Terms of Service

Please understand that living in Thailand is a privilege and not a right for most foreigners so please do not enter into overly negative discussions regarding Thailand and certainly no discussion whatsoever pertaining to the Thai Royal Family and their relations and activities. News regarding the Thai Royal Family may be posted in the News Section of this forum but ensure that you have a credible verifiable source before posting it and if it is of a negative nature it will be immediately removed and the poster will be held personally responsible. We encourage free speech and the free exchange of ideas but at all times free speech must remain within Thai Law and internationally accepted norms. That means you WILL NOT degrade Thai people and people of other nations and you will not make openly aggressive racist, political, religious, ageist, sexist and homophobic remarks and statements both in general or aimed at any other member either in posting or by the private messaging service. Any member who involves themselves in such activity will be suspended or permanently banned at the discretion of the forum administrators.
