How many times you can enter on a visa extension is not the same how long you can cumulatively stay in Thailand on tourist visa exempt entries. If you are staying 180 days a year in Thailand, that suggests you are not a tourist, and there might be reasons you are avoiding applying for a visa, perhaps reasons that that includes grounds fir refusal.
