"I think that this is the most unpleasant thread that I've ever read on any of the Gay Thailand forums.

There have been more incendiary threads, there have been worse insults, language and abuse, but for sheer malevolence to contributors, taking it's tone from the title, this one surely wins the award."

Malevolent it certainly is. Smiles destroys a thread and throws shit at both Matt and Christian. He gets a tiny rebuke. That should have been that, but no. He bitches like hell and the pack smell some free raw meat and so dive in to gorge. I call it free because they all know that the chances of Moses chucking them out are so small as to be almost non existence. This is not because of their fabulous contribution to the board which is largely self indulgent but because unlike both GB and GT the owners (Neal, Surfcrest and now Moses) here have banned members as an absolutely last resort and clearly this is a policy that is continuing. And if any one is in any doubt about not caring whether they can post or not they just need to take a look at Frequent and the rage he still feels after serving a months suspension when all his little comments went unpublished.

Is this forum "swirling the drain" ?

Here's a suggestion for a statistical exercise Moses.

Now that you've dismissed some (un-named) regular posters as "useless" and/or "harmful" - why don't you look at the threads these maligned individuals have created or substantially contributed to and see how many views those threads have attracted and how many "likes" the useless and harmful posters have attracted.

You might be surprised to find that those you deem useless and harmful are actually the ones who are generating those positive statistics you are boasting of.

Alternatively you may come to a different conclusion but either way that little exercise might be a better use of your time than (seemingly) spending it deliberately thinking up new ways of pissing off an increasing number of people every day?

You're missing the point of the Internet. Web site owners have no interest in quality, only quantity (of visitors)

In that case they'd be overlooking the fact that something must attract those visitors to visit the website and (even more significantly) to return or register.

Matt. "Done nothing wrong" Do you mean apart from destroying every single thread you get involved in due to your childish nonsense that no one believes?

Looked in the mirror recently?

I'll take partial blame, but not full blame. Lots of times it's just old grumpy men going off the rails simply for the sake of bitching and complaining. I remember one thread I simply confirmed it was indeed cold in Thailand, nothing more, and it devolved into a 3 page bitch fest about me.

And sorry if you don't like it, but everything I've posted is indeed true. I'm 36, Canadian, software developer, not rich, not poor, have a BF, am blind, etc.

Matt. For example your absurd post on the arrival card thread elicits the expected response. It came from Frequent but could just have easily come from anyone. No doubt you'll go back and argue with him and others will join the fray. So don't tell me you've done nothing wrong. You do nothing but.

Mirror mirror on the wall who's the biggest troll of all?

Since you're the one looking in the mirror arsenal I think we all know the answer to that question
