Chessup Facebook Group

Any chance of changing the FB Group to a private group? I have been an admin of quite a few FB groups over the years and I’ve found that there are usually more posts and comments when a group is private and that more people are inclined to join, simply due to the privacy factor.

Just a suggestion :face_with_peeking_eye:

Yes we can update that (I actually thought it was private).

It is a group we actually do not monitor very closely and could use an admin - would you like to admin it as well?

I wasn’t hinting at being an admin! I currently have my own FB group (non related to chess) but because of my own group I do log into FB at least a couple of times a day and so it wouldn’t be much more time checking into the chessup group, but I could only be a light, hands-on admin, checking for new members and any new posts etc, so I would be willing to give it a go as I do want to get back into playing chess a lot more and I am a supporter of the ChessUp board and what you are doing.

Didn’t know this group existed. Happy to join and be involved.

The chess.com ChessUp club is also a great way to get involved. You can play other ChessUp users OTB and participate in monthly puzzle solving challenges and competitions. Highly recommended to anyone who own ChessUp. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Thanks, I didn’t know about that. Is that available even if you don’t pay a monthly subscription - is it free?

The ChessUp club on chess.com is for everyone and free. There is a link in the description to get a monthly diamond for free.

I think I’ve joined the correct ChessUp group? “ChessUp (Official)” or something similar would be good to let everyone know that it’s the official group.

I’ve just found it, 362 members!

What’s the name of the group? Or link? I’d love to know if I’ve joined the correct group!

It is just called ChessUp, it is a public group on facebook available to anyone

This is the one I’m in, it’s a public group and so if it’s not made private soon then I’ll be leaving :grin:

Changed to private today - facebook says it takes 3 days to update.
