Still he made a nice few quid out of it all.

George will buy it back for next to nothing.

Dokset (katabeachbum) will be back moderating albeit with no access to wheelie bins.

Didn't realise George was no longer the owner....explains the run down in quality....they were even quoting Thaiger as a news source.

George sold it to Cheeseman in 2015.

No wonder desperate Dan looks depressed on his you tube vlogs giving advice on how to work in Thailand and why not to date bar girls in Pattaya. Sheryl's advice on doctors and illnesses was the best part of it, but not worth 60 mil.

Yeah, her advice on prolapsed vaginas was invaluable.

I must have missed that but her dr recommendations were excellent, Hospitals as well. Went to the dermatology hospital at victory monument on her advice, modern government institution, good and dirt cheap.

^ That's good mate. Can we look forward to some better looking steaks from Chez Chitty?

What a bunch of silly cocksuckers. On Reddit it says that it was a power struggle with mods and admin and the DDOS was done by one of them in revenge.

Probably by some mod that wasn't paid a big enough share when George sold TV.

When George sold it to Dan I understand about 6 mods got large payouts with the promise of another share out if they stayed were it to be sold again. If that was the case you have to wonder why the likes of Scott, Rimmer, Mitisdead etc do their best to run it into the ground. Non stop deletions, suspensions and bans have left it a liberal echo chamber with no room for any opinions that go against their hyper woke prejudices. Funny thing is they don't know what is said via PM's, almost sub forums where the mods cannot look, if they could they would have a fit!

The unfounded rumours that was the lifeblood of TV continue unabated.

As a revenue stream forums are passé. No one with a functioning brain is going to pay for advertising in a market where the medium has no penetration beyond geriatric, frazzled fuckwits, idiots and opinionated morons arguing over the time of day.

TV had a future in its day when the flow of farang, to and fro, encompassed many social classes sharing diverse motives in journeying to the region. Now, even Gen X don’t bother. The low end blue collar monger don’t bother except the aged who are quite literally withering on the vine together with the old Isaan broilers they hook up with.

The new demographic is ASEAN, Asian, and ME and they don’t do English lang. forums.

I like using TD as an opportunity to mock, revile, correct and abuse. It amuses me.

And it’s still useful as a heads up when the chickenheads start fucking with us.

So where is this vine that the aged are quite literally withering on?

Everywhere here in Thailand. The boonies, Bkk, Pattaya, Hua Hin, and that poof paradise Chiang Mai.

In twenty years there’ll be no farang residents to speak of.

Did the mods have to change tact from 'Rules have been broken, obey our rules or face the consequences' to 'posts removed due to community standards'.


I certainly wouldn't have been happy with having to rein in my threats.

He's an oddball, for sure.

Is he still in prison?

Pretty sure he bough... paid compensation after less than 5 years and was released and kicked out (possibly).

Lee Aldhouse the Brit kickboxer that lost a fight to a US Marine then stabbed him to death with a 7-11 knife, then fleed back to Blighty must be 10 years into his 25 year stretch, and possibly be getting out soon.

Remember that young black Brit girl that got done in Laos (for drug trafficking?)but got pregnant behind bars as there's a legal technicality about sentencing pregnant women or some such thing, around the same time. Wonder what happened to her.

Quite the story.

Would have been let out in 2021 if he served full term.
