I don't know who that would be. Hardly any of us speak fluent Portuguese. What are we supposed to do, grunt and point?

Okay, I change my vote to Boytoy!

It's true that the definition of success can vary. It's all relative to what you are looking for. Are you content to let one person post most of the threads in the Lounge and Porn section? I like a lot of those posts, but keeping content fresh should not be the responsibility of one man. Variety is the spice of life. Why not make an effort to get other points of view? Women involved? (Nah!) I have made a lot of positive comments. This thread was about change and how we could bring more people here.

We both know that honesty is not your strong suite.

So you are able to make rude comments like that without a drink? That's just you?

3 weeks to go. I can imagine the excitement/anxiety!

My guess is that we would spend a couple of thousand dollars on lodging and food. Then entertainment for two. Since I live in a winter tourist destination, i could rent my house out for what I need to spend in Bangkok, and pocket my income...for a few months!

Once again one wonders if you are back on the sauce.

I have also noticed an increase in participation. If we knew what motivated that, we could learn from it. One person dominating a forum doesn't encourage others to join in, but if there is only one person wanting to participate, well, he should. As far as success goes, the site has longevity, which is a form of success.

Well, I cared enough to give my opinion. If the bulk of the members don't care enough to even cast an opinion in a poll, you don't have much loyalty to your site. There is no getting around the fact that few people participate in the forums. They are unsuccessful by any definition.

What does it cost to live in Bangkok full-time? I have little idea. A nice apartment with A/C in a good location, near mass transit would be the highest expense, I imagine. And then?

The sad reality is that not only is the site not getting reviews, only 12 of our 30,000 members have bothered to vote in this poll. I submit that we have 12 dedicated users. The site needs to consider how to expand that number. Name change may help, but someone who knows what makes sites succeed needs to consider a revamp that will ensure a long life for Boytoy. It really doesn't matter the name of a site with 12 dedicated participants. Unsuccessful would be the de facto name.

The island hopping in Phuket is wonderful.

In 14 trips to Thailand, I also have never had to show ID to get into a place.

Badboy: I find BKK to be an amazingly cheap city for food, massages and entertainment...Boys included.... Lucky: Exactly my feeling.

Oz is a great guy to see in Thailand. He knows so much about the place, and is just good company. I've seen him twice over there and enjoyed both visits.

In my recent visit, I let a garato talk me into a massage. He first pulled my sore left leg back as far as he could. I screamed in pain. So he did the same thing to the other leg. Again, I screamed in pain. He didn't seem to get it. He started tomahawk chopping on my legs --really hard. So I pulled myself up, told him we were done, and paid him in full*. There was clearly going to be no massage, and I didn't hire him for sex because I wasn't that attracted. For me, the assigned masseurs at the saunas are not particularly attractive, thus that assignment. I don't want a sexual massage with someone I am not attracted to. *Even so, he was still pissed that I didn't like his "massage."

LOL

Two of the escorts I hired last week mentioned their fear of gangs and guns.

Don't you hate it when trash TV makes the headlines? Well, neither do I. I checked to see if this show had been mentioned here, but no signs of it came up. It's The Bromans on ITV2, whatever channel that is. Skimpy outfits and outright male nudity .https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/4493090/itv2-bromans-television-ally-ross/ If you have a chance to see it, let us know!

Then I should be thankful that my flights were all on time without problems. I hope you have a great time tomcal.

We have not heard from RockHard this year. I hate to think that he has softened, or that some misery has befallen him. In my mind, he has made some good contributions here, and also some very funny ones. It would be nice to see him get back n the mix.

This past couple of weeks I have tried to share stories from my Rio trip, so I had several posts. Then, this morning, I got a letter from Boytoy wondering why I don't participate any more. This mistake on the part of Boytoy deserves a personal apology. I suggest that I be allowed to pick an escort of my choice who, at Boytoy's expense, would come to my house and deliver this apology, all the while comforting me while we are both nude. That sounds fair to me!

So you cannot self-suck?

Sometimes things are said with mirth!
