A long time lurker before posting, I also enjoyed the banter and the hilarious cruel wit at times. Whether it was paticularly funny or just resonated with my own sense of humor, I'm not sure, but the appealing edge that was a mainstay of the site has wavered at times recently. I do however feel there is a slight resurgence in crusty old cynical torment afoot. Let the games begin!!!

Banter? Ill give you old-style banter. Circa 2003----So many threads these days are being derailed by infighting among posters. Not the usual banter.
Fuck off all of you--ya bunch a TOSSERS--!!! and that includes you too, Violet!!

Fair enough point, she was put through the wringer, but that was possibly due to her support for a certain psychopathic "therapist" who preyed on young students and used stun-guns on them.Pol Pothead wrote:And if you go back x many years, you will find similar opinions expressed by old time crusty posters about the likes of Violet and such who were once annoying, know-nothing newbies to them. The quality and quantity of posts in the forum oscillates. It always has.Lucky Lucan wrote: You managed to completely miss the point. The forum used to be a lot more raw, now it's full of Facebook style inanities.
Personally I think it's ridiculous to judge anyone on how long they've been in a certain place, for all we know they could have spent the previous decade living in Port Moresby , the DRC, or God forbid, Slough..
I was talking about the attitude on the forum in general and not anyone in particular. In many ways the forum has improved, it used to be a hot-bed of misogyny and general abuse, but then it's sort of lame when we have ended up with a situation where we have multiple threads about donuts or Burger King.

For the sake of accuracy, I was put through the wringer for what was perceived to be support for, .... But what it was was wanting the full story to be aired, not one that suited a few.
Close observers will notice that is still my style, I've just learned a bit about forums and those who post on them since then.
Vlad made a comment on another thread I started that those who annoy me become persona non grata. Not true, I just do not respond to every attack on me and no longer feel driven to have people hear me, understand me or think like me, and I do not respond to baiting (very much). I grew up.

All internet forums eventually become ThaiVisa, it's a physical law like gravity, resistance is futile.
The only way to slow it down is to go Pol Pot and start culling users by the truck load.
I'm surprised we haven't seen any alternative forums pop up yet that appeal to different demographics. In Thailand you've got Teak Door for the retirees, ThaiVisa for the twats, Ajarn for younger expats / teachers and Stickman for the pant sniffers.
