Pattaya Addicts, Pattaya Live, Revealed, Escapades in addition to above. Addicts is probably the best after Secrets, but Live is good too.

I use Pattaya Addicts... IMO they have excellent reports on hotels in Bangkok and Pattaya, bars, gogo's, clubs.. Many BM's add photo's of the hotels in Patts and BKK.....

I'd say pattaya live and revealed are the best, even though the smallest.

The others may be large and growing still but there just seems to be too many nobheads.

Put it like this Tom, if you were the owner of a Thai website, who earned a small income through Google, would you promote other Thai forums through yours?

Absolutely not. Do those other sites promote phuket-info?........ No

The OP was given the names, and should easily be able to find the URL themselves. Why should Nicke promote them, for free,here?

I dont mind genuine answers to genuine questions, but a BM promoting his own forum and refuse to remove a link in sig on request is a totally differenty matter.

Pattaya Addicts have links to phuket-info since may 2007. Due to the pettiness of this thread, we shall remove the links now, I believe there are several across the forum. We even hyperlink them in peoples posts. Everyone knows that at pattaya addicts you can link to whatever site you want, even in your signature.

Everyone benefits from cross links, at addicts we have always had the mindset, if we remain the best then it doesn't matter what other people see, unless we worry that we are offering less than our competitors.

One of your admin asked us for a link but i didn't know it was one sided. Currently we get 1.4 million page impressions per month and 30-60 new members a day, as far as i am aware Pattaya and Phuket are different cities i dont understand how we are competitors rather than have a partnership?

Alfie in my opinion you were in the wrong, you were asked and didn't comply, now you are not even keeping to your dummy spitting comments of leaving, your back and why? cos your friends are here and its a good forum. We and I am included in that, asked you not to leave because of your good sense of humour and what you add to the forum, so do not take this as an agressive post, just a straight opinion.

Farangbuffalo you have no idea what you are talking about and did not even read the post by Nicke the site owner. He did not delete your links and heh you have the best forum in the world and do not care about the competition, why are you a non-contributing member on here then? just checking out the competition????? nah I must be wrong.

And what is so 'well said' about his comments Johnny??, so I can come on to Pattaya Secrets advertise my own forum, members join it, if asked by you to remove it from my signature, I can refuse, and you as moderator would take no action??

I think I'm right in saying local bar owners Geir, Dingo's, Crusty are actually competition to Nicke with their bar businesses, but they ask before posting information and he allows them to do so, maybe if the same level of manners had been done by Alfie we wouldn't have had this situation??

Sorry if I've gone against the grain of the popular members and I do not wish to fall out with anyone here, but just fed up with the petty little snipes. If anyone doesn't like something, we know each other well enough to speak our minds don't we??? sort things out, clear the air and get on with the more important things like finding gf friendly hotels for people!!!

dodg....all he is saying.patts and patong are 2 different places....nothing wrong with advertising a patts site here and vice versa..........and i agreed with that !!!!!!!!

Johnny, personally I'd agree with that as well but it is not my forum, I am also not fully aware of all the reasons for this decision, but realise it goes deeper than just this one incident. I think you can never take one incident in isolation when making a rule, but have to consider the much wider field of possibilities.

The point I made referring to you was, you are the moderator on Secrets and I felt sure that if you asked a member not to do something and they refused you, then you would be forced to take some sort of action, wouldn't you???

If I'm wrong, I'm wrong but what insensed me a little was the sniping, then the links were removed by Dawsey, then Nicke posted and explained he didn't mind genuine answers to genuine questions, then Farangbuffalo, comes on and removes the PI link because, of in his opinion the pettiness of this thread, its petty because it does not do exactly what they do on their forum? he does not even consider the reasons it was deleted here, cos he possibly does not know the history.
