It's possible, but life goes on. I was waiting to see what you would post. I think you are going to have a comment on every post but I don't think you will offer any scam experiences for others to be aware of.

These are some of the Scams I experienced. Patpong. I entered a 2nd floor bar after being told my drink would cost 200 Baht. When I sat down I ordered my drink and watched the nude ladyboy walk on the raised counter-top that could have been a bar. My beer came and I gave the money for the drink. The lady came back and I found my change was in coins and the coins were glued to the plate! When I tried to pry them up, she yelped in surprise and ran away with the tray. A lady came up and put a bill in my cup. I told her I paid for the drink and she said it was for the show. I left it there and soon they were stuffing another bill in my cup. I decided it was time to go so counted the total and put the cash in the cup and handed it to the passing waitress and made my way out. Guys at the door were blocking my exit and I turned to see a waitress waiving another receipt for me. I puffed out my chest and stood tall as I pushed my way out the door. I heard them talking but all I could understand was one of them saying Army! Army!. For some reason people in Thailand think I am either in the Army or on the Police force. Silom. I stopped at a guy selling magic items. It was my last night in Thailand and I thought the rings and the hidden dice trick would be a good gift for my nephews. The guy demonstrated the tricks and just through our chitchat I told him it was a gift for my nephews. He gushed that I had a good heart and said he would wrap them up nicely for me. When I got home and unwrapped them, you guessed it. Empty boxes. DJ Station. One incident with a guy trying to pick my pocket. Another incident. Met a guy at DJ. We went to my condo and he stole My old laptop I only use for travel to Thailand and a pair of my new Nike's. Pattaya: Baht bus demanding 200 baht for the same ride that other Thai passengers paid 10 baht. Often when their is a lady sitting next to the baht bus driver, they often try to keep my change. When I don't pull my open hand back, the driver will often indicate to them to give me my change. Met a guy on romeo. Spend many days with him. Once I let my guard down, he stole around 6000 baht out of my wallet. It may have been more. I would have to look at my post on sawatdee network to get the exact amount. Phuket. Was in boat bar when a woman tried to pick my pocket. It got so bad that when I went outside, she seemed to follow me and tried to pick my pocket again. I had to tell her. "Please stop trying to pick my pocket!" Airport. Once I got in a taxi that had a rigged meter. The other scams came when the driver didn't want to turn on the meter and lied saying no meter for airport taxi, or holiday, no meter today. I know I have run into more scams than this. Some were too insignificant to mention and others have slipped my mind......

No, not this board.

Just a side note... in Saudi Arabia when you speak of pigs it has to be in a derogatory way. You just can't say "I saw a pig," you would have to say something like "I saw a dirty pig!" I hope we don't have to justify statements made to us, by others, in our reports. I'd hate to see reports that are written as if they were written by a Philadelphia lawyer.

I'm glad your not arguing about the facts of your post. Years ago I posted about a frozen beer in a bar, not thinking much about it. When I came back to the thread I found a debate in full swing. I was even called a liar. The board owner attached me and then locked the thread and sent me a pm warning not to comment further..... I appreciate your posts where you allow us a glimpse into moments of your life and I hope you continue to share as you have in this thread.

I'll share when I get home. I hate posting from NY phone and it's error correction that seems to screw up my posts.

I'm sure enough people had met a busboy at the pinnacle who would offer sex at a ridicously high rate hoping to snag a sucker haha. If that failed he would offer taxi service from a friend. The taxi looked nice from the outside but was a wreck inside and the cost was more than the norm..... Yeah, he got me on that one lol

What about hotel staff that try to pick up customers? Are they rude? (Pinnacle Hotel). What about Thai guys trying to pick up foreigners at the weekend market? Are they bad people? What about other Asian guys here on holiday coming on to travelers on walking street in pattaya? Oh, and what about Thai guys and women trying to pick up guys while in the baht bus? I think we just need to be proud that we are in the company of guys that others desire.

Just because something has not happened to you or I does not make it ridiculous. Just take the warning and file it away for future reference should you need it. I was lucky to chat with a Thai guy on yahoo messenger before I came to thailand. He warned me about the guys telling me they loved me, about the taxi cheats. About the bar cheats along with other ripoffs. I didn't experience all of them on my first few trips but I did end up experiencing them. I had to smile about the phone scam. I didn't know it was a scam and I remember a guy leaving his phone on the edge of the bed and pulling me to him. I was aware of the phone and stopped to move it to the nightstand and plug it into my charger. That's when he told me phone no good. I didn't give it a second thought. I'll never be upset by too much information.

In the real world there is hotel staff having sex with resident customers. It happens on cruise ships, in prisons and in hospitals. Yes, people are having sex and a lot of it. While in Thailand I have been propositioned by hotel staff while staying there. I have also crossed paths with hotel staff who took off like a road runner once they learned I was still a resident at their hotel. Of the 2 guys I have had sex with at their hotels, I think we both knew the risk they were taking. The second guy was concerned and mentioned that there were cameras in the halls so he would have to be very careful. Away from the hotel we went out a few times to local restaurants and to Silom but I began to find it difficult to bring guys back to my room without hurting his feelings. His constant calls and notes slipped under my door was a bit of a worry for me. He knew I was changing hotels and I was breathing a bit easier once the move was made. Now when I would come into the hotel the staff would stop me to give me a note left by him and I could not answer my phone in the room out of the fear that it would be him. It is because of him that I won't have sex with hotel staff anymore. When I stayed at the Regent in Silom. There was a very good looking guy at the front desk. I noted him and I also noticed the way he looked at me. Once when I walked by he looked at me in such a way that the older lady behind the counter with him gave him a look as if to tell him that he was being far too obvious in his admiration. I kept my distance from him during my time there and on my last day I gave him a gift. I remember the younger girl with him seemed surprised by my gift to him but it seem to make his day. Can you get lucky with hotel staff? Yes. But you may regret it.....

