Popular Post simon43 Posted December 10, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 10, 2013 That took some time I guess I must be one of the longest members on Thaivisa - member number 174, joining in January 2003. Whilst some members reach the dizzy heights of ten's of thousands of posts within a short space of time, I've plodded on slowly with the occasional post, sometimes a flurry of posts on a topical or controversial subject. I post less nowadays - to be honest, I find an increasing number of comments by posters to be either banal or rude, either contributing little or nothing to the thread, or demonstrating to all that the poster failed to complete primary education. Some posters complain about the mods and censorship etc. I've never had an issue with this, but no doubt I would fall foul of the mods if I were to follow the immature antics of some other posters. George - you need to award long-service medals Simon 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JLCrab Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 How to get to 5000 Posts: I think I'll start a language business. Could I get a work permit for my language business? Could I work for more than one hotel at a time with a language business? Would I need a school registration for a language business? Maybe I won't start a language business -- That's 5 posts right there -- just kidding and I still have a copy of the Terry Miller 'Music of the Lao' book.

simon43 Posted December 10, 2013 Author Share Posted December 10, 2013 That's 5 posts right there -- just kidding and I still have a copy of the Terry Miller 'Music of the Lao' book. Never had time to get the language business off the ground - too busy with building hotels, teaching overseas and of course - playing the khaen!
