Good luck with the changes. Couldn't agree more, not being able to use the word Bollo*cks is very frustration as an Englishman. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let the profanities and obscenities flow freely.

Popular Post heybruce Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 14 hours ago, Red Phoenix said: ThaigerTalk - the forum of The Thaiger - is dedicated to Free Speech with little to no moderation. Only when members report breaches/complaints a Moderator will look at the case and make a fair decision with TT's Free Speech policy as over-riding principle. Will be interesting to see how that will affect AseanNow's current moderation approach. No moderation unless someone complains? Let's see if that's true. A review from Trustpilot: "Thaiger, in many cases, simply opines and pastes articles, as it gleams them from the world presses without sighting sources; plagiarism at its finest." https://www.trustpilot.com/review/thethaiger.com 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 2 hours ago, Red Phoenix said: Yes, on ThaigerTalk you can trash Trump or Biden without any moderator interference. Free Speech also pertains to speech you don't like. And of course it results in interesting discussions as well as mud-slinging. I was talking about Truth Social so your reply is disingenuous. It's impossible to have sincere discussions with Trump cult members (similar to Putin Z bots). 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a recent taken photo? Splendid idea, isn't it? Not haters anymore, no gutter language, no proof of stupidity. Feels like heaven will come😂🤣🥳🤗 This is my picture from when it was Thai Visa.

I thought the best was " The Serene Bay of Pattaya" Now Serene keeps popping up in many other places that are the complete opposite to Serene. And then we have very bad Translations.

It’s not like it’s an integral part of anyone’s life Judging by the huge numbers of posts by some posters, I would say you are wrong about the forum not being an integral part of anyone's life. I dare say that there are some who post here, who, not long ago, had more posts in one month, than I had in the entire 14 years and 4 months that I have been a member! 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rumak Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 (edited) I am absolutely thrilled to have two of the greatest forums , not just in Thailand but worldwide ! ... joining forces, mods holding hands and doing sacred rituals to enhance their powers of perception of good and evil ( posts ) . Seriously , for an old, bitter man like myself......prone to outbursts of" NOT SO ! RED BULL ! " and other tin hat theories that have no place in a free world .... This will be a blessing . No longer will i need to put energy into two different media legends to receive that vaunted vacation to solitude island . NO sir . Now, just one "misinformation" required to be given a firm reminder . NOTE: To start off the new "union" ...... all members shall be required to undergo a .....uh..... little quiz ( for placement purposes only) . All will be given this Rumak post to read and then answer a simple question : Was it a. inspiring and honest b. typical far rght Trump hogwash c. slightly tongue=in=cheek d. duh ( emoji, emoji ) disclaimer: i have yet to peruse the new rules and guidelines , but i am sure they will be just as fair and impartial as they have always been . Viva la union ! Onward thru the fog..... and may all hold their members high in the glory of a new chapter for mankind.

Popular Post NoshowJones Posted April 19 Popular Post Share Posted April 19 3 hours ago, mstevens said: So what's the plan? Will the server get an overhaul? It really is very slow. Will there be a rebranding? ThaiVisa was generally well-regarded while I think the rebranding to ASEANNow didn't work out so well and has been fraught with technical issues. What about moderation? Will this be a place where jokers are encouraged? Will the moderation be heavy-handed? Will it be a place for freedom of speech? Or will it just be more of the same....? After a certain change in the not too distant past, I would say that the mods on AN/TV have been handling things very well. 3 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steevjee Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 15 hours ago, snoop1130 said: BANGKOK: -- We have some fantastic news to share with all of you today! ASEANNOW has officially joined The Thaiger family, following the acquisition of all our digital assets by The Thaiger from Choice Group Asia Co., Ltd. This marks a significant milestone as we combine forces with one of Thailand’s top English language news publishers. This new chapter is not just about growth; it’s about enhancing the experience for all our forum members and readers. Darren Lyons, CEO of The Thaiger, shared his thoughts about the acquisition: “We’ve always held ASEAN NOW in high regard, particularly during its days as Thai Visa. The synergies between our platforms are clear, and we’re excited to start working together with ASEAN NOW's team to drive forward innovations and improvements across the board.” George Anderssen, ASEAN NOW's COO, commented on the opportunities ahead: “This is a thrilling time for ASEAN NOW. With the increased emphasis on forums by search engines like Google, our platform's growth is accelerating even faster. We’re ready to leverage this momentum and achieve new heights.” In response to recent discussions, we want to assure our community that our core team and moderators will continue to be an integral part of ASEANNOW. The Thaiger is committed to enhancing site speed, evolving our news style, expanding our social media activities, increasing video content, and above all, enriching your experience on our platform.
