I gather it's 2nd extension, in which case it's not outside what would be expected given what's been widely discussed. It would be more concerning if it were the 2nd exemption. Getting extensions, and doing same day border runs seems to be precisely what they want to stop.
I don't disagree. It's just a pity people who simply just visit often are getting caught up with the ones who are clearly abusing the system to live and work here.
Yes, this! Or any other slow travellers for which a long term visa doesn't make sense. We are back and forth between various countries, but now might give up on Thailand for a while.
