I think you said that right, you have nothing better to do than complain. Not suited to life in Thailand. Stay away!

They aren't happy and don't want anyone else to be. Just block them, I do.

@Kyle *******
You nailed it 100%Richard **********

OP@Thomas ******
big yawnRichard **********
OPWell, if you look at the original replies to my informative, we'll intentioned post I am not sure why you would not see them as complaints. You would be better off directing your comment to those who are making comments that look and sound like complaints...
Keith *******
I dont read anything in this group as a 'complaint'. I read everything as good information even though I may already know some of the answers given from my own experience.
Mika ********
@Max *********
and he has gotten plenty of it - so I guess his little plan worked 😂Jo **********
you are just now complaining
Richard **********
OP@Jo *********
asking a question is not the definition if complaining. I could easily say that you are complaining about my question, Bab.Jo **********
@Richard *********
but complaining I don’t have a problem with complaining
Tim ********
Huh?
Thomas *********
You have nothing better to do than nothing better to do 🤣😂😅😆 Please find nothing better to do and you will be ok
Richard **********
OP@Thomas ********
do you speak Inglish?Thomas *********
@Richard *********
can you use your grey matter to understand it?
Ps ****
Personally, I think complaints are valuable. Making a decision on where to go, what to do, where to live, who to date requires more information than just what "everything is great" people describe. Complaints help us prepare for what we are likely to experience.

OP@Ps ***
it is beneficial therefore to comprehend exactly what it is you are complaining about and it's validity, else nonsenses is what you are talking...a Chinese proverb, from Confucius.Jo **********

OP@Darren ********
what do you even mean??
Mikkel *******
If I am not mistaken it's because at least one other big visa advice group only allows actual visa related questions.
Need a bank account?
Want to know about getting a driver's license?
Etc..
That's the 'and everything else" in this group.

OPThere you go again, time wasting,and missing the point, you can buy me a drink first and then we will see if good will is nurtured.
Richard **********
OP@Mikkel ******
it lends itself to ambiguity, however rest assured I will mot be enlightening this group with anything of interest again. I hope to see you at thecrally so you can buy me a cocktail as retribution for wasting everyone's time. Goodnight.Mikkel *******
@Richard *********

@Richard *********
how am I wasting everyone's time? I just answered your question. If anyone was wasting anyone's time it was you wasting my time then.. Seeing as you made the post asking, and then telling me I am wasting your time answering it.
Manfred **********

So!! What’s wrong with complaining, nothing ever changed or stimulated discussion by being acquiescent and agreeable.

OPKim Nielsen you make me yawn sooo loud. keep on keeping on and try to be happy. why so glum?
Kim *********
@Richard *********
hypocrite? What a ridiculous remark. It's apparent you don't understand the meaning of the word. And if you do understand but despite that use it where it is not appropriate then you have some wires crossed in your so called brain. You remind me of a spoiled little brat. When you mature mentally your life will be betterRichard **********
OP@Kim ********
big yawn Kim, Kim who is desperately trying not to be a hypocrite and failing spectacularly.Kim *********
