What are these legal troubles? I have not seen anything in the news about it and we have received a fair number of payment from Russian members already this year.

I am not apposed to adding another payment system but I have not found one yet that has the level of global reach and trust that PayPal has, and any new system we select also has to work in Turkey.

It's been more than a year. Are you now convinced that PayPal doesn't work in Russia? And what do players from Russia do now?

In January of 2022 when this topic was opened there were no problems with PayPal in Russia, since then there has of course been an unprovoked invasion and international sections imposed because of the ongoing war of aggression against Ukraine, the world is different. I have been very flexible since then with helping those in Russia use our site and I am not going to hold the actions the Russian government against those of our members who happen to live in that country, but trying to find some way around those sanctions is a not something I am even going to think about.

Do I understand correctly that you can provide free access to the Gold account?
If so, my ID is 3197 :)

Mikhail! So good to see you back after so long, yes of course for someone who was with us so long ago, just gave you a gold account.
