It's been years since I have been to Phuket. As a matter of fact, after my last trip there, I swore I would never go back. It was just too much drama that trip. I had met a sexy Indian guy who seem to be rather wealthy. He took a liking to me which pissed off the Thai guy that was "just a friend." The Thai guy would kick me under the table and pinch me or give me nasty looks when the guy was not looking. I soon called it quits and was leaving when the Indian guy talked me into going with him for a ride. We parked along the beach and did everything we could in the limited space of a Toyota 4Runner. When we returned to the Boat bar, it was war. The slight kicks became hard kicks and now that I was thinking with the head on my shoulders.... I decided to leave them both alone. That was the same trip that went to the room of a Thai guy for sex and in the middle of us screwing his farang BF came into the room naked and joined us. I was not happy but went through the motions. I'm a bottom guy and the farang demanded that I top him. I did it, but I was not happy about it! Then I was tricked into having a drink with some queen at a beer bar. "Hi! I talk with you on the internet!" She yelled to me. I didn't want to be rude so I joined her for a small chat and purchased her a drink. She spotted another guy walking by, jumped up and yelled to him. "Hi! I talked to you on the internet! Come join me!" Sigh... I was had..... Then there was the guy I offed from My way with the mook and the small cock... Well I am having it about up to here! This trip is not going my way! I thought..... Then there was the woman trying to pick my pocket in Boat bar! She tried several times and I had enough and told her to stop trying to pick my pocket! Oh and don't get me started on the inflated Taxi rates! And as soon as I landed on the island, the mini bus I was on made a stop at an office and the people in the office wanted to act official and pretend as if they were doing the work of the government when all they wanted to do was try to pressure the passengers to book a hotel through them... Just get me to my hotel after being on the plane for an hour! Ok, Ok, Breath.... breath..... breath...... and exhale...... Ok, so I'm going back to Phuket hehehe I am wondering where to stay? I have stayed at Club One Seven and enjoyed it there but I think it is too far away from the action. If I off a guy I don't want to spend 30 minutes walking with him to the room. We will both be weary, hot and tired... Who said pay a tuk-tuk 250 baht for a 2 minute ride back to the room? Oh hell no! I've stayed at Connect Guest House. It was fine but it was too close to the action. I don't want the guys watching and seeing guys come and go from my room. I'm tempted to stay there again but I just feel it is too close. The other place I stayed is the K Hotel. I think I remember that I liked it there. It was only a 4 min walk from Paradise Complex so there was no need for a Tuk-Tuk or motorbike. I am even considering Paradise Complex Hotel.... Have any of you guys stayed near the action in Phuket at a nice place that is less than 2000 baht a night and not to far or to close to Paradise Complex? I'm only there for 2 nights. Saturday and Sunday night and then I am off to PJ's place in Chiang Mai.

Anyone know anything about Tour69 out of pattaya?

I use to like staying at the Regent in Silom. It is in the same soi as G.O.D. When I first found the place, it was remodeled and it seemed new. It was a great little basic place but it didn't have a safe in the room and the TV reception was spotty. You were also lucky if you got a room with a window. I liked the place. One thing that bothered me was that the cleaning staff often would not close the door so that the lock would engage. Many times I came back and only had to push my door open to enter my newly freshened room. I considered myself lucky that nothing was stolen. On other visits, I ran into the same trouble with my door not being pulled tight by the cleaning staff. Also things in the room were not working so well. The heater for the shower would not work or very low water pressure along with no hot water. On my last visit, and I do mean last visit, they put in a policy of charging for room guests that arrived after 7pm. When they added the joiners fee that is when I stopped considering them for a stay. https://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g293916-d1151728-Reviews-The_Regent_Silom_Hotel-Bangkok.html

You have access, but I would feel strange leaving the garden area with a towel and shower kit. Crossing the small parking area and going into the main building in the single elevator to the top floor and then searching the floors for shower action. Then when I find a hot guy, trying to get them to come with me to my garden room if we can't go to his room. It's easier to just stay at the barracks.

I don't know how it is in Thailand but Debit purchases and credit card purchases are looked at differently by the banks here in the USA. If I use my Bank Debit card as a Visa, that purchase is covered by Credit Card banking laws and also comes with Visa protections. If I use that same card as a debit card and enter my pin to make a purchase, I am at the mercy of the bank to protect me against fraud and I have to wait for their decision to refund my money for the fraud or to deny my fraud claim.

Try using their support section. http://www.boytoy.com/boytoy-contact-us

They also have the Garden Suites which are separate from the main baracks building. I stayed there once and loved the room but I hated being away from the baracks where all the fun was once the bars closed.

