If 'doing fine' means having a shrinking membership now composed almost entirely of halfwits, cretins, idiots, imbeciles and wankers then you may be right. If, however, it means being anything like as lively and worth visiting as it was in the near past, then it's not so much 'doing fine' as 'utterly shit and three-quarters dead already'. On the second interpretation, a collapse in the forum's Alexa ranking from a high of around 15,000 to its current dismal position of 230,000 would seem to support this. Still, those who enjoy the lively exchange of well-informed and clearly expressed ideas bouncing between intellectual titans such as you, Terry, Jeff and Piwanoi will be in for a treat, won't they.
booming compared to this place.
This is true but discovering that your looks compare favourably to those of Stephen Hawking doesn't really prove much about your desirability, does it.
What's saddest- a forum, or a 'forum' that bitches about oher forums? Geddalife.
Thanks mainly to Mid, I reckon the Thai & Asia News here is second to none.
TD, apart from the usual banter & political stuff, is very good on Builders threads & Trip reports.

TD of TC I bore easily with the infantile quibble kings and the one line queens of ethnic taunts. As I said before it seems to keep some amused. As to our resident of the richest province of the richest nanny state on the globe, he has a yellow plastic car, and probably feels the need to castigate repeatedly against his dependency on his 'home and native land'.
Who gives a bollocks about ratings, we all post for your own reasons. There said that so its goodnight from him and goodnight from me
Yes, Teakdoor is broken and it's never going to get un-broken. It's a shame that this forum missed the opportunity to develop as an alternative but I think that boat has well and truly sailed now.[/COLOR]
Agreed.

What are you talking about, I don't post on Teakdoor.

Seems like a mighty tumble. Especially for the projected advertising revenues.
I reckon the old adage of "if it works, don't fix it" was lost somehow on the boneheads running the show now. Too funny!
I really enjoyed TD back in the day. There were some great posters and some heated, but fun discussions. Even Butters and Stroller made the place great. Ray Fairy and Jeff can hang it up, but I wish about 100 of the best of the best posters from those days were here. It could be a nice reunion.
in their defense, it has been going down for a while, before the take over, that is around 2009,
the mods politics in the backroom started to ruin the place as some mods stopped posting because they were mad of other mods (Hillbilly and Frankie were apparently into a fight, dragging other mods with them, can't remember the silly details, ChiangMai Noon was also in between)
When mods start to fight over silly shit and petty politics, publicly or not, the forum place will suffer from it.

even then, a lot of shit was allowed to hit the fan. Hillbilly had a referendum to ban me and it didn't work. But when the swiss ****stick took over, he trashed it
I got some good stuff on TD, did you know that there was a Mod mutiny prior to Erics demise, they all were going to band together to unmod them selves and not perform any Mod duties, send a 100 bill no Canadian crap just good old USD and I will give you all the info.

I still go there. Yes some of the old "you're gay" "no I'm not" nonsense has gone but those threads were just simplistic anyway.
I don't see this forum as any better or worse.
