Miserable old gits stuck near a jungle somewhere with nothing better do 24/7 . Yep, and more than a few have passive-aggressive personalities. One post they are obnoxious jerks, then they say something nice which lowers some folks' guard. Their views and opinions are the only ones they will tolerate. What a pathetic life they must live. I have systematically put them on Ignore. Sadly, they don't know they are being ignored. But, if lots and lots of us would put them on ignore, well, eventually they would figure it out and go away. We all know who they are...... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandPapillon Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 plenty of angry people on every Thai forums, twitter or Facebook plain boring, with nothing to say or add so they try to create their own personality by mocking on spelling and other petty details ???? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with what you said. It was particularly apparent on world news when it existed, but one "side" was so dominant that the other "side" more or less gave up, and the dominant "side" ended up talking to each other. Hardly conducive to a robust debate. Perhaps it was an example of "cancel culture" before such a term became popular in media speak. Personally I'm happy that world news got the fate it IMO deserved- oblivion. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People need to vent, and in too many cases people can't vent to other people in person, so they do it on anonymous forums. Nothing unusual there. In the past they might have done it down the pub, but in these strange times that's often not possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The world would IMO be a better place if people were more neutral and prepared to listen to both sides of a discussion, instead of trying to shut down any conversation that doesn't fit THEIR viewpoint. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

watgate Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 I don't take this forum serious so need or desire to give my reasoning or explanation for why things are the way they are. Each to their own. I do ask at times and generally get some valuable info which I am looking for and do appreciate. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThLT Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 14 hours ago, BangkokReady said: There's way more animosity online from left-wing nutjobs. They're more numerous, more persistent and far more tolerated/enabled by various platforms. But the OP was talking about people on the forum asking about visa info and things like that, and getting answers such as: Quote responses are mostly ridicule, insulting, accusing the OP of lying, is saying "x", is not sayingyx", has a hidden agenda,, or is being paid to post, and more. I would say there are a lot of pro-Trump, and conspiracy theorists having waaay too much time on their hands, researching conspiracy theories for half the day, and then coming here on TVF and seeing every thread/post in a similar way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still on that Trump bad bandwagon I see. You do know he's not president anymore, don't you? 5555555555555555555555555 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farang10328470127340197412 Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I'm new here but I find it amusing watching these salty old water bags regurgitating their stale boomer memes and crying. Let 'em have at it. It's not hurting anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
