I never tried to get anyone fired from his job and that lie had nothing to do with my being blackmailed on here, not surprised you do not want to discuss it. What is the other side to blackmail then? You are referring to a groundless rumor I think that I had something to do with long gun getting the push when he returned here to teach? knew absolutely nothing about that and he denied I had anything to do with it. I did fall out with him but that was after he had returned to the UK and I do not think he would have talked to me at songkran in Birmingham in 2003 if I had anything to do with him leaving Thailand. You are trying to muddy the waters and pretending you don't remember, well you could try asking Belgian Boy or stick of course, their memory might be a bit better. When Himitsu. who collaborated with the Frenchman in the blackmail eventually left the forum you said you were sorry to see him go, you probably forgot that as well! BTW if you have any evidence I ever tried to get anyone fired I would love to see it. I have a stack of evidence I was blackmailed via nanaplaza.com for 40k baht, want to swap?

Coss Maybe you should have paid more attention in the past, I still have all the pm's on here from the blackmailer himitsu and the French 'club' owner (brothel) as well as K Sanuks kind permission for me to post an apology to the brothel owner for negative posts about the dump. Would you like me to post them all to jog your memory? I also found out the location of the Thai woman who collected the 40k baht, want to know that as well? The reasons for the decline of the board are more than one, blackmailing posters was just one. Mad did not come into it, criminality did however.

Yet a board like TV that many regard as over moderated survived and flourished and is now the most valuable Thai forum in an era where they have been subjected to the same competition from social media. Allowing an advertiser to extort posters is not good moderation. Also, the board owner who knew all about what had gone on, eventually at least, expressed his regret when the poster involved in blackmail said he was leaving. When I say blackmail that was the opinion of the Police at the Beaumont Leys Station Leics UK who examined all the documents. Not surprising this board died when several other major mistakes were made, including losing the Nanaplaza name. The payment membership section was a non starter with no input and not enough work or imagination put into developing the site. It could have been great but it turned out not to be and that is down to the people who ran it, nobody and nothing else. Even that mad house teak door has done better than here, so if this is an example of how to do things I have to disagree. Just to add the only people here that were any help over this incredibly stressful period were Stick who I will always to grateful to and Belgian Boy who urged me not to pay up. I did so in the end as the Mrs had been threatened, and although she knew nothing about it had told me she had been followed off the bus and a bloke had gone around her condo block asking for her room, strange co incidence if it was.

Could have been the Thai visa before Thai visa as it was the first Thai board as sanuk fun in Thailand. Poorly run and moderated is the reason it died, blaming social media is just an excuse. Being involved in advertisers extorting posters and attempting to did not help of course, that sort of thing does tend to put people off!

Not much of a scarifice for some if no family, working in a job you don't like, wife or GF in thailand and just counting the days to going back. I'm pretty sure I could live on the same amount over there that I do here, about $1000 a month. The only big extras would be medical costs, but then I could always come home for anything major. I think it's true that you don't miss what you never had, so big houses, big cars, big bank balance and big lifestyle would be things I would not have to do without. I wonder if the more you have and the more expensive the lifestyle maybe the more insecure people are? Nobody knows how long there will be around for so it's a bit of a gamble when to clear off. I'd hate to save until 65 and being well heeled at last retire to thailand only to drop dead three months later with a big bank balance.

Apologies mr Red, not used to how it all works, taken your name out now.

Well it looks as if nobody agrees with your views and opinions. I doubt if anyone is pretending to be poorly educated and hard up just to make friends, a strange thing to think. Good job you don't aim to be mr popular isn't it? From reading some of your back posts you don't come across as a very happy person, for all your cash.

I doubt there are more than a handfull of expats living in LOS on the vast amount you aspire to. This may surprise you but life does not have to suck living on small amounts, many muti millionares were miserable sons of bitches and lottery winninings often bring little real, lasting joy into peoples lives. Do you really need so much? of course not, but you want that much for whatever reason, maybe you would just feel insecure without your pockets stuffed full of cash? The consensus seems to be $10.000 is a great deal more than anyone really needs to live in LOS. I see you don't list what you would spend it on, $1000 for a ST maybe? why not if you can afford it!

There is some really interesting stuff on this site but this thread is just a joke surely? $10.000 a month?if you are monty burns or randolph hurst, but hey most of us are homer simpsons. Not difficult to 'waste' that much in a month, any fool can throw cash around and there are always plenty of thais to help the rich falang spend it. For myself I live on the about $1000 in the west, less in fact. Good job we don't all aspire to your extravegant ways. mr Short time is right I think, maybe you light your cigars with $100 bills?
