Ideally you need 'Polywatch' - this with a cloth and effort will polish out the plastic screen. Its relatively expensive (for a liquid polish) and possibly hard to find in Thailand. But as a second option get a tube of 'wenol' metal polish (prevalent in Thailand any hardware shop) apply the same cloth/effort regime

Offer to pay the first months rent and deposit on a new place away from where you stay or 20,000 cash to just leave. A small amount of cash for a quick end to your nightmare.

This would be I suspect about as effective as giving biscuits to a puppy dog

Seems to me that the Government/Junta is focused on illegal workers and not the semantics of how many days stay or what manner of accommodation used constitutes a bona fide tourist.

To that end the only definitive litmus test is to 'follow the money', a de facto tourist will be funded wholly by income from out-with Thailand, an imitation teacher, timeshare scamster, bar renter, etc etc will subsist on monies from within Thailand. The practicalities of readily checking all would appear daunting but insufficient funds from outside the Kingdom would be far more realistic and just barometer than any arbitrary 'quick fix' days in/out maxima

I always wear a ton + of SUV

I find it gives me admirable protection from motorbikes

Hungarian Antal Racz was arrested in Hua Hin on suspicion of shooting two persons to death and seriously wounding 14 others, by gunfire and hand grenade is what Gen Wuthi described as a family feud. A Hungarian court sentenced Mr Racz to life imprisonment, but at some point he escaped to Thailand.

Possibly to pursue a career in politics?

And without the 'certified copy' vaunted in the first immigration announcement 

pray tell oh omniscient officialdom how a foreign national can retain his/her passport for your minions' divine perusal while say applying for visas to other countries

Why is it always the Thai way to dream up a solution

announce it

then with ref to the tsunami of queries and angst

'clarify' it

Can they never think it though first

Or

failing that dont pharmacies have any balm for jerking knees?

Sham boxer, trying to buy drugs from a non drug seller, phoney knife fight, subdued by imitation police

You couldnt invent it

Just business as usual in lala land

or with knives

apparently

There is a special US Postal rate for printed media called Airmail M-Bags, which may suit your requirements

see:

Getting them from UK to USA though might put the dampeners on that project

OP check around the airlines a lot will give you 30kgs basic in cattle class (45/50kgs with FF gold card status), more if you upgrade.

Does this mean that the cameraman did it?

Dont see the problem with a bona fide tourist with a bank account.

Ive been a tourist in Thailand taking four holidays a year in the Kingdom for the past 18 years (never once made an in/out 'border run' though).

Have two Thai bank accounts (one as back up in the event of vagaries of their connection to the internet) both always have been fed directly from overseas.

& two holiday homes in the Kingdom.

Nowhere in the west would this be considered strange or in any way the signs of someone abusing visas (though to be frank I fail to see how swathes of people availing themselves of the then accepted normal application of the rules in Thailand - and the similarly tolerated ancillary businesses can retroactively be termed 'abusers') or indeed intending to go skulking about scratching a living below the radar.

back to back border runners have to show cash in new 500s only

&

the new taxation by customs on travellers with 10K baht + of personal items has to be paid in crisp new style 500s too

quelle horreur

Ditch the boots

Get some steel around you

N.B.

Don't pack any bananas

This republic is all stocked up

Bali Hai has a new covered (Pay) car park, well signed.

All pretty well organised & painless
