Possibly, although compared to what they originally paid for it, not so great.

How can anyone posting here know what was paid for the site and know what they sold/merged it for?   So many posters suggest that they have that private information and then try to authoritatively opine about those values as if they are accurate.

Free speech on TT is a lie, the only topic I posted on was music, last in January-latest attempt to log in

Will the self appointed, not official, moderators, still be moderating content they don't like?

Got a mirror?  That very comment is a self-appointed, unofficial attempt to moderate those comments that you don't approve of.

I was talking about Truth Social so your reply is disingenuous. 

It's impossible to have sincere discussions with Trump cult members ... 

Just as it is impossible to have sincere (read rational) discussions with Biden's cult members.

Not in the slightest. Biden doesn't have a cult. He's a normal president. 

Trump doesn't have "a cult", either.

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.

 

Totally agree. I'm not sure what happened but it's been far better the last couple of months.

 

Whatever happened, it was a huge improvement so big thanks to whoever made that change. 

 

I wish the owners the best of luck with the merger.

Agree and at least they don't lie about free speech like TT has been

It's all the same people anyway. Most have accounts on both.

What makes you think that?   I'm one of the many who didn't know there was a Thaiger forum until this merger produced all the comments about it and, if those comments are to be believed, it's definitely not worth going to have a look at it.

Congratulations

That's all very well and good (is it?) but how will all this impact me the user?

 

Change is scary!

 

 

They will soon charge a fee to read the news as they did with their news channel on YouTube...

Of course he does!

One of Trump’s greatest assets is feeling no obligation to tell the truth

You chose to be an adult member of this forum , knowing the rules as an adult, didn't you, but now you want those standards dropped to accommodate your vocabulary?

 

A ban on pedantry would be a decent change, to be fair.

As would a ban on the chronic misinterpretation of the vocabulary of the English language and fatuous posts.

So, you're one of those get banned and come back blokes, the bane of any forum, a good reason to keep odd-balls well out of the way........🥴

But... "Dan" . Where the bloody hell are you??? 

 

[Jingthing]

I would like to know if the new bosses will have the same or a different policy on tolerating racist hate speech including Jew hatred which is a form of racism.

In the wake of the current Middle East conflict, Jew hatred has spiked globally, including on this forum, sometimes voiced by obvious Nazi types with obvious classic Nazi type rhetoric.

People are saying the new thing will be very free speech.

So will that be all encompassing or have limits regarding racist speech (whether politically neutral, from the "progressive" left or from the extremist right)?

Ever go to the Thai Visa bar they had on Sukhumvit? was surprised that failed as well.

The New Wave bar that they hooked up with didn't fail, far from it, it was The ThaiVisa Lounge aspect that failed.

Misleading headline. George tells us that Thaiger has BOUGHT Asean Now.

 

How can anyone be CONFUSED with that, George told us.

But I get it. Facts and reality are of no import to Trumpists.

I don't believe that you do "get it".   Do you know the meaning of the word "irony"?

these figures being bandied about are absolute nonsense, pure specualation and couldnt be further from the truth. That said the forum wouldnt be what it is without such absurd guesses and unfounded nonsense.

They sound pretty cool 👍

 

We have some great mods here and I hope they get a raise. I did have a run-in with one, but he improved.

 

My only real complaints are that the bigots and prominent trolls are too well tolerated. But they would argue they need even more leeway to enjoy their bashing and spreading further bigotry. The other is the suppression of free speech in favor of modern political correctness and the liberal party line. COVID was the most egregious example.
