There must be more to this story because the Twitter account would work from anywhere in this world. And he had lots of followers. It seems all posts are deleted. The website still exists https://www.stickboybkk.com/ Never visited that website, until now. But I noticed that the most recent posts seem to be 8-9 months old.

The problem with his and other Twitter accounts was for me that there was just too much. Obviously it's nice to see from time to time a beautiful girl. But with Twitter it was 10 girls, 10 "I have a beer in xyz" and one news message. At least for me that was a reason not to follow him (and others) on Twitter. On the WWW it was easy to just scan the news and look at anything else on demand. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adumbration Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 Perhaps Stickboy is one of those effected by the incoming PayPal changes next month. There will be lots of people who work online that will leave because they cannot draw down their online income via PayPal if residing in Thailand. Simon 48 is one example (but he has alternative payment solution in place now). I am also effected by this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mstevens Posted January 16, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 16, 2022 All this <deleted> about hookers and prostitution talking it up as nightlife and sanuk and other warm, fuzzy terms are fooling themselves and putting lipstick on a pig. These websites are dinosaurs from a time passed highlighting the worst of Bangkok. Good riddance to their demise. Here's hoping they are not replaced by others.

Stickboy's posts were a lot more entertaining! Hope he comes back and resumes posting. That's an understatement. Stick really went off the deep end on the bar scene. Claimed all the girls had HIV and all the farang that went to those places were STD riddled drunks and scumbags. Talk about alienating your audience.

There was a time a looooooong time ago when Stickman wrote about fun in the bars. That is why many of us read what he wrote. And then he changed and many people didn't read him anymore. And then Stickboy came up, IMHO better than Stickman ever was. Later Stickboy also bought the domain Stickman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Meeseeks Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 IMO stickboy was at least ten years to late to the scene to have enjoyed it properly. The bitterness and annoyance exhibited in his social media was a result of knowing that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bitterness and annoyance exhibited in his social media was a result of knowing that. Really? I enjoyed nightlife in Bangkok since about 1995. Obviously it changed, and many years ago certain things happened which mostly don't happen now anymore. But I think pre Covid anybody who wanted to have fun and who was not too stingy could have a lot of fun. I heard about wild things which happened before I arrived in Bangkok. I am sure it would have been exiting to experience that. But I can't say I feel like I arrived too late and missed something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonnyF Posted January 17, 2022 Share Posted January 17, 2022 I quite enjoyed his content. I found some decent restaurants and watering holes based on his posts. But when your income comes primarily from advertising bars that are no longer allowed to open, you're not going to make much money and I guess 2 years was long enough to wait. It's very weird how he disappeared so quickly without warning and a lot of the content on the websites disappeared as well. I guess the full story will come out sooner or later. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
