Why are people so nasty on here?

You know, you might get a better response if you didn't assume what others you know nothing about are doing on a daily basis. And bragging about traveling all over Thailand isn't too big of a deal, as any expat has the ability to do this most any time, IF they wanted to. Also, people can be on this forum from most anywhere on the planet, as long as they have an internet connection , a phone or a PC. 


He is mentally incapable of conceiving that others might live lives that are far more stimulating and materially expansive than his own. This limitation is central to his psychopathology, driving a persistent belief that everyone else must experience the same level of emptiness and must endure the same financial constraints that he does.
 

Because he doesn't have the means himself, he cannot comprehend how other people can travel freely within Thailand or abroad, or even retire and spend time in Western countries where living costs are far higher, all driven by the intense limitations of his own resources and narrow worldview.

    They are not nasty, they are simply Americans.

  • Likely they are fed up with the non stop trollish threads by the same  group of forum members.

I'm not "sitting" here for years. I've been around Thailand to the places I wanted to visit, from the beaches to the extreme northeast, mountains and the western edge.  I'm staying here until we move. I could go anywhere else I'd like if I chose to.

 

Yes, I would like to see the Chiang Mai area before I leave but it's no big deal if I do or don't, as it's much the same as almost anywhere else in Thailand, besides seeing the hill tribes, which would be the reason I'd go.

 

You assume all day long about what people here are doing. Don't you realize you have never met anyone here and do not know what they are doing nor where they are going every day? What people say or do here is but a fraction of their everyday lives, of which you know almost nothing.Pretty much simple common sense.

You sit on the forum 7 days a week lecturing people with no self awareness that you are a narc.

I was just giving him some advice on how to avoid the constant tit for tat here, assuming what people are doing, where they go, and if they have a girlfriend. He doesn't have any idea, and it's childish to argue like this, as it just has the arguments go on and on, calling names and making groundless assumptions, unless of course that's his  agenda, because adults do not work this way. Actually thinking people are afraid of joining a Christmas party instead of the more likely excuse that it isn't something most here would do anyway, that it doesn't sound appealing, and if others here want to meet in person, they can anytime they wanted.

Huh? You bragged about 100 relationships, lifting weights, 5000 cds. Being bored in Isaan. I ripped you apart several times with links.

Nobody wants your advice and ST is deranged. Why nobody likes him. Funny how the most deranged support each other.

Actually I'm online all the time here, even when I'm not at home, so it appears that I'm always here. Never think about that? I help here when I can, and call out the few that are prejudiced and talking trash about other foreigners. That you still don't understand what a narcissist is , is evident, as my life here proves otherwise.

 

if you can remember that I've never been to Chiang mai, among a few other things that are usually twisted to suit your thinking, you would understand my motives for still being here, that I treat and respect women very well, am here for my daughter, do not use anyone and always help when I can, shows quite the opposite of a narc's actions, so you might want to educate yourself more about the definition before once again, assuming.

I didn't brag about anything I've done but listed what I did, along with what others here say daily. You have never proven me wrong once, so try again. And it;s 50K cd's.

You're a self obsessed narc. One of the biggest narcs. All about you. A dozen people called you out on it.

If you would carefully read the posts I've joined, seeing there are thousands, you would see that I help where I can, because it's what I do, whereas you never help but just post one liners to provoke. You aren't fooling anyone.

You're a liar and 100% narc. I proved you wrong with scientific studies. It's pathetic how you never admit to being wrong.

The three or four here that call me a narcissist are narcissists themselves, and it's called deflection. Again, read up on narcissism like I have for the last 30 years, and you might more understand what it means, as it's obvious you have no clue.

You're a joke. Only a narc would have 100 failed relationships and not see it's them.

You do realize no one besides those few cronies of yours thinks this way right? You think you proved me wrong but can't list any time you have. It's all in your mind.

Posting is how people get days won, and if you would actually look at the number of thumbs down you get on YOUR posts, you would see how the majority here thinks about you. What you're doing now is diverting your attention to me instead of who you were attacking earlier, and when I leave, it will be yet another, and again, you seem to miss this entirely.

You're full of it. I posted studies on depression that proved you wrong. You're a complete liar.

He is very childish, but he is not engaging in genuine argument. He is trolling, pursuing a fundamentally different agenda. His constant name-calling, insults, and assertions about others’ actions, living situations, feelings, or social connections are entirely devoid of factual basis, but are never intended to be factual. The sole purpose is to provoke anger and defensive reactions. While this tactic rarely succeeds on this forum, he persists regardless. His behavior resembles, in a crude and ineffective form, a psychological technique known as elicitation, used by intelligence agencies to extract information without direct questioning. Unlike that method, however, his efforts achieve nothing beyond highlighting his own immaturity, which is why he consistently holds the distinction of being the forum’s reigning thumbs-down champion.

Again, you have never proven me wrong. The only thing you know about depression is looking for links to try and disprove others here, that are biased opinions and not factual data, which is what I always go by, and already know.

Links had scientific studies ie facts. You are such a sore loser.

I would say most of the people here are just fine with me, as I tell the truth, don't BS, and help in topics I have knowledge about. You really can't see how you respond as you're blind to your own habits. I know the people that sometimes back you, but they do because they are also attacking the same people here. Those that disagree with you. And they also trash you in other topics, so they really aren't your friends.

The idea that depression is caused by a simple chemical imbalance in the brain, particularly low serotonin levels, is not supported by current scientific evidence. A comprehensive umbrella review of research, published in 2022 and reaffirmed in a 2025 update, found no clear evidence linking depression to abnormally low serotonin levels or activity.
