Will we lose most of the writing talent who have posted so steadfastly during past years; and then who will replace them? You need to address the issue more directly. No why so many have left Thailand but why so many have left the forum, not to be replaced. Look forward to your factual reply (before you're banned). 555 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you live in China but talk about Thailand? I think there was a mini exodus from visas or extensions etc. being harder to get here. For the most part I do not think so many have left here who can help themselves. But I have noticed a dwindling of TV members not posting anymore. Who knows for what ever reason as it could be from moving out of Thailand or even being expelled or suspended too many times and watching their P's and Q's. As for me, no plans on going anywhere until I am forced out or die. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billd766 Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 I am still here and will be to the end. I finished my working life on 23 May 2009. Flew back from NZ on 26th May and haven't left since. A bit battered and frayed at the edges due to the forex rates but still ticking along. I am 77 and entering the bad time of the year when it rains (much needed) and the damn grass has started to grow like crazy. Still grass cutting on 3 rai keeps me out of mischief in the mornings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all the years of my membership, I have found very (VERY) few forum members who I would consider to have a writing talent. (I won't embarrass them by naming them, but currently I recognize only ONE member as having decent writing talent.... and it certainly is not me). For the most part, posts are simply bar-stool talk, tin-hat nutters, political extremists, wimpy snowflakes, extremist religious loonies, ex-SAS liars, health-freaks, marketeers, those who are unable to recognise sarcasm when it smacks them in the mouth, and of course Americans...... ... and that's fine, because that's what this forum is for... I don't seem to fit any of those slots. Where did you find your member number? I think mine is #5,7xx and I joined in November 2003. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss fly fishing on Rapid Creek. I also fish in the creek, we live about half a mile away just off Red Rock Canyon Rd. It truly is a very small world Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It truly is a very small world You will know this @frantick My wife loves the trail along the creek edge with many benches where you can just sit and watch the world go by, then over the road to the lake. Her favorite place is the gazebo on the lake. Bores the Hell outta me, but she could sit there for hours Edited June 5, 2020 by GinBoy2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked motorcycling old keystone road between Rockerville and Keystone, Sheridan Lake Road, etc. But I don't want to highjack this thread too much, so I'll stop there.
