pagallim Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 My opinion: if you can't give link or text, don't bother with posts like this. Agreed. The Times/Sunday Times whilst being an excellent online resource, is a subscription only website. To be frank, if a news related item is being published in their Travel section, then it's certainly not news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valentine Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Seems to be a worldwide trend that people are quick to complain but seldom praise. There must be lots of good stories about Phuket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumpyoldman Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I understand I am not suppose to comment on moderating, but why was the article jocko posted removed? Anyway, it was about the tourist deaths in Thailand, and really, not surprising considering yahoos who have only ridden a bicycle can rent a motorbike here and get out into what are really dangerous driving conditions.

Tywais Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Posting a 2 line summary of the article would be no copyright infringement. It is when it's a subscription service. For example, AFP does not allow quoting anything unless you are a paid subscriber. So, enough commenting on moderation decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissChris Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 There must be lots of good stories about Phuket. Yep! A colleague of mine just returned from his first visit. Stayed in Patong (gasp!). He came back tanned, fit, happy & can't wait to go again. We girls bailed him up first & gave him all the warnings. He wasn't going to risk the hard time we gave the last bloke who returned & confessed to not using a condom with a bar girl... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
