brewsterbudgen Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) The old-style Pattaya-based Forums like Secrets, Addicts and Live were great "fun", as most people did know each other in real life. Aseannow is worthy, but nicely dull in comparison. Edited August 17, 2021 by brewsterbudgen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I would never think to ask anybody about what forums they are into online.... If the question happened to be raised I'd watch, learn, and listen before commenting.... A few years back, it seemed most of the foul, uncouth, bullying/fight provoking ones either dropped off or were culled out... Most of us on here just reflect the (semi ????) normal among us - sharing life's twisty, slippery, & unpredictable rocky road....Thai drivers and all..... Where we live there are very few foreigners, and I have asked the question. Only to be greeted with a blank stare and "what are you on about?" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was there ......... nobody dared bring their educated, Chinese, hi-so, earn their own money, stunningly beautiful wives though. Complete cock-fest, I ate as much of the free food as I could, then quickly moved on to the more entertaining girly bars. Caught a flight to Siem Reap last year to party with another member for a week (banned now), the next night Thailand closed it's borders, so only spent one evening smoking pot in the hotel 'pot smoking pavilion' with him before running for the last flight back. Also used to go drinking with Dave2 before he died, evenings in Loi Krow, mornings at the petrol station coffee shop (opposite Mad Dog).

You appear to have a totally opposed memory of these events to my pleasant ones! Maybe you had imbibed too much in the girly bars before your "attendance" or had too much later to properly recall the actual convivial get-togethers with fellow members!

If you have no contact with people possibly, but as its an anonymous forum you could well be talking to one on a regular basis and neither of you know the online persona. I dont think everyone discusses their online activity with others. I have met one or two over the years and some have become long term friends. Some I have known for many years here but never actually met. Its also true in my experience that the online persona is not always a true reflection of the real person. Judging a book by it cover (undercover?) comes to mind. What about the bar in Bangkok where TV members could get discount if they showed they where active on TV some years ago?

There are a couple here who are welcome at our home anytime, you know who you are. Most people don't like me online due to my brevity. In person I'm actually quite warm. You are one person who I definitely would never vote for if they ever held another POTY. Then again, I am often known to say the opposite of what I really mean.

Kinnock Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 There used to be a Thai Visa bar off lower Sukhumvit Road in Bangkok, and I went to the opening where I met several of the regular posters of the time. They all seemed like nice, decent folk, with no rabid racists, bar girl haters or sex-pats to be seen. I was slightly disappointed to be honest, everyone seemed so normal. I suspect our on-line characters are as fictional as our on-line names - perhaps an exaggeration of our real character? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoshowJones Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Have to watch what your saying as it would be against forum rules to name any posters, but there is one poster I would like to meet only to ask him why he gives you a "like" for one post, then you give the same opinion on another post and he gives you a "saddo", this sort of thing goes on and on. He gives reactions to my posts many times and gives me about an equal amount of "likes" and "saddos". 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