I use to smoke to many years ago. I am just saying that if you wanted to open a bar or venue to cater to smokers, you should be able to do so since you are risking your own money on the hope that you will be profitable. But I don't have that type of power so.....

If I were ruler, I'd allow smoking in a business. If the owner is willing to invest the time, money and effort and risk it all. They should be able to decide if they want to serve smokers or not. Employees will know that if they work there thy may be around smokers. If they don't want that then they can tell the employer to pound sand and leave.

I think it has to do with the seating and layout. It always felt like a get in and get out type of bar.

I didnt set foot inside of Tawan when I was there in April. I may give them a look when I come back but I've never felt comfortable in that bar.

I like the Bandara service apartments. Cheaper, nice condo type apartments and a close location and no problem for guests.

In the past I enjoyed writing trip reports but the forum responses didn't encourage it. But here, on this forum, trip reports are truly welcomed and appreciated and I plan to share the highlights of my escapades, but until that happens I will be scanning this forum with greedy eyes for information and ideas from you guys here to feed my erotic hunger for Thailand.

I hope the Cambodian guys are back when I am there in October. I seem to have more fun with the Cambodian guys. The guy in my avatar is from Cambodia. I met him on the beach, he was working the massage scene for a single section of chairs. I watched him long enough that I got out of my chair and asked him for his phone number and sent him a message later that night. we made plans to meet in the morning. We met in my rented condo. In person he was the perfect balance of confidence, masculinity and sexiness poured into slim fit jeans and a well fitted shirt. He offered me his massage services for the price of 1000 baht. I accepted and we both stripped. For me, watching him strip away his clothes... To me, it was like it was Christmas. His body was awesome and his cock was respectable. He later told me that he is a part time boxer and spars with the muaythai fighters and sometimes fights them for cash. The massage was OK as I remember it. I have had better and I have had worse. The thrill was having a sexy and handsome man drag his hardening cock all over my body as he went about his massage. As if reading my mind, he climbed on top of me planting his sexy ass on my face as he massaged my arms and hands. Next he went on to massage my hips and legs. In this positing he had to lean forward and in doing so he directed his cock into my mouth. He asked for a condom, yanked his cock from my mouth and I pointed to the condom. He ripped it open, rolled it on and lubed it up with a lube packed from babylon that was next to it. I wanted to lay face down on the bed but he positioned me on my back and my feet on his shoulders. He positioned himself for entry and forced his way in and I placed his hand over my mouth to muffle my cries of passion. I thought that was so hot. After a short while he was finding his rhythm. Next positing was ass up face down. As some point he managed to place one foot on my head pushing the side of my face into the pillow as he continued to screw me as if he was possessed. He was a rare find and hoped to have many more encounters with him..... I did. He never disappointed. When I was back in the USA. I was talking to a Russian guy who was looking for a masculine top guy. I gave him my friends phone number and told him to tell him I gave him his number. I did warn the Russian guy that the way the Cambodian guy fucks is bordering on rape. Later, the Russian guy told me of all the hot sex they were having. Many things they did made me feel a little jealous. On a return trip I was about to find the Cambodian guy again. He was a little less masculine and was too willing to put on public displays of affection. He was still a hot number but it was easy to tell that he was not living an easy life. I looked for him when I was there this last April but no luck. Maybe this October?? One thing is for sure, on my next visit I will take a page from Numazu and consider a long time off with a quality guy instead of filling my time with a quantity of guys.

I'm just happy to read his posts and won't backseat drive his posting or his holiday. Soon we will be feasting on a447's and vinapu's reports

I guess the guys at the bar would be singing champagne taste by Ertha Kit

No... As I remember, at sun bar and "?" Bar. There are some very masculine and sexy Cambodian guys there. Many of them are on hornet and grinder appS and are happy to invite you to their bar. But to get to them, you will have to duck and dodge the brave and forward twink guys touting for their bar. Is it worth all the effort? It damn sure is!

For myself, you're life lived reports men more than any uninformed observations. Only you know what advise your guy whispered in your ear, or words spoken in passing that led to the events and fun of the night. I'm sure the guys at the bar were great full for the tip during this low season. Already, there are people here that would love to know the bar you were at to try to recreate that festive event for themself. It's reports like yours that remind me of the spontaneous excitement that thailand bars offer. It's the trip report posters that help to pack the bars and generate income, great or small, to the bars and bar workers alike. I'm sure that once the lights were dimmed at the bar, the chairs stacked, the liquor locked away and the floor was mopped, the workers leaving for the night were glad to have had you at their bar. Keep on posting as always, I feel as if I'm there with you without opening my wallet or having to count the days I have left before flying home.

Not to go off topic, does anyone know how to tag a post as "liked" using the mobile interface? I would like the post above if I could.

Numazu, I have to agree that your post are very entertaining. Don't tell Vinapu that I am 2 timing him by enjoying both of your posts on these forums.

You have a point and I think that all of is will have different experiences. That is what makes trip reports so entertaining to read.
