TheAppletons Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 2 hours ago, george said: Wow! It could be several things: - Just a rumor - AN is buying Thaiger - AN is merging with Thaiger - Thaiger is buying AN I wonder which alternative is most likely? Yes it could be several of the things that you posted. Regarding the link in the OP as it relates to your scenarios: a. Clearly it's a rumor until it happens b. Doubtful but anything is possible (until it isn't.) c. The "rumor" states that Thaiger will merge the AN/Thaigertalk forums.... d. ....after Thaiger purchases AN. So at least three of your stated scenarios may all be true simultaneously. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self proclaimed tech guru, expert on women and business agitator Dan Cheeseman and his Inspire Group a few years back took over what was once just a small local Thai forum with thousands of regular readers and developed it in to a multi country internet mega project with tens of regular readers. There will be a long queue of bidders for it all wanting to be associated with Thailand's most successful Vlogger. Thanks for all your great work Dan. It wont be the same without you mate. If there is truth that Dan bought it with investors 35 million baht and now is selling it for 3 million baht, that is a solid 8.5% return for the investors. Nothing to be sneezed at these days with low interest rates. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were promises that it was going to be bigger than Thaivisa itself' I think the print version failed after the third edition. I never saw a fourth, not sure I saw a third to be honest. It didnt bring much inspiration. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it was a disaster. They had hair trigger bans and heavy censorship. It was far, far worse than AN ever was at its depths a couple of years ago. 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post george Posted April 17 Popular Post Share Posted April 17 TOPIC CLOSED Let's revisit this issue at some point in the future. I'm closing this now as it's gone off topic and downhill with lots of rumors and speculation, plus a few insults. Cheers 🙏 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
