Based upon feedback thus far, I imagine hundreds if not thousands of current subscribers will be leaving this site once their subscription expires

Absolutely Correct: 11 cents/day = unlimited action with a variety of chess lovers, still quite a deal!

After your fail of epic proportions regarding the stock market when Obama took office for a second term I don't think anyone will be listening to you anymore when it comes to predictions.

It would look a lot nicer without your avatar.

Yes, I REALLY dislike the change for reasons others have cited. Particularly I don't like all the wasted space to the left and right of the screen. Looks stupid. Everything is so big and blocky now, too. I don't think I will renew my subscription and might migrate to Game Knot.

Nope. Minutes before expressing that sentiment, I had been thanked for my [non-subscriber] membership at a competitive on-line chess site with this parting message at the end of an invitation to play in their May, 2013, Rated Tournament:

"Good luck and thank you for choosing _______ as your premier chess battlefield!"

Note: Several Weeks of Intense Action Within a Multiple Game Format with Total Strangers Awaits,
Sans Friendly RHP General Forum "Interaction" Should I Accept. Not Even Close, Suzianne. (gb)

I tried it with all three. FireFox, Chrome, and IE with all the same result. It just blanks out the board.
