But Americans are satisfied with the public service statements and pictorial "evidence" to confirm combined US military might and assistance in "provision" of aid which in reality is a mortgage on Ukrainian territory ahead of Russia.

Then I invite admin to provide such from mandatory records . When it comes to abusive posts directed at myself I do indeed take screen shots. I pretend nothing

Easy to say and easy to avoid proof? Much of my commentary has been made with yourself in mind. Are you bitter as a "post Mod" ?

I would be interested in being shown examples. Can you say I have called anyone "stupid" or similar in any response ? I may have suggested "stalker" or even troll on perhaps one occasion but in any case in answer to .

I think one or two partied with Adam !

I consider derogatory statements and demeaning language purely to detract or deflect even the possibility of valid significance of another person's input as abuse whether or not any such contains curses in attempt to suppress in defense of intransigent opinion. Employing singular expressions such as "Troll" as an automated response to unwelcome challenge to opinion fits my broad definition.

I believe the underlying issue in this thread is not about "more" rules but what rules can assist in combating excessive conflict which has the effect of driving away interest and thus forum members. How to set limits on those who are intransigent in self opinion and correctness they are incapable of tolerating any question or challenge to their or the mindset of a clique of opinion? If there were an audio version of some topics in AN all that would be heard is hysterical screaming and shouting down.

Highest ratio of expats to bar stools?

Huh? Is it a forum for discussion or just a news service? Argue I want not. Debate yes.

Dangerous ground if the OP can eliminate unwelcome genuine debate ?

That might be appropriate to those who get Toxic and abusive. What about cumulative and persistent derogatory sneers and snide accusations? I know of more than one member has opted to simply depart the forum altogether in the face of such tactics. I can understand the task of moderating is probably thankless but some moderators have had a history of favouring some of the most blatant "offenders" which has not enhanced the confidence of many. I will say "yourself" an exception which is most likely why you are still onboard.

Perhaps "muting" them if persistently so in a thread ?

All too typically this thread is demonstrating the general mentality of a group who routinely hijack the "mood " and if unable to dictate consensus impose themselves with sneers and accusations more often than not applicable to themselves !

Lucky you. I think the OP was referring to rubber trees which present issues more than just "overhang"

Wow. You research writing styles of people posting in a forum "debating" conflict? Perhaps my writing style creates confusion to observers who are more comfortable with comic books or gaming speak ?

"our" Headman is quite aware of such issues but still not so happy to intercede in such disputes. He and I often wai respectfully in normal community contact rather than any conflict interaction. Perhaps the issue for some is a failure to achieve social and community integration. Regardless Thai property law does enable a neighbour to cut back overhanging foliage . Establishing justification via Pu yai baan or higher in the absence of neighbour agreement obviates being sued for damage or demise of trees or income derived from. Never forget Thailand has complex interpretations of legal issues. Ultimately Provincial administration approval that usually is indifferent to local sensitivities provides lasting indemnity to all involvd.

No.

You have the right to insist the overhanging foliage is removed. But would be folly to do it yourself. As suggested approach Pu Yai Bann . If that has no solution advise Pu Yai Bann you will approach Provincial Administration . The Pu Yai Baan will often be reluctant to poo in local nest but quite happy to be over ruled

I suspect she may be right in terms of prudent social fiscal consideration but vested interest in the payoff of the populist concept will force implementation. Greed rules.

Some might argue that it has never been really alive so existing on life support offers promise of possible wealth or bliss in succumbing to death. Asia demonstrates stark reality of the circumstance most of the worlds populace relatively exists in. No mention of what the depreciated eventual cash in hand buys for the savvy in Cambodia.

These "familiar" shops are undoubtably franchise operations or affiliated "counter pay" approved businesses belonging to well heeled elitists. As with previous or existing populist subsidized payments that supposedly are for material purchases exclusive of cash, alcohol or tobacco an extra deduction for cash payouts and bogus claims for soap powder or infant milk product purchases is about to receive a 600, 000 million boost ! A local village community is already excited about the plans for a stand alone 7/11 outlet that I would estimate will only be viable due to this new scheme. "Consumer confidence" soars in Thailand another headline proclaims . For a select few that will probably be correct.

There is such a dedication to a singular desire for mass human extermination that renders the exponents of that desire in this topic incapable of being able to contemplate a now relegated inferior war zone that is also not attracting favourable outcomes.
