Popular Post Wavefloater Posted June 4, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted June 4, 2013 Welcome and good luck. I hope you have a thick skin because there are a lot of cantankerous members here. Nastiness abounds at TVF. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Upnotover Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Welcome, I have certainly enhanced my own knowledge here, although perhaps more so about the nature of people than Thailand. But nevertheless there are a lot of people here ready to offer good advice when needed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hookedondhamma Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Welcome! There's lot of interesting material here. If you want to really get the most of it don't take the internet with you when you turn off the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim armstrong Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 Welcome. As other posters say you will need a thick skin. But you will also have some great laughs. If you are in the wilds of Isaan trying to farm something the farming forum is very, very useful, as indeed is the health forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muythai2013 Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 We are taught in Muay Thai to counter instantly after every strike, and to never back up with throwing a jab to stop an attack. This has served me just as well on Thai visa as it has in The ring, Keep your guard up here you will be on the defensive often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDGRUEN Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 In my personal experience, being here two years on TVF has been an education - a very useful one. I hate to think the messes I could have gotten myself into had I jumped the gun and went off to live in Thailand - without first - spending time here. Of course - all the basics - such as immigration/visas, renting a place to live, girlfriend cautions are essential - but there is so much more... sample topics that you think would never be something you'd need to know about .... My advice however - just don't be naive ... the piranhas posting here on the Forum just love new meat... verbal bloodbaths are common ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your posts are sensible then there is no meat to be had.....also its a lot less intimidating for a new member now than years ago....especially on some of the Local Forums. Just my experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
