TotallyOz Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 I love it when a community comes together to support one of our own. In this case, Gaybutton's website opened up this week and we have posts here linking to that site. Also, SGT and Baht-Stop have active threads about his new site. I think it is fantastic when all the major sites come together to support a fellow member of our community who opens his own site. ElephantSpike and I have always thought that there was plenty of room in the Gay Thailand community for many boards. I am sure other boards feel the same. The boards should not feel like they are in competition with each other for members or for statistics. We are all in this for the same reason (or should be) and that is to enhance the livelihood of all businesses in Thailand and to help more gay men visit here with ease. Thank you to Baht Stop and Sawatdee Gay Thailand for supporting GayButton in his new endeavor! Like them, we wish him great luck and wonderful success.

Bob Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Although I can't agree with your perception that the active threads at the two other websites you mention are generally supportive of anything or anybody, I would note that your comments are, consistent with how I've viewed your posting history, rather gracious and classy. Best wishes for your new ventures - and I hope you'll find the time to occasionally participate in Ting Tong and GB's new board. Quote
Guest Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 Although I can't agree with your perception that the active threads at the two other websites you mention are generally supportive of anything or anybody I can't disagree there. But, they allowed the links to be presented. What happens after that is often folly for others to play with. At least they allowed the links and in my mind that was the Owners / Moderators showing they are OK with having another Thailand message board. I hope you'll find the time to occasionally participate in Ting Tong and GB's new board. I am already posting at GayButton's board and hope to continue to do so until he kicks me off. GayButton is one of the most knowledgeable men in Thailand about the scene here and the goings on. While I don't always agree with his tone, I normally agree with this diagnosis. Quote
Guest travelerjim Posted August 9, 2010 Posted August 9, 2010 Yes, GT... It is great that you have supported the start of GB's new message board... I wish the new owners of GayThailand.com much success... and you too! ...Thanks again!! I like their start with gathering and posting url's... of Gay businesses and websites for the Gay community to enjoy and support... That's good community GAY PRIDE! I am happy this GT board invites others to post.. the links to others...all in support of each other... I wish all Gay message boards would adopt the same philosophy of support... as you GT have...ALL for ONE...ONE for ALL! I believe it makes good business sense too... IMHO. Thank You! tj Quote
