Will I face issues re-entering Thailand after a short leave if I'm on a visa run?

Came to bkk at the end of March left 1 day before my entry expired. Went for visa run and given another 60days. This was my first run. My stamp doesn’t expire for another 30days. I leave next week for 1 week and then plan to come back. I do not live here nor plan too. Only spending the summer. Will I have any issues upon my return? Or will I be ok this time?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual plans to return to Thailand after a brief trip abroad following a visa run that granted them an additional 60 days. Community responses indicate a general consensus that they are likely to face no issues re-entering, with emphasis on individual Immigration Officer discretion and no prior extensions.

It’s up to the IO you stand in front of you’ll have a better chance if you have no 30 day extensions

If you are going overland just pay one of the border run people. Normally only about 600 baht more than the std amount and they will get you through.

black women are intimidating for your kind, aren’t they? So much power in our skins and beings, you’re welcome for inspiring your culture for centuries. 😘

Ps: your energy was unwarranted so I’m matching it .

You'll probably be okay, but I would say the next entry will be the last one you can expect without problems.
