Anyone know any free online correspondance chess sites that offer maybe one tourney playing ability and around 10 or so games with an easy interface like RHP? Now, don't get in a hissy fit, I'm not leaving here or saying this site sucks, I think it rocks and I'll still be around, it's just that buying things/services online goes against my morality, I honestly don't trust this process. I'm just looking for another site so I can get more games down other then my 6 each on gameknot and RHP, so I can play at a constant pace if I wish to. Don't suggest timed chess sites plz, as those tend to be blitz, and for some reason, I seem to get stressed out over these and play chess very badly at all times no matter how much practice.

Why you ''don't trust this process''?

Also using them goes against your morality or it's only coughing bucks that goes against your morality?

Oh boy, I'm not geting into this debate. Listen, if I'm willing to pay for something, I'll go to the store and buy it of top quality. The point of the Internet, IMHO, is to do cheap stuff for free, what you paid for to get the Internet, is what you paid for that entertainment. If you have to throw 20-40 bucks a month/year for each thing and site you visit online, this becomes a huge problem. I'm afraid, the Internet may only be something in a long list of things strictly reserved for the rich if these sites suggesting gross payments continue, and that's simply not cool. On top of that, I hate credit cards and the credit system, I do not trust it, and I certainly do not trust it across a computer screen. I do not have a credit card, and I plan on never geting one, if you are poor like I and thus will be poor your entire life, geting a credit card is a huge no-no, and I'm not foolish enough to mail in money to some random postal adress.

The only way I would pay for something online, is if I met the said person who runs the site in person, then I give him the money, and make sure I get what I want from the site.

No, I'm not paying 1000 rent a month for an apartment, I just said in my city area, a livable apartment is like 1000 a month, there are one room apartments, and yes, the bathroom isn't a seperate room, that cost less then that, and they are pretty dirty, ugly and disgusting too, I live in one of those. Here the landlords overcharge prices, that's capitalism for ya, and they get away with it, because everyone needs a place to live, it's a monopoly. This is why living arrangements should be 100% COMMUNISTIC, no capitalism involved.

BTW, I'm geting a little tired of you guys personally treating me like crap because I have no money. That's the one reason why I want money, not for the things, it's because ppl only treat you with respect and the decentcy of a human being unless your rich. . .

I would treat you the same if you were a millionaire. Frankly your constant whining about why you lost games rather than taking charge and admiting you got outplayed annoys me.

I am so sorry to tell you this but I will: Money doesn't buy respect...
