Wow, the tinfoil hat brigade is out in force tonight. Along with the "I demand that the completely free advice I have been enjoying for years continues just as it always has, even though I have never contributed one damn cent to anything" crowd... 

Personally, as long as Tod Daniels, James Miller, Ellie Takei,  Benjamin Hays, and Robert Lagas (I'm sure I've forgotten somebody, sorry!) are still around, I'm 100% good. You guys are all total rockstars, and I for one really appreciate the time and care you put in to this site every day 😁

All the mods are a wealth of info and altho many accolades go to Tod the rest of you are highly appreciated for your quick, concise, complete answers and direction. It really goes without saying, but it must be said. I for one can't believe your meticulous dedication and copy and paste abilities.

actually I was thinking more of Benjamin and his point by point answers, whereas Tod seems to write on the fly.

I can’t say it enough but I wouldn’t have had the courage or knowledge without your help and Tod’s in leading up to retiring in Thailand in doing all the paperwork on my own It’s a time in one’s life that not only are you ending your life’s work but also settling in a foreign country . But year by year the extension process becomes less of a hassle. Thanks once again

Totally agree. If Tod & Co are cool with it then we should be as well. Also, having an agency in the background ready to help when people can’t do it themselves could be the final, missing piece of the puzzle here. Good luck to them all 👍

They will continue to provide the same quality advice, and enforce the same rules.

Very little has actually changed, and time will show it.
