it's better for all if such members continue on with their existing accounts. 

And I meant it when I said I was sorry to see her go; I'd be happy to see her renew some day.
