See how every reply to your post is an assumption? We have fragile egos but have been right all along about his low self esteem, braggadocio way of speaking. Actually thinking traveling the world is an accomplishment compared to raising children for up to 38 years. That comes from a lack of real experience with others, putting yourself above all others, and not caring of the outcome of those actions.

We are birds of a feather, as our lives sometimes mirror the other. Working out for decades, responsibility for others for same, and actually doing right by others around us. Again, like a teenager, assuming how others he's never met (thank God for him), live their lives or how we interact with others, all the while living the life of a cheater and cheapskate. One reply after another, assumptions, exaggerations and lies. Fragile ego for sure, but unable to see the finger's pointed at him.

Expect more of the same drivel back, as a limited intelligence cannot think of any other comebacks, especially truthful ones.

Why is it that you cannot reply to me directly @fredwiggy ? 😊

It's kind of weird that you have to reply through a third person, don't you think? 😊😉

    I’m more curious where you live that’s so flawless. A utopia, is it? No drunks, no dodgy headlines, no locals behaving badly… just everyone sipping herbal tea and filing their taxes early?

    Why do you have such a compulsion to post dispiriting content on this forum. That’s the question you should be asking.

I’m not worried about him. What bothers me is the lack of common sense, and the constant chasing of other members who are simply sharing things, which is what a forum is supposed to be about.

That kind of behavior makes it so very few people share anything anymore. And that is how a forum slowly becomes hostile: a few spineless individuals contribute nothing except games, attacks, and baiting.

And why should we believe him anyway? He creates his perfect little rants with AI, then calls other people bots with no shame at all.

My best guess is that he has some unresolved issues with authority or male role models, but that is his problem, not mine.

So if the mods want a forum like this, they will get it. I am not afraid of sharing, even when I know it provokes weak souls like him.

The funniest part is that he is trying to challenge someone who has travelled through sport since the age of five, worked and travelled worldwide until only a few years ago, and lived on four continents.

That takes a special kind of confidence.l

Now it's a lack of common sense about which you are concerned 😊

Thank you for your concern for me. But logically, if I didn't have any common sense, what good your ranting and raving concern about it? Just accept it 😊

I am sharing things. I help out when someone asks a tech question and I share my opinions. That you don't like my opinions, is your problem.

Have I made any negative comment about your 'latest view' thread? What stops you from posting? Nothing. Likely only your fragile ego. Nothing stops me, apart from not wanting to enter into a urination contest with narcissists who think they've done more than anyone else and think they know more than anyone else. Have many times have you referred to what you think is my age in a condescending manner? You don't even realise that you are doing it. You and your bird of a feather, dismiss other people's experiences as a matter of fact.

The main part of all this is not only the assumptions but the constant deflections when you point out exactly how he's been acting here for years, in all the personalities. There's nothing you can say, as a narcissist will always deflect and try to make you out the wrongdoer.

The thing he still doesn't get, is that this is an adult forum, with most members seeing exactly what he is, and he proves it every day.

Another point is that he started this with others with those other usernames, and by the time he was banned, he changed to yet another, which is when he started on me.

Very weak how you defeat him on such a minor argument, and he then resorts to attacking everything you say, and in my case, relaying information about my life here with my ex, to share with others who might have gone through the same things, as many did. Then he automatically takes the other side, dismissing things you said, and thinking it was you the culprit, with no evidence of any of it.

That's exactly how his type operates, thinking they can somehow trash you and have others believe what he says. His failure is that there are many people like myself , who have studied his disorder for decades, and can spot him very quickly, and point him out to others, so they don't fall for his deflection tactics.

He then resorts to calling you names, like little girl, underestimating what you really are, as this is always the go to for a coward online. I've experienced his type many times, and they're always the same. Childish insults are always the way they respond, as they haven't yet been able to enter the adult world in thinking.

I do think a lot of this is plain jealousy, as it's hard for him to accept we're just better humans.

