Popular Post Madgee Posted November 25, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 25, 2023 I'm glad AN is back, even though it's got problems at present but I'm sure they'll get it sorted in time. I lurked on a few other forums just to see what the general traffic was like and did notice the usual suspects from AN having to get their 'fix'. My observations: Bleak Bore. It's just a free-for-all slagging match between members. Thai Dreaming. I accidentally came across this one and noticed it has some of the ex-mods from Thaiger on it. Very little traffic from one day to the next. I thought it should be a dating site with a name like that! Thaiger. I'm surprised it doesn't have more traffic than it does. So many news stories are put in the forum with no responses from members and totally plastered with ads. Still, it's not too bad for general news etc. but it lacks accurate info about daily life in Thailand. For me, it seems too political and serious but nonetheless, overall pretty decent. I see a few members of AN moaning about the loading speed of this site, be patient guys, I'm sure it'll get sorted and the whole site will be back to usual in the near future. The trolls are back, the visa know-all with an attitude problem is back in fine form, and the EV kings are making a comeback. What's not to love? AN has probably more traffic than all the rest put together and certainly makes me giggle when reading some of the bickering while having my early-morning coffee fix. IMO, there is no substitute for AN although many would like to see its demise. as mentioned on other forums. Again, glad you're back! 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
