TLDR : Answer Summary
The original question was rejected because it was perceived as a complaint rather than a genuine inquiry. Various comments pointed out that actual questions about visa processes are generally welcome, while complaints or off-topic posts are not. Members of the community emphasized the importance of adhering to guidelines that keep threads focused on constructive discussion.

Let's all get on and stop this bickering.

Life is short and nobody is better than the next.

We are all equal in my eyes.

Let's help each other and only be positive about questions asked.

Humour is a good thing.

Jamie *******
wow y'all just wow.
Ruth *******
More whining? Really? And yet, the admin let this through. Do you feel better now?
Bruce *****
The admin of this group is very over zealous
Bonnie *********
@Bruce ****
then leave, no one forces you to be here.
Garrett ***********
@Bon***
He can't leave, no one in real life will talk to him.

Why don't you just ask the admin rather make another post?
Patrick ********
That's why we have booked another destination, leave next week until Thailand rids this nonsense not going again.

@Patrick *******
Been a question on visa applications for 10+ years.
Peter *******
Right now that’s sorted , why does he need to add his address ??

Asking for a friend 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ruth *******
@Peter ******
most countries want to know that you have a home to which to return unless you’re a citizen of theirs. It’s pretty standard.
Peter *******
@Ruth ******
I know my comments were made in jest hence the smiling faces 🤣🤣
Ruth *******
@Peter ******
oh, sorry. It was a rather stupid “question” and yet, he couldn’t just let it go. I thought the smileys were about the first half. My bad.
Troy *******
This specific thread is kept clean AF from all chitchat, conjecture, random opinions and complaints. Pure questions and factual data only. Even if the comments seem productive but start to ramble it gets locked off.

If you want bollocks, pretty much all other groups accept it without issues.
Garrett ***********
@Troy ******
Never once has a thread in this group been locked in 3 years.
Troy *******
@Garrett **********
yeah I'm thinking of the other similar group .. but yeah this one still does pretty well.
Stuart *********
@Troy ******
you are confusing this forum with another. The moderators here seldom lock off any question, unless it gets too bad. Usually the only posts we decline are adverts (user is blocked), “thanks for adding me to the group”, or random completely irrelevant posts.
Troy *******
@Stuart ********
that's about as clean as FB gets.

wow, your ignorance is something to behold.

It wasn't a question, it was a petty little complaint. "Why do I need to put a permanent address in my home country, I wive in Thailand?"

Because that's what is asks for.
Tony ******
@Garrett **********
Garrett, with all serious due respect, I think this is a matter of perspective. I do not maintain a permanent address in my home country while I'm out of country. I spend 7 months a year travelling. I am unable to complete this box/form for the same reason the OP is asking. Asking the community 'why' is not a petty complaint, it is a real desire to understand the reason. The reason may hep him (and people like me who would have benefitting from the answer) choose which home country address to use for the form as it wouldn't be 'ours' but used for certain purposes that we are unaware of. Do I use a family member or do I use a virtual office if it's simply for mail reasons? THis is a real question.. depending on how you choose to read into it.
Garrett ***********
@Tony *****
Sorry Tony, his post was a complaint, not a question asking what he should put in the box. People ask what to put for questions that aren't applicable to them all the time. He just wanted to complain.

I also don't maintain an address in the US, but like most of the other questions on the visa and thaipass application, it doesn't matter what you put, just put anything.

@Garrett **********
so which rule did it not comply with? Plenty of crap questions and posts here yet a question about TP rejected .
Garrett ***********
@David ******
It wasn't a question, it was a complaint. You're not happy with a question, you're not the first, you won't be the last.
Brandon ************
David Mills just because a rule isn't explicitly stated, doesn't mean the post is useful. I'll go in and add a rule right now that says "just because" if it will help you though

And this is exactly why Elon Musk is buying Twitter.

Shouldn’t be your right to exercise any sort of censorship at all IMO.

@Bruno *******
feel free to leave
Bruno ********
@Luciano **********
Uhh...ok 🤷🏻‍♂️.
Brandon ************
@Bruno *******
how much do you pay for Twitter? How much do you pay for Facebook? How much do you pay to be in this group to benefit from other people?

Do you want a refund for your admission fee?
Bruno ********
@Brandon ***********
At some point, platforms and groups become a public good.
Bruno ********
@Brandon ***********
Not sure how this is relevant. There’s obviously value in this group. Censorship erodes that value.
Luciano ***********
@Bruno *******
start your own group and your own rules see how you go. You do not like the way it is run why stay. Looks like you could do much better so why not start your own group. Why complain about rules or decisions when you are free to leave
Bruno ********
@Luciano **********
because I’d rather stay and enhance the value of the group by highlighting how censorship isn’t the way.
Bonnie *********
Bruno Araujo you’re not enhancing the group at all, you seem to enjoy disrupting it. Since you won’t quit, whiney one, people will choose to twit you
Luciano ***********
@Bruno *******
or you would just rather complain and and be offended.
Bruno ********
@Luciano **********
I mean you say complain, I say constructive criticism. Nobody’s offended, there’s nothing to take personal.
Luciano ***********
@Bruno *******
na you are offended very clear to see. You should start your own group with no rules no censorship as you like to call it and see how well it goes. i am tipping not very well
Bruno ********
@Luciano **********
Not sure what to tell you mate. Not offended at all. Just offering some healthy criticism.
Garrett ***********
@Bruno *******
No one stopped him from posting anything on his Facebook page. This isn't his group.
Bruno ********
@Garrett **********
Honestly not a fan of the censorship at all. It doesn’t matter what was written.
Chris ********
@Bruno *******
please learn the difference between moderation and censorship.
Garrett ***********
@Bruno *******
So I should also let in all the posts helping you make millions with crypto finding kings on telegram groups? Okey
Bruno ********
@Garrett **********
I mean...yeah. It’s not your right to do otherwise. Let people censor for themselves by scrolling.
Garrett ***********
@Bruno *******
100% my right to do so, not sure which tiktok video made you think otherwise.
Bruno ********
@Garrett **********
I mean as a mod, yes - yes it is. Doesn’t make it right IMO.
Luciano ***********
@Bruno *******
you are free to start your own group and run it how you see fit. If not happy with how the group is run you are free to leave. No guns pointed at your head
Bruno ********
@Luciano **********
Agree. But I also feel the need to express my opinion in a group I’m a part of which otherwise seems useful to make it better.
Bonnie *********
@Bruno *******
better for whom?
Jos *********
@Bruno *******
Did you agree to the house rules when you sign up to this group? So, no need to complain now any more.....
Greg *********
@Bruno *******
agree.i get restricted access in some groups and have no idea why.woke rules
John *******
@Greg ********
Woke rules?

🤪
Brett **********
@Greg ********
probably because you use the word woke out of context
