Would it be a correct assumption that the owner of GayThailand board is also the owner of the new Thailandvisa. com ?

Would it be a correct assumption that the moderator of this new forum is G.B. ?

I doubt that very much. The Administrator of this new site is someone named Crazy Expat, who does most of the posting there and who posted this:

"We wanted a site that was full of information and totally free. We have been a part of other forums where the moderators remove anything they do not agree with." http://www.thailandvisa.com/forums/index.p...r/1-crazyexpat/

I assume that GayThailand must have something to do with the new site. Otherwise, why would he invite posters to take part in a posting contest at that new site when it's bound to hurt the posting volume at the GayThailand board.

I also noted this comment in the Thailandvisa rules for posting, which may be a misprint:

"Failure to observe the Covenant or the Code of Conduct shall constitute cause for termination of Message Center post privileges. Egregious member conduct in external forums may give cause for ThailandVisa.com Message Center post-access privileges to be reviewed and revoked at Management discretion... The determination of violations is the sole purview of the Gay Thailand Management."

I can't believe those bastards stole our contest idea and then our policies, almost like a cut and paste. I'll have to spank them big time for this! Thank you for letting me know this. I'll talk to them and try to tell them to be more careful with their mouse button.

You are an absolute jerk.

Finally, after 81 posts on this board, something intelligent comes out of you. I am so impressed, I think I'll start posting here more often. Thank you.

I think we all know when our chain is being pulled. What's the big secret ? If the new ThailandVisa is just the straight part of the GayThailand network, who cares.

You are an absolute jerk. Whether you have something to do with another website or not, I frankly do not care. Your own website, another website are just not interesting. However, I noticed that you advertise the other website on your own. Apparently, there is some kind of mutual commercial interest and you try to promote it here.
Why just you do not go away? Take three farts from your own "message board", go to Jomtien beach and enjoy yourself. Forget about websites and what you call your "message boards".

Your words and your views do define you rather well.
