  1. Just incredible. Someone asks about ants in his kettle, and sure as Thailand is hot we get insults hurled at him, and the OP is just as bad in retaliation. Pathetic. WTF is wrong with you people? Two people I'm happy not to know.
  2. The 10-day forecast I have for Kalasin Province shows no rain at all.
  3. Tell Visa, not me. I don't make the rules, they do. All I am doing is saying what they told me their policy is, and why.
  4. Digging deep, I found this which I've enabled. Also receiving invites to groups is now disabled.
  5. As I said, only two friends and my wife have my number. I can only assume that AIS sell their customer info.
  6. Here's the gambling site spam that disables block.
  7. It's there. But, as I wrote, only a couple of people have my phone number. If they don't have my number they can't find me with it. In theory. But, as others have said, it might be bots trying thousands of numbers as in any advertising or scam attempts.
  8. TiT - everything has a price, so an enterprising individual looking to hook the unsuspecting into some fiendish scam will buy a list of numbers. TiT - what does this imply? A decoration? Sorry, my bad. I don't think you understand. TIT means This Is Thailand. It doesn't mean Only In Thailand. The comment referred to Thailand as this is a forum about Thailand.
  9. Weren't the closing hours changed in some areas a few months ago?
  10. Can you show us where anyone said this only happens in Thailand?
  11. I've had the number for at least 10 years, so I'll go with the beginning of a scam.
  12. As far as I know there is no way to trace the phone number of someone contacting you on the LINE app.
  13. I asked one and they said it was from s friend. Which it wasn't.
  14. You're probably right.
  15. People who contact me are not advertisers so would not have bought my number. As far as I know. Of course, those who contact me might be a front. Maybe I should carefully pursue one of them sometime to see where it leads.
  16. Nobody cares. Thailand - Hub Of Apathy. The police often don't even investigate child sexual assault unless forced to by social media. A taxi fare dispute? Forget it.
  17. I got a gambling group site and black was disabled. But I was able to delete it though.
  18. Strange, when they aren't selling anything. Or maybe I don't get that far with them before deleting...
  19. It is, but if no-one that I don't know has my number how can they find me by number?
  20. It isn't the same. Phone companies sell your number to advertisers, or Bots call thousands of numbers until they snare someone.
  21. I have, over a period of time, received several LINE posts from strangers, always with a photo of a young woman, saying they have found me by phone number. Only two people in Thailand, other than my wife, have my phone number, both male. So how is this possible? Some accompanying messages ask if I am still a tour guide or own a restaurant. I block them, but how can people find me by my phone number when it isn't available except to a few?
  22. I tend to agree. Anyone carrying a deadly weapon is prepared to kill, and so surrenders any right to live themself. If they are prepared to kill others, they should also be prepared to die. Fair's fair.
  23. Some people are simply wired differently, in a way we cannot understand. Some have other perversions, just not as sickening. The brain is a complex thing and sometimes there's a short-cu=circuit somewhere.
