The_Munchmaster Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 ThaiQuiz would seem to be a more appropriate name for the board these days coz there is next to nothing about Thailand being discussed on the board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unit731 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 OK. So I am responding to myself. This board is made up of very diverse people. Some live in Thailand. Those have first hand knowledge of the workings and life of Thailand. Then we have the occaisional visitor/tourist. Out possibly to catch some snatch. And to brag about it or ask questions about it. Then we have the business travellers who visit Thailand on business. Then some who visit LOS as a break from some SE Asia or Middle Asia job. Then we have the ex-cons running away from doing time. Then we have the one time visitor to Thailand who has instantaneously become an expert on - all things Thailand. Then we have just common neanderthal dregs of society who have nothing to do but to complain about everything. Then we have the . . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Yet when I was posting news updates on the red shirt fiasco in April and May, I got slagged off for posting TOO MUCH THAI news. It was suggested I put everything in one horrendously long thread that people could ignore. Go figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave32 Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 I think it should be renamed thus: Old, grumpy, geriatric expats with a chip on their collective shoulders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous God Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 We'll I like the quiz's but have complained not enough Thai content, easy enough to find Thai photo's. Agree with you Munch. The Thai news section became so borish I stopped posting most times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I for one do tend to like your play by play of the news as it keeps me from having to dig through the BKP website. Even if all you are doing is reposting then news. But I will also tell you you went way overboard with the red shirt thing. You even reposted your self a few times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Munchmaster Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Actually ThaiQuiz isn't really appropriate however ThaiGame+Quiz would be, considering Nong Noi is the dominant thread on the Board these days. NG, I'm not specifically talking about a lack of Thai news but a lack of Thai anything! At one point yesterday I looked through 5 pages of that days posts and there was only two threads that had anything to do with Thailand (excluding Waerth’s talent show thread). One was about the status of the NEP ground floor and the other about Document Cerification at a Thai bank. Lots of posts though about Nong Noi, the Continuous Picture Quiz, the Fed raiding an Amish dairy, Arizona immigration, lost luggage and some old woman in Tokyo who’s gone missing! I wonder what anyone new to the Board would think logging on for the first time in anticipation of all things Thai to find that there were all things other than Thai?! Anyway if this is the direction the Board is heading in then so be it, however I just felt like having a gripe about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
