Membership List shrinking?

Post by geoffgammon » Mon Oct 15, 2012 6:53 pm

The membership list seems to have shrunk from 6909 to 5719 overnight, can anyone explain this please?
He who knows not, and knows not that he knows not, is obviously as confused as I am!

I have not renewed my membership and i doubt that we will renew Peter when it runs out if your hardly playing any chess games what is the point of membership?
when you are successful many losers bark at you.

They've removed all the "1 Bronze membership" category. These were conversions from the old MO system. Evidently not all the MOs have reported renewals to the ECF yet, leaving players expecting to renew through MOs in a state of doubt.

(edit) They've also removed some Gold memberships where these were showing a due date in the past (/edit)

Thanks Roger. I realised some memberships were expiring but around 1200 seemed rather a lot.
