I was hopping around the web and found this. http://www.andrew-drummond.com/2012/05/strange-tale-of-crooked-cops.html?m=1

What is the real topic of this thread?

He is not offering a service, he is looking for friendship

Are you the guy I talked with on planetromeo and suggest you post here to find a guy?

Then if something was planted in his room and the police were waiting there for him, or if he was sitting at a table and a guy high on yabba whacks him with a pole after being paid 500 baht and it all happened under the shadow of Neal, the posts would be... Hey! Are you stupid? The man (Neal) threatened you with harm and you don't have common sense enough to not go to a hotel where he has access to the keys or direct sight of you as you sit on the porch? I had my fights with Neal. He never threatened me, I think he simply wanted to try to beat me down online. But still, I avoided him when in Pattaya. He heavily invested in gossip and lies and was more than happy to use a little money to have other do his bidding.

Same here. I came to this board to get away from the drama, trolling attacks and the verbal bomb throwing. First they trolled the trip reports and I said nothing because I rarely post them. Next they came for the picture posts and still I said nothing because I didn't want to offend anyone. Next they came for........

When I was last in NB, they had a few hot guys. One guy my friend took a liking to and we both offed a guy and took them to Telephone Pub for drinks. When we were done we walked them back to the bar. I had to ask my friend a few times what he was trying to accomplish by offing the guy just to drink with him at a nearby bar. He told me he liked the guy and wanted to spend some time with him outside of the bar with some clothes on him.... I was not impressed and reminded him that he came to work to do a job and if he was not going to have him perform his duties, someone else will. I did one off from the bar. It was OK. I offed a guy who told me he was from Vietnam. He was nice enough but it could have been better. I remember pretending to enter his phone number in my phone and threw away his Line or Whatsapp name after we parted. That guy didn't effect my feelings related to the bar. Guys come and guys go. Would I off him again? Maybe since I can't remember anything about him other than he worked at NB and was from Vietnam

I'm black and I hear many Thai refer to me as Farang. Just my experience. On the topic at hand, I will stay out of it. It's none of my business.

Being a black American, I have not faced much discrimination in Thailand. I could say that I experience the opposite of discrimination getting more attention than I deserve. The only time I have experienced anything close to racial discrimination was in Sunee Plaza at a gogo bar where they blocked my entry and demanded I pay an entry fee. It was revealed to me that I was mistaken for Indian and was told that if the situation happens again to let them know I am American.

Things like ghis worry me. Once the mistake is made. YouRe life is turned upside down. Man arrested for having ‘twink’ images on his computer Joe Williams 8th May 2015, 4:54 PM , Mike Whitla was found not guilty of 15 charges brought against him by the police A man wrongly accused by the police of creating and storing images of child abuse says police need lessons in gay terminology to prevent ‘ruining more lives’. Last month, Mike Whitla from Bangor was found not guilty of 15 charges brought against him by the police. After a forensic investigator completed an in depth search of his computer and discovered he could not be guilty, the prosecution failed to offer any further evidence against him, leaving the judge with no choice but to direct the jury to return a not guilty verdict on each charge. He has since revealed how he was ‘suspended from his job working with vulnerable children, forced to come out as a gay man and abandoned by almost all of his friends.’ http://www.pinknews.co.uk/2015/05/08/man-arrested-for-having-twink-images-on-computer/

You are right. I won't feel so sad if my chromebook is stolen from my checked bag, but my laptop used for work.... if that were stolen, it would be a great loss.

I'm buying a chromebook because you're not allowed to fly from doha to the usa with your laptop as carryon. I don't want to run the risk of having my laptop stolen from my checked bag so I plan to buy a cheap chromebook to do limited work in Thailand and if it gets stolen I will not cry as much and will count my lucky stars.

I plan to buy hey Google Chrome laptop because I don't want anyone snooping in my work-related laptop and I am not going to put it in my checked bag has demanded when flying back into the USA from Doha

For some reason I cannot seem to remember my experiences inside the bars of Phuket. I can remember everything clearly outside of the bars but inside is all a fog to me. I can remember everything about Chiang Mai, Bangkok and Pattaya but the bars in Phuket......

I read the story of the guy traveling from Canada to the USA and customs searched his phone and looked at this Jack'ed profile and read that he was looking to take loads and concluded that he was a prostitute and denied entry to the USA. He tried to come back again to see his lover and wiped his profiles. He was stopped by customs and denied entry and told he should not have deleted his profiles. I remember back where a guy was arrested and prosecuted for what was thought to be underage guys on his computer but later found out to be "Twinks" of legal age. He was vindicated but after the arrest and his name being published in papers and reported on the news as a pedophile. Thailand is notorious for child sex and I am just wondering the risk that is run with all the boy talk? In the USA, boy talk is pedophile talk. I don't know what that type of talk would lead to in other countries. Aside from that, I wonder what will happen if on a connecting flight in Doha they demand to see my phone and passwords and find my gay apps? Could that ever happen?

Is there any worry regarding customs now starting to demand access to phones, laptops and passwords where they may come across conversations or posts about boy sex in thailand?

From thaiboy.net This year will be the longest Songkran-Season ever. We start for the early birds already on 8. April 2017 with kind of a warm-up-party for everybody to get into the Songkran mood. The Songkran-Parade will start at 17:00 o'clock in front of the EmQuartier shopping mall, near Phrom Phong BTS station. It will march to Siam Square and end there at 19:00 o'clock. Typical Songkran dress is recom- mended, but not a must. This is the route: http://bit.ly/em_to_siam And here you find the best way from BBB Inn to the starting point at EmQuartier: http://bit.ly/way_to_EM Sawaddee Pee Mai Pan Webmaster Write your comment here: http://forum.thaiboy.net?80371437295595215665641

My idea is for workers on walking street to write down all the things go that hurt tourist busines, put it in a candle powered hot air balloon and release them at night so all the trouble float away.

I didn't see a cry for praise.

His posts were pretty awesome....

I'm going to cross my fingers and hope to read more from numazu.... if not here, maybe somewhere else?

Why should a poster need a thick skin to share a trip report? He was doing us a favor. His posts are popular and many come here just for his posts. Unfortunately, his popularity caught the eye of the PC police who make it their job to climb up on the cross and weep. Once they have done their damage they proclaim that no damage is done and the poster can continue to post not knowing or caring if they extinguished the posters inspiration.

He does not owe us anything and we were lucky to receive such posts. Now the readers are making demands.... I think we may have fouled the well, so to speak...

We went from daily updates of a trip report to daily updates of complaints by people who rarely post anything.

Sigh.... I'm here to read numazu's posts in this thread and that's it. I like his style and I like his posts.