Try staying at Babylon Bed & Breakfast. When you stay there you also get 2 free passes to the sauna along with free breakfast. http://www.babylonbangkok.com/ The other benefit of staying at Babylon is the possibility of meeting other guys for sex while staying there. If you just stay in your room then your not going to meet others, but if you use the shared showers and hang out in the common area; you are likely to meet others. You can also use your phone app's to meet other guys staying at or around Babylon. How wild can it get at Babylon? Picture it... Its several years ago. George Bush is in office and Michael Jackson is dangling Blanket out the window. I'm on the internet talking to a sexy Thai guy and invited him to go to Pattaya with me when I arrive in Thailand. I'm at Babylon and all the rooms on my floor seem to be occupied. I meet a guy from Phuket there on holiday with his friend and we go to my room for sex. Later on that night I meet another guy while in the shower and we have some fun in his room. I go out to the bars and finish the night at DJ station. I return to the room with a guy from DJ, We have fun and he stays in bed while I go shower. While in the shower a very attractive thai guy approaches me from behind and begins to tough me. I turn my head and look at him and find him very attractive, then I notice the Farang guy with him standing at the shower entrance. He was not my type so I ignored the Thai guy touching me. His friend whispered for him to leave with him so I finished my shower and returned to the room. In the morning, my DJ friend went to the shower and when he came back he told me a Farang guy sucked his cock in the shower. When he left my online friend arrived. We messed around a little and he went to the shower to change and was gone almost 40 mintues. When he came back he told me he met a Thai guy and he fucked him in the shower and then in the toilet stall. I asked why they didn't go to his room or my room and he told me that it just happend that way and the Thai guy had a Farang in his room. I have stayed there other times and it was not as wild as that night but I have never regretted staying there.

You're going to LOVE it over there! http://www.boytoy.com/forums/

I like Sawatdee, but it seemed as if many of my posts there turned into a fight and I have grown tired of internet fights. I don't argue and fight in "Real" life so I don't want to do it on-line on forums. I read Gaybutton. There are often good topics here. I tried joining a few times but it never seemed to go through. When they have a topic that makes me want to contribute, I am sure I will try to join again. I like boytoy.com forum. They have very good information about many gay destinations and I can't remember ever seeing argumentative posts there. If you ever plan to go to Brazil, that is the board you should be reading! This board? I am enjoying myself here. It has the perfect amount of activity and the topics are fresh and enteresting and the people here are friendly, helpful and not afraid to share.

My best friend has a credit card like yours. His is a pre-paid credit card that he likes to use because it has Star Trek Images on it. I am 100% sure your report is genuine. I just thought it was odd that last week when I got my debit visa from my bank they decided to not emboss anything on it. All it would take is a $40 ID card printer to add phony info to the face of the card. Of course that would only be useful should anyone ask to see their ID.

Here in the USA, it depends... I can use my Visa Debit card at the WAWA gas station near my home and if I select credit purchase, it only asks for my zip code. If I go 1/2 mile to the next wawa and use the same card to make a credit purchase of gas at the pump, It takes it and I don't have to enter anything, just swipe it. Also, If I am in Washington DC and want to buy a Metro Card, I just swipe the Visa Debit card and the machine will spit out the Metro Card. Often thieves will steal credit cards and buy many $50 metro cards with it and sell the cards for half price. I'm sure thieves now know that if they get lucky enough to get their hands on a credit card, they know to also try to get the zip code of the owner and hope that it works for the card.

I don't know if this is a new thing or not, but I just got my new Visa Bankcard from my bank here in the USA. Nothing is embossd on the card. Everything -- the credit card number and my name -- is printed on the card.. Another thing with my Citi and Chase Credit cards here in the USA. If I swipe my card for a purchase less than $25 USD, the charge often goes through without requiring my signature on the signature pad. I like the speed of the purchase but fear it will be easy for fraud to happen. The one good thing is that the laws in the USA only makes me liable for the first $50 of any credit card fraud and the banks often waive that $50. When my American Express was used to buy $4000 in car parts in Japan, I didn't care because I knew I would not have to pay a single penny of that theft. (I used my card at the airport in Tokyo and I assume that is where the card was either skimmed or photographed or something). In Thailand, I often read news articles where people are begging their bank to take responsibility for the fraud they had to endure. I don't know if the banks are under any obligation to do so.

Ryan, if you have his phone number, you can probably still contact him using line or whatsapp. As far as being blocked on Planetromeo, I have 5 different log-on names on Planet romeo. If I am blocked on one name I use a different name to view their profile. Some members of these forums have me blocked from their Planet Romeo profiles. I didn't know it until I was swiping through Planet Romeo and found that I was blocked by a stranger. I used another account to see who was blocking me and found it was a fellow board member. If you should ever want to track someone down in Thailand, It is not too difficult if you ever feel it is worth the effort. I'm sorry for your loss. I was in your shoes.

We all have our ways of doing the same thing when it comes to offing staff from a bar. Some of us will establish how much money the guy wants for a tip before leaving the bar, and some of you have said you just pay the established rate try to stand your ground if more is requested. I hope this poll will give us an Idea which approach is used most by the members here. Happy voting!

