    You are TD's chief executive. What would the mission be ?

    Seriously. If you were chief executive officer of Teakdoor forum , what would you do with it and what would it's mission be ?



    Correct me if I'm wrong but is Thai Visa forum not a legit money making business ? The amount of traffic and members allows them to sell advertising and make money.

    From what I understood , Dirtydog wanted to make Teakdoor the anti Thai Visa and wanted to rival it ,break its monopoly
    and take business ie money away from it.

    Dirtydog let members do here , what they weren't allowed to do on TV. It was a place for the eccentric personalies that are too big for Thai Visa. Bettyboo, Butterfly , me , Terry57, Dillinger , thegent, DJ Pat & the list goes on and on.

    There is always going to be demand for an alternative to the monopoly. And the little flame of enlightenment that was the DD era , hasn't been fully extinguished. In 2010, this place was happening. It was a million times more fun than Thia Visa. So why shouldn't TD's mission be the same as it was under DD ?

    I can't believe the TD owner can't see this opportunity.

    TD should forget about the initial post DD mess and make up with Thailand Chatter and combine the 2 and focus on the mission of taking on Thai Visa.

    So I would work on a merger with Thailand Chatter and then I'd bring it back into the DD era and let it buck. The mods job would be to do what DirtyDog would have done. Nothing more. Nothing less.

    I think you are on a different planet, Socal. Your head seems to be whirring and making lots of noises but the output is very often out of phase and of a low and intermittent voltage. I think you should start your own specialised forum for people of a similar ilk as you so you can take on TD, TC, TV and the other "normies" of the world. Good luck!

    Partially true but DD was into 2 major themes. Construction threads and monger threads. Grew from there to bunch of threads about Thailand to draw new members via google searchs.

    Sure he advertised for sponsors to make a few bucks but very half hearted effort.

    TD became what it is as most forums have in past few years. Victims of farcebook and the like.

    For me and sure many others here Tomcat pretty much covers why we hang in here.

    With the amount of disgusting behaviour on this forum it will amount to nothing whilst it is allowed to continue.

    OK cool, some specific examples of "disgusting behavior" would be good.

    Will you include your own posts?

    Nobody on any of these forums is a normie. This is a kind of counter culture.

    Well they bought it for US$2 million five or so years ago, so you'd hope it would be making something back every month.

    You can't choose your own meaning of words.

    Google it and that simply isn't what you'll find.
