Hi, my good friend played here under a user name of timtim, he had to leave due to financial problems. He has given me his account. I'm only about 1300-1450 rated. Best of wishes and I like the site.

Did he take his computer and chess software to a pawnbrokers?

Originally posted by claretnblueThere is another post somewhere that gives the reasons but I guess I will tell you anyway. Tim was only 15. His father lost his job due to a major cutback and it has been hard for his father to find another job because he is in his 50's. Tim went and found a job as soon as he found out but his family was no longer able to afford extras.(computer) They could only hand necesities. As for helping out. I'm also 15 and have to pay for a car. My father has been helping when he can but we are not the richest people on the block either.

P.S. he can't play at school because school is out and the school has blocked this site so it is not axcessible.
