Meebo and Chess Chat Bar

Hi,

Every time I login to chess.com I'm automatically signed into chess chat, which incidentally has ads built in. Part of the reason I paid for my membership is to avoid ads -- so every time I log in, I've made it a habit of signing off of chess chat, in order to hide the Meebo bar.

I have no problem with chess chat itself, just the ads and oversized bar at the bottom of my screen. To remedy this situation, I propose chess.com implement either or both of these suggestions:

1. Allow users to hide the Meebo bar without first signing off chess chat.

2. Save user preferences (auto sign-in on login, auto hide on login) to the user's account settings, instead of caching them for the current browser session.

Thanks!

Is there an option to remove meebo chat?

You can completely turn off chat completely in your Privacy section (Account)

Thanks so much!
