Will my past drug arrest affect my entry into Thailand if I apply for a tourist visa?

In this hypothetical scenario, a 55-year-old individual considering applying for a single-entry 60-day tourist visa via eVisa from the USA worries that a past drug arrest, which has been pardoned, may impact their entry into Thailand. The consensus from community comments is that the Thai embassy does not generally conduct criminal history checks for tourist visa applications, and thus the arrest is unlikely to affect the visa or entry. The only concerns arise if seeking employment in Thailand, as the arrest may then become problematic.
