Does anyone know of a chess server that has a membership that compares with
ICC (Internet Chess Club)?

Please respond by Email.

Check out FICS. Many players say that ICC offers nothing more than
the average player desires, and FICS matches ICC on most fronts. Oh
yeah, ICC is free! Even the interface is free. Let's see, free vrs
$$??

Yes, thanks for catching that. ICC costs about 49 buck a year. FICS,
zero.

Yes. It is FICS. This server requires software interface, software costs, and
the service is free. Just search the web under FICS.
