I have a few now.. 4 or 5, if Thai immigration stamped on an organized fashion I could tell you if it is 4 or 5.

Not yet been stopped and DMK.. However, once returning through Suvarnabhumi I was stopped and read the riot act, same as Richard Doodson. Honestly, I don't think Immigration or Thailand really care how long you stay - if you're not an ass clown.

I think one guy had 8-10 SETV back to back before they stopped him at immigration and sent him to the immigration room to talk to the supervisor...
