It seems pretty clear that >every chess server boasts its share of local eccentrics :) Over a year ago, I did a brief survey and maybe wrote some notes on paper. I don't know if there's a comprehensive and up-to-date comparison on the web. Perhaps you could write one when you've completed your research?

Most if not all are free.
