ORIGINAL POSTERHey guys, Canadian here planning to enter Thailand under 30-day visa-exempt rule for the 3rd time this year.
1. 1st entry under visa-exempt: 5 days in June
2. 2nd entry under visa-exempt: 28 days in July
3. Followed by 60-day visa
4. Followed by 30-day visa extension until November 8, 2018.
* But I want to stay in Thailand until December 5, 2018. *
I read there is a limit how many times we can enter Thailand under visa exempt rules. Curious to hear your thoughts and experiences. Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user, a Canadian national, is exploring the limits of entering Thailand under the 30-day visa-exempt rule after previous entries earlier in the year. Community responses indicate that there is a limit of typically twice per calendar year for visa-exempt entries, especially when entering by land. One user reports having entered five times without issues, suggesting under six entries in a year may raise concerns.

You can enter twice by landborder using the Visa exempt entry. You did twice but it could be by plane or by land, only you can tell. The amount of days you stay is not important.
