TLDR : Answer Summary
The questioner is concerned about potential issues with Thai border control given their history of multiple short visits this year. Responses from the community generally reassure that there should be no problems at border control for their upcoming trip, as they are viewed as a genuine tourist based on their entry history. However, some comments do raise concerns about potential scrutiny in the future if multiple tourist visas are obtained within a short timeframe.

Read Thai visa comments about people getting denied because they are not getting right visaโ€™s, 3 times a year tourist? How many people have that much time off?

a lot actually. Not everyone has to be poor and the Thais probably know this since they allow you to stay 60 days visa exempt with a possibility to extend.
