Its different when you live in Thailand...........

Thought this was an interesting perspective from another site about potential/wannabe expats wanting to live in LOS...................


When you come to Thailand for a holiday, you can be wild and crazy because you are leaving and don't have to worry about the consequences of your actions so much. But, if you live in Thailand, you normally can not be as free. You can't afford to make enemies. You have a reputation to protect. If you live in an apartment, the security guards will know about girls you take back, and they might rat you out if you do something wrong. In fact, anyone near your apartment could cause that kind of problem. In general, you have to behave yourself to a much greater degree. You become a part of the community and the neighbourhood, even if you live on Sukhumvit Soi 4. I know several people who have become less wild when they actually settled here. They attribute this partially to these effects. You have to be much more careful about getting into conflicts or fights if you live here in Thailand. Most people have set patterns, and as a result, it is easy to track down most farangs. The police could ask a few people a few questions and could find you easily. You wouldn't be able to hide very easily

hide from what?

much of what you say is true but is also yet another leading question with no information of you or your circumstance.

Ruby123 is the expert on asking leading questions but never answering any

I would like to know how he has his location as "LOS" and manages to have an IP address in Australia?
I'd also like to know when he is going to post an introduction and tell us something of any value at last.
Any answers to these questions Ruby?

I asked these same questions last month and am still waiting on an answer.

Hi ruby123,
Since you seem to like giving the rest of us the benefit of your experience , perhaps you'd care to give us a bit of background information about yourself. Where do you live , your location says Los , are you there now or do you actually live in another country. Also , how many times have you visited Phuket and what bars do you normally drink in , some BM's may have met you in the past.

The majority of BM's will happily accept advice , if they know the person giving it has "walked the walk" and is not just someone trying to "talk the talk".So, if you want to be taken seriously and not as yet another sh*t stirrer , give a honest reply to this post.

Well I must say that this is not only in Thailand so but in most other countries too.

Why bot just Boycott his posts? easier... less effort, dont need to read them, doesn't waste your time, and if he wants to act like a complete Tw@T then let him
