Does that mean you and the mods comes only in action after a report?

That is praise in australia.

I hope members do not think we are constantly surveilling their posts .

We dont have time for that

Young Jamie picked the right time to go awol.

Been lurking bro but been far too busy Enjoying myself in Pattaya visiting temples n shit
plus im northern english thats used to building site banter, im far to thick skinned to understand half the things people seem to take offence over from words on the internet

but, i do agree agree with the comments about having more strict modding, on the foreign death threads, and due to the support shown on this thread, ill likely be deleting any needlessly trolling posts that family/friends/or any joe blogs might think is inappropriate/offensive

Please give my best regards to all the ""vestal virgins" you'll be meeting on your temple visits.

It has to be said the barang death toll has been out of control lately. Seems like another one almost every day.

The only wrong word in this sentence is "lately".

Not really. There has been a noticeable upsurge in the past month or so.

Agree with Timmy.
As a forum, we have decided that threads announcing expat deaths should be respectful to the families and I'm good with that. Because the news reports say "heart attack"and don't mention drugs, then we should not suggest that drugs are implicated in the deaths of all these relatively young foreigners recently. Ok. A lot of families are in denial, particularly parents, and I can respect that they would prefer that drugs aren't mentioned as part of forum speculation.

HOWEVER, there has been a spike in young foreigners dying of "heart attacks" lately. I think this is news and is worth mentioning, if only to put out a warning for people to take care. Whether or not they change their behavior is another matter. In any case, I don't like the idea that we should unquestioningly go along with the official narrative of all these "heart attacks".
If there is something on the market that is killing more foreigners than usual - mostly way too young - then IMO this is a subject that should be up for discussion.
Thoughts ?
