This is one mixed up article. Most of the Internet Chess Club stuff duplicates that in that article. I am proposing to strip this down to be a neutral, more general article on chess servers. BlueValour 01:47, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

I have removed:
neither is as notable as the others listed. Chess.net has no article and the Kurnik article doesn't even mention chess! BlueValour 18:50, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
Reply: Kurnik is listed as a chess server in the article on chess, that is why I thought I list it here. It has around 1500 players online at any given time, which makes it larger than FICS. Voorlandt 19:29, 5 February 2007 (UTC)
As a footnote: there used to be a multiplayer game called "Chessweb" which was supposed to be a community effort, you took a color and played the best move as you saw it. There was a lot of banter associated with each game and it was more social than playing "serious" chess. The drawback was that some people took it too seriously. It was a feature of the server that weaker players might reverse a position by playing a weaker move- but it sometimes caused argument and I suppose the creator got fed up with being umpire and resetting positions and stopped it.
