Has the ThaiVisa Forum Shriveled Substantially?

[General Mackevili]

I might be wrong, but the last time I checked out ThaiVisa discussion forum they had over a thousand of members online and several thousand guests online as well, so when I went there tonight to see if I can take my vape there, I was shocked to see only 69 members online and less than 900 guests. Is that extremely low from what they used to be, or am I simply confused? It doesn't say if those numbers are over the last 5 minutes or last 5 days, so I can't really tell what it suggests.

I read somewhere on there that a dude was charged almost $8000 USD for simply vaping. Damn!!!! I have better things to spend $8,000 on!!!!!

And most importantly, can I bring my vape through the airports without getting an anal probe from customs over it?

I vaguely remember it closing/ being sold.

Oh come on, you know you want that probe...

[phuketrichard]

Its not closed or sold.
Numbers? Depends on time of day. Usually thai time 7-21:00 its busy when everyone is awake
I only view 5-6 threads ( phuket, burma, travel,etc)
Yep, vapping is a no no,

I don't know if it's shriveled, but I do know I've stopped posting... because I've stopped going to Thailand.
I got sick of the 'Land of Smiles' when I realized the facial expressions tourists mistake for smiles are really shit-eating grins... because they're ripping you off.
I got sick of driving through roadblocks every 8 km.
I got sick of being extorted by Immigration.

Ah, perhaps I was thinking of stickman considering closing...

As Harvey Weinerstainer says, "I'm doing you a favor! That's how it is here!"

Stop only going where all the other tourist go,stop acting like a stupid tourist.

Have travelled extensively in se asia; Myanmar, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, and here in bali now.
Thailand offers the most for ur $$ and the easiest country to travel thru plus the best food.

To each their own

Thai food is fantastic. Vietnam I enjoy. Cambodia not so much.

No idea if I can still say it correctly, but that was my favorite when I stayed in Thailand.

Defo most developed food and tourist industry. Your transliterations are just fine, and delicious choices.

Thailand has good infrastructure, although Malaysia's roads are quite nice also.

I liked all food that was Thai-similar: Laotian and of the Shan of Myanmar.

Can't avoid an occasional shakedown/inconvenience by Thais, unless you really educate yourself on where to go, etc.

Phuket is quite nice though, but that's like Catalina Island. Thailand has many nice AND developed/pricier locations. Or maybe I always end up spending more ...

I stopped even looking at it years ago. IF I do a search for info and some TV hit comes up, I might look but invariably it's many years old info. Seems like people just stopped posting anything but drivel. There are many sites that claim to have info, but mostly they're bullshit.
