haybilly Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Hey Haybilly! easy enough for you to cast a vote for Ulysses, and he could really use your support. Just have a look at the poll at the top of this page, and make a click in the box beside Ulysses name. If you make a mistake and accidentally vote for one the unacceptable candidates, you can click 'delete my vote', and the go ahead and vote Ulysses. This is good advice for everyone who have so far voted for the wrong candidate and not for UG. Is this only visible on a PC, or the dedicated TV app? I generally use neither and rely on my 'Phablet' (ugh! Horrible word) and Tapatalk app- here I can find no poll .Better crank up the PC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uptheos Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 And meanwhile, Nancyl is QUIETLY taking a healthy lead. Despite some despicable posts earlier in the evening This should be a bit of fun, but I guess when the 'lobby shamelessly' post went up we should have realised otherwise. I've given her my vote hope it helps towards a hollow victory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haybilly Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 That's why I would like to go for UG, but it seems I'm just to dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrtoad Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 I guess if you are going to get dirty here, you need to go all the way, so the mods will remove it and most people will never see it. Sorry to see feelings getting hurt, this is a good platform for some harmless jests. Yes, agreed. Although Nancy L's posts were certainly not jests. Was very low posting to be honest, in what is actually been more of a joke competition than anything. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post David48 Posted December 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2014 And meanwhile, Nancyl is QUIETLY taking a healthy lead. Despite some despicable posts earlier in the evening Maybe she felt her image was too squeaky clean? That might not win one votes on Thai Visa. UG, if you had read them, you wouldn't be making those comments now. I have respect for you ... I had respect for NancyL ... but not any more. Even if she was (supposition) pissed @ 2am Thai Time, it's no excuse to slag me or my Family in the way she did. Some of the members even posted asking her to directly apologise privately and publicly. Had some of the people who have voted for her, read those posts ... and there was more then one, they would be 'unvoting' her. They wouldn't vote for me ... the Chiang Mai crowd don't know me. Maybe they may have voted for you ... who knows. Suffice to say, that's one image tarnished for some time to come. But, since those comments were directed to me and my Family and no-one else, let's draw a line in the sand on the matter and move forward. I don't hold a grudge, but I have a long memory. What's been said, has been said ... and now hidden. Let's return to some campaigning, some banter and a bit of fun. OH ... and let's not forget ... vote for David48 ... . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokie36 Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 I just removed some (actually a bunch of) inappropriate accusatory posts and replies. Seems the election campaign just got dirty and some comments are way out of line. Thanks to the election overseers.....the candidates need to remember....don't get caught out with your dirty tricks and subterfuge! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post NancyL Posted December 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) Well, OK I'd had a long day and a few red wines. I think David's twins are cute. I just don't think it's a good idea for him to be showing them to the entire world on a public forum where someone could piece together details about where he (and they live). They can't give their informed consent to be shown to the entire world and these posts stay on the internet for a long time. That part of my post I think is still valid and deserves to be mentioned. Some of the other language I used to describe David's actions was out-of-line and for that I apologize. At no time did I say anything inappropriate about the twins. They're adorable.

Popular Post mrtoad Posted December 22, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted December 22, 2014 (edited) Give it a rest about informed consent, it's his bloody children. I didn't realise we were in a healthcare ethics forum. We are not talking about taking pictures of kids at an orphanage or a school and then positing without permission.

As you state in your vid your major expense is booze:burp: You're misquoting me AFT. I said food and beverage is our major expense but it would be less if we didn't drink beer and wine. My point was the interviewer was wrong to start asking by about housing expense -- at 12,000 baht/month (at that time) it's less than the grocery and restaurant bill and would be even if we didn't drink alcohol.
