TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster inquired about the possibility of performing a second border bounce in Thailand after having done one earlier this year. Responses varied, with some suggesting that there should be no problem with another bounce, while others strongly recommended obtaining an appropriate visa instead, due to increasing scrutiny from immigration officials. Overall, it was concluded that while trying a second border bounce may be technically feasible, it is advisable to secure a proper visa to avoid potential issues.

Why not get an appropriate visa?

I will close comment, the OP has the answer, he can do a second border bounce without any problem (just avoid POI PET).

They are bitching about the 30s, they want visas purchased.

And there's only 1 logical answer to your question, do it and find out the answer.

I just left southeast Asia, 6 month trip based in bangkok. I'm not allowed back in the country without a visa next trip because I abused exemptions, 4 in that 6 month trip.

I wouldn't risk it personally, I'd get a proper visa just in case.

The Policies are in place, but we believe that at least the racial profiling will stop, however you still required to to the 24hour report, 90day report, etc.

The border bounce, the second 30 day stamp for this calendar year (2019) will be no problem.