The funny thing about this, is everyone here knows exactly what he is, and will soon ignore everything about him, and he will likely again change his alias, and come back, pulling the same ploys once again, until he's again warned or banned.

Tonight I'm eating Burek. I could never eat that in Pattaya, let alone Thailand.

Had to Google Burek, it looks a lot like Muburak which (being a Malaysian dish) is available in a fair few places in Pattaya but if you really wanted Burek then a quick search suggests it's available in a few places, e.g.

Aaah...so any word in the dictionary you might use, is not allowed to be used by anyone else, even if appropriate? You use it and then you own it? You really are a true narcissist. I don't mind, as I don't have to live with such an unhappy and unsettled creature.

Of course you didn't note days ago, when he suggested that we meet, that I declined due to him appearing to be a manic depressive. But if course, in your narcissistic mind, where everything is about you, you imagine it was about you. 😊

Do you really think I am going to read another rant?

You are still picking at my messages, spellcheck or no spellcheck. That is getting old.

The content is my own writing. I use AI to polish it, not to create the thoughts for me. But I can see why that is hard for you to accept, since you seem to use it mainly to produce long rants. And you who like honestly people, you know I'm being open about it, but you became obsessed again.

For someone who presents himself as so brilliant, you spend a strange amount of time worrying about me and my presence on this forum.

You have had comments about my wine, travels, hotels, farm, wife, mother, and more. At some point it stops looking like criticism and starts looking like obsession or jealousy.

Anyway, you have reached my limit for today. You know what to do.

I see a lot of very white Thai people these days. Are they also a problem for you?

What colour are you?

I was just being polite. Saying "I don't like White people" is the dumbest comment anyone could make on an international forum, and that's saying something based on your current offerings.

I don't think anyone is particularly interested in hearing about your skin-colour preferences.

It's the ones who fight tooth and nail to convince everyone otherwise...when it's plainly obvious to all and sundry.

If you accept what you are, you regain the ability to change and adapt. Otherwise you expect the world to change for you.

Wongamat, Jomtien, Naklua, Cosy, Pratamnuk, Na Jomtien, the Darkside, and so on--they're all part of Greater Pattaya. I think spouse and I liked Wongamat the best of the beachside Pattaya areas we lived at before decamping to the Darkside.

I noticed this pattern. It’s sort of pathetic, like it gets its rocks off trying to extend an argument. This covers it:

Common motives include:

  • Needing validation or attention

  • Feeling powerless in real life and regaining control online

  • Anger, resentment, or loneliness

  • Identity protection (“If you criticize my view, you’re criticizing me”)

  • Anxiety about uncertainty, leading to rigid certainty

  • A strong need to feel morally right or intellectually superior

There’s also a phenomenon called the “online disinhibition effect,” where people say things online they would never say face-to-face. The emotional distance changes behavior.

In some cases, compulsive arguing can overlap with personality traits such as:

  • Narcissistic traits (needing to dominate or always be right)

  • High trait aggression

  • Low emotional regulation

  • High neuroticism

  • “Dark triad” traits (especially trolling for amusement)

Exactly. I've been studying this type of behavior as I had problems with this type a few times, so I wanted to see how they worked. The only problem I had was being love bombed by my ex, falling for her charms, until I was here and she went back to her reality.

There is nothing you can say to convince them of the truth as that's their reality. We're the bad guys, and trying to get them to admit what they are is almost impossible. Even if they admit it to themselves and a doctor, they're very hard to impossible to get them change.

I listened to, and read, many leading psychologists on this disorder, especially Dr. Les Carter from Waco, Texas, after my divorce here. I listened to his videos nightly for a long time, which are very interesting and make it easier to not fall victim to them any longer, as the covert is the tricky one.

You, and everyone else here, can easily see what he's all about, as he made the mistake of targeting not only me, who busted him right off, but many others here who were slick enough to figure him out quick also.

One thing you need to worry about -- no matter where you live in the world -- is being trapped in an infinite loop where every day repeats itself endlessly.
