What are the visa options for casual visitors to Thailand who plan to travel multiple times a year?

The community suggests that casual visitors to Thailand, traveling three to four times a year, should ideally avoid overstays and border runs to prevent potential issues with immigration. It was mentioned that a tourist visa, which can be extended, is a viable option for longer stays. As long as the traveler maintains a clear intent to visit as a tourist—such as booking hotels and having a return ticket—there should be no problems with entry. However, those attempting to stay longer without proper visas may face scrutiny.