The more mature Asian guys, I find them very sexy. If they are in decent physical shape with a mature manly appearance along with the confidence that maturity brings.... All I can say is. YES!

Just tell them "Thank you for letting me know" They tend to reply that if it is too much they can accept less. Even the non-thai tend to say the same thing.

I think you're trying to bait me into something I don't want a part of. I'll just accept your opinion in the spirit it was given.

Seems I'm on the radar for retaliatory posts. I'm going to see how this plays out.

On one trip to Pattaya, I went with a Thai friend from Bangkok but he was often mistaken for a Caucasian guy. He wanted to go to Pattaya and off a gogo guy for sex. I had to do all the talking because he didn't want anyone to realize he was Thai and once he spoke, he said they would know he was Thai. We went to Abomb and found a guy he liked. I did all the talking and offed him. All 3 of us went back to the condo and seperately took a shower. I had to help start them off by touching and talking to the gogo guy and had him lay on the bed. I pulled my thai friend to us and as they began I began to pull away. When they started getting into it, I wrapped a towel around myself and sat on the balcony to give them some privacy. When I came back into the room they were in full fuck mode. I sat and watched. When they were done the gogo guy asked me why I didn't join them. I had plans for my Thai friend but I made up some excuse to him. In truth I didn't know what the cost of a 3way would run and I was looking forward to having fun with my Thai friend when we settled into bed alone. He was worth the wait. In the morning my Thai friend and I talked about the night and through the conversation he told me that a 3 way would not have cost us anymore in the tip. The guy agreed to the 3 way in the bar for 1700 baht. When I mentioned the tip, I thought I was striking the deal for one but they both thought I was arranging a 3way.

I've only been cheated once in a bar. That was Neal's old bar after he turned it all over to his old boyfriend. The bar hired a ladyboy that bothered me constantly to buy her a drink and when I flat out refused she seem to have an attitude. When it was time for me to go she took the check and the cash rather than let the waiter do it. She never came back with my change so I sat there for about an hour enjoying myself and when the staff asked me if I wanted a drink I told them no, I was waiting for my change. I forget how much my change was but I am sure it was less than 90 baht. I remember thinking how I came out the winner of that swindle. But it was the last time I ever set foot in his bar again. Once when I passed the bar he begged me to come in. It kinda broke my heart.

You have a point, I often forget about the beach aspect of pattaya. Sure I'm reminded of it when I'm looking right at it but it seems under appreciated and not fully taken advantage of. One thing for sure, the place has a lot of untapped potential.

without walking street where would all the straight people go to be entertained? I guess they would come to boyztown to walk past, take pictures and watch a show or two to be able to go home and exaggerate what they saw! I think that would be great. I'm surprised that no-one setup a tiki type of bar on the beach to serve the guys that want to be social but not rent a chair. They can just belly up to the bar and be served by the speedo wearing bartender and strike up a chat with others and then go back to his rented seat or so.... Maybe he could help setup beach massages with hard to get massage guys.

I often wonder why I don’t feel as if I am at the shore when I am in Pattaya. When I am at the shore in Atlantic City, Wildwood and Rehoboth Beach, you know you are at the shore and the shopkeepers try to cater to the tourists. Everyday seems to be the start of the party with the weekends pushing the fun over the top with the large crowds that seem to come from nowhere. I think I would enjoy the shore more here in the USA if the beach was run a lot like Thailand. I would love to find umbrellas and chairs rented where the staff also served food and drinks at competitive prices. In Pattaya, it would be nice to have a place along the beach, not far from the crowds where friends could drink, play games (Electronic or otherwise).eat and hottie watch. When the sun goes down that same spot could turn on the disco light, Serve drinks, have the staff perform a well practice dance and do the things that remind people they are on vacation. In the USA. I would love to see Massage people offering massages on the beach like it is done in Thailand. I would also love to have a vendor selling fresh cooked shell fish next to you as you lounge on the beach. My friends and family always ask me if I had shrimp cooked and served for me at the beach. I only had it one once and after all the flies I decided to never do it again! I would love to see more entertainment attractions along the beach. I think in every beach boardwalk in the USA there is some little amusement park area that has a haunted house and bumper cars. I would love to have that in Thailand. Something I can do with friends there that does not have to do with sex, eating, drinking or shopping. Maybe even put-put golf. In the USA, I want a Thai Style Walking Street. A wild street where anything goes or just gives the impression that anything could go. I also want Thai style Baht buses and Motorbike Taxi’s. I would love to see some change in Pattaya… But I don’t want to change Pattaya. I would hate to go there and feel like I am home in the USA. Yes I would love to see more general entertainment to draw fun crowds to the beach, but I would hate it if the feel of Pattaya resembled that of western culture. I want Pattaya to be Pattaya but just more beachie….
