Some of them are postal players, so it does not directly compare to OTB.  There
were a couple GM's that have posted here from time to time (one named anatoly, I
think?).  Djorde is approximately GM level.

There are not many here that are better than Vincent who post regularly.  If
there are, you can count them on one hand.
