Is it possible to fly out of Thailand and return the same day for a visa extension without issues?
Flying out of the country and returning on the same day for 6 months extension, is it possible? Or is it risky to do?
Would staying 1 night and flying back the next day be safer? Anyone with experience that flew back same day did you have any troubles? Thank you

Why is it “your right” if you are not a citizen?

Stay the one night to be safe.

If you have all the documents, leave for 1 night and come back, I don't think there should be any problems.
But if you are worried, I have a service that will take care of you.

That's pretty much what a multiple entry visa was designed for.
