ChrisP Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Hi all.. For several reasons I have decided to step down as a Moderator on ThaiVisa. I'm glad I started the Gay In Thailand Forum, but I need to let go now... Best wishes to all and thanks for all the support.! Chris P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptuan Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Thanks for your valuable and level-headed assistance to this forum. You were often the only voice of reason on threads gone amok. You often contributed personal insights that were right on the mark. Good luck. Appreciatively, TT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeaceBlondie Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Well, okay, over our protests, we'll let you step down, but please don't step outside. Stick around and help us, as a poster. Thanks for all your hard work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 heh heh, looks like admin are refusing your resignation, you are still listed as a super mod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUMPSTER Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 I've had a few run ins with the mods but have always found you fair and balanced, unlike some of the straights. Us gay guys always have a bit more class So I take it the position's up for grabs? No seriously, i'm too busy, I can't do it. dukkha always struck me as a mod in the making. Now there's a fair and balanced guy and there aren't too many of us on here ChrisP, Good luck with your future plans.......so why are you leaving?

dukkha Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Dumpster, I am overwhelmed and thank you for your kind words...however, I feel I do not really have what it takes and that is by no means a claim of false modesty...whoever takes it on has my full support as long as they are able to perform the duties moderately and intelligently..

jdinasia Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 actually I would second Dukkha for the slot .... he seems to not think that the bashing of Thai gay guys that used to go on is apporopriate .... and isn't as direct in slapping the perps down as I was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbk Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Chrisp will be sorely missed by all of us. He was always a welcome addition of kindness and fairness. I'm with PB, stick around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisP Posted August 5, 2006 Author Share Posted August 5, 2006 Hi all.. Many thanks for all your support and kind words..! I've enjoyed it - even thru the occaisional wrangling.. and I do think TVisa has the most thoughtful and insightful group of members on Gay Thailand that I've seen on the Web.... I'm proud to have Moderated you all...! You'll probably hear from me again... somewhere someday... ChrisP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ijustwannateach Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 PS. FYI, Chris, I tried to send you a PM but got an error message saying that either your mailbox was full or you have disabled your messenger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukkha Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 And IJWT..your moderating skills, is there moderation young man?? Dukkha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ijustwannateach Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I like to think I'm moderate, but often some folks think I'm immoderate... however, honestly, I think I'm way too outspoken to be a good moderator on a forum like this. I would hate to sacrifice any of my outspokenness in the name of being fair and balanced among various parties in a controversy. And if I became a mod I might have to read the Thailand Motoring Forum, or something like that, and my brain might explode.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Chris, very sorry to hear your going and hope the best for you. You will be missed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papa_Lazarou Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 I too am disappointed by Chris' departure. Nevertheless, I too would second the endorsement for 'I just want to teach' to be appointed as a Moderator. I read his entire "Where's it all going" topic and he seems a young man who is not only eloquent and thoughful, but sensitive as well. "I just want to teach" reminds me of the nice boy from the Simpsons, Milhouse Van Houten. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
