Why this site?

I've been trying out some of the various turn-based sites and like what I see so far: good discussions here on the forums, a rating system for the game play. Can you tell me what other sites you have checked out, and why you have picked this site over others?

Thanks,

I tried microsofts "games zone" chess rooms. ok, but like everything to do with TRMITW <billy "hinges" gates> you have to get past a ton of crap before you can see the floor. Here is better. Slower attitudes. Quicker wits. Good conversation in your matches and a really well thought out site. The people seem to make RHP. There are kids and us old foggies and everything in between. Makes for a generally good time.
