A couple of troll posts have been removed

Gradually reading through this thread - this made me LOL !

 

Perhaps it was genuine (and would still be extremely funny in context of the OP), but I prefer to think it was just a great comment .

Too many <deleted> on the forum. All keyboard warriors, just wonder if some one would say it to your face,I doubt it. Hide in anonymity.

Thank you so much we feel,the same way, but should genuine intelligent posters walk away, to follow up on my original post, I am embarrassed that fellow expats have to ask .... What's the cheapest way to do this ? What's a cheap hotel in area B, what's the cost of a cheap bus from a-b, why are the baht buses so expensive. For the love of god or whoever why emigrate to a country when you have to ask these questions ..... The posters are obviously in deep financial shit .... Why bloody bother  to stay here ? 

Err?? Maybe because in comparison to their native countries. It is cheaper?

Another reason that I've seen is where posters go completely off tangent in a thread and start to ramble on about every thing else under the sun. When they are reminded, politely, that they are off topic they become aggressive and start to have all manner of tantrums, for example:

Does the anonymity of the Internet make its users more inclined to be rude to other posters?

I would say no. But what do you bunch of snivelling – old fat beer guzzling  bald headed  farts reckon? .......................

Not unless it's a Jekyll & Hyde thing.....

 

Some people are just seem happiest while acting like total sh*tz....It seems to be ingrained in their being.....The internet would embolden that person but not change them into that person.....It was there before they ever partook in the internet....

 

They were troubled before....

 the simple answer is 90% of  foriegners you will meet ( in person) here, and 95% on this site are  D'heads.

 

They like to think they are the international travelling man of mystery and everybody should be in awe of them.

They divide their time between bashing eveything Thai, their own countrymen, and generally anyone else they feel jealous of.

Strangely enough, the exception is the language forum, where they suddenly become more Thai than Thai,

 forgetting everything they previously bashed, as this makes  them the all knowledgeable guru who has embraced the culture and conquered all. 

But even the language threads get derailed as one D'head (who cant even read Thai) will post Thai words in English and argue with everyone on how its spoken.

wxankers!

This is pure utter rubbish, I have met a few Thaivisa posters, and am also in touch with many on PMs, and not one of them is as you describe. I have come across a few foreigners as you describe, ie the shirtless morons in Pattaya, but even they are in a minority.

I will slag off the Thai behaviour on the roads, but the statistics back me up.

This is a forum to give and read opinions, and like any other forum, you have the right to agree or disagree, it also has it's share of undesirables, but 95%??????????

Dipstick that username is bound to get you noticed.

Lighten up man TV is a good place for posters to let off steam sometimes.

My life would be boring  if not for winding up some posters on here.

Yes i am a sarcastic/ grumpy old bugger, getting fat, not bald.

Remember to up the dose of your meds, that should help you feel better.

Yeah,OK, 95% is a bit of a stretch. 

Mr Heinekin might have been whispering in my ear when i posted that.

You are right, It does pay to remain positive though.

Usually i believe the good outnumber the bad.

I guess the nature of the forums being anonymous, is rather like letting others read the thoughts that you normally would hold back when in person.

I do admit i do not hide my disgust for the attitudes and certain personality profiles of some foriegners here as they remind me to much of a few !#$/s that have caused  me a lot of grief here.
