It's true hehe; I'm unlikely going to post much here or on GT in the future as I have a possible summer job (well our summer here anyway) lined up. I've been approached to do content writing for various blogs/websites about my experiences in Thailand and Southeast Asia. I'll be a hired hand and my employers would suggest/make appropriate product placements and advertising in the content because that's what they're hiring me for, in addition to raising their site viewership. The money won't be much but my travels will be sponsored. Of course I'd have to add in an adventure and a fictional romance or two to spice things up. Nobody wants to read staid travel reports. I would get to travel all the time but then there's the writing and creative side of it to think of.
You're familiar with the concept, aren't you? I'm still mulling over it as like a447, I always believe in telling the truth.
Ciao.

This is the second time now you have announced that and should I remind you when you also had enough...when you were simply bobsaigon...there will be no bobsaigon3.
It's a thankless job being owner or moderator...more appropriately.
In this discussion, I am being criticized for banning someone...and criticized for not banning someone...and being called a hypocrite, for doing either.
Someone can call me a liar, despite the heaps and heaps of pages and posts that suggest a447 is the fellow hurling abuse and the fellow on the wrong side of the truth.
Back in the good old days I would take the time to find the links to prove my points....now I'll just push a button and achieve the same result.
We are having this discussion because we have certain members who think they can use their posting or membership history to force me to get rid of other members.
If it wasn't for this sglad discussion, we'd be talking about frequent latintopxxx and manforallseasons...three members that I've been asked to ban by some of these members and any new member that may have poked his head in and was instantly accused of being beachlover or kommentariat.
We've come several years now without more than a few being banned and very little moderation.
You demand that I start banning trouble makers...well, now I have.
This is a temporary ban, once I give my share of the Board away...the new ownership is free to ban members or not ban members...it won't be my sillyness to manage anymore.

You stopped posting 5 years ago, and now you are whining that this board isn't up to your standards. Do you think we are circus monkeys, providing performance here for your amusement?
You stopped posting, you do not contribute anything to this board, thus you have given away all rights to criticize us, members who chose to post.
You seem to think we owe you something, and we should do better job at keeping you entertained?
We have failed you lol
Bradley, you created several fictional characters, you are cdnmatt, you are Surfcrest, you used to be Beachlover. These are your leading roles, no doubt you have many more, lesser characters.
Now that your bullshit stories caught up with you, it's no longer fun, it's understandable.
But I think the real reason is that you are bored with these characters, and it shows. You put almost no effort in developing your characters, no longer do you create long story arcs, fairly well written episodes in lives of your creations. You are getting old, and it's no fun for you, not as much as it used to be.
So instead of long, elaborate, very believable tales that you came up with from 2009 to 2012 or so, you go for the shock value. You 'went blind' (a term a blind person would never use btw, they'd phrase it as losing sight), then exposing yourself as overstayer without even as much as passport.
You know, of course, how ludicrous these latest tales are, but you are tired of your roles, so you put almost no effort in them.
And when you became a laughing stock you walk away.
But stop and think for a moment the damage you have caused to your own board! Non of us here have any credibility left, after you have poisoned the well so throughly!
I hope Sawadtee will attract new, real people, and become something more than your demented, sick playground.
So good bye, Bradley!

Moses, do you undrstand that Brad The Impala is Surfcrest?
Brother, tell me that you know that!
I'm not expecting you to know every character he's created, but this is pretty basic.
Tell me you know this, Administrator!
So just to make clear how easy it is to post from different continents, here I am posting from London, even tho I'm in Pattaya.
If you insist on being blind, Moses, I can't convince you otherwise!
Look at the IP of this post (UK VPN), and look at the IP numbers I've posted all week from!
