Great website forum for food fantasists that are prepared to stick two fingers up to the heavily moderated Facebook's rate my plate.
If you want a forum that's no holes barred excuse the pun then Teakdoor is the place for you.
So drop in and vent your spleen but make sure you have a thick skin first.
It helps if you've holidayed in Bournemouth, Pattaya or Mai Arse. If you have an interest in goats, pies and nutty Thais then this is your safe space.
This forum is a sad illustration of aging expats living in Thailand with some repatriated members added to the mix, with only around 3 or 4 dozen members that contribute regularly
Looking into this obsolete forum shows the members advanced age hasn't brought wisdom, contentment or happiness. Semi-literate aging sex tourists, bored lonely alcoholics, financially trapped miserable degenerates - all aided and abetted by like minded moderators who are woefully incapable & incompetent
The only advertisement displayed is that of an online escort agency, evidence of the type of shady member the forum attracts
Best to avoid this site, there are no new or young members joining. It is outdated and no longer relevant. For a contemporary fresh & modern way to chat about all things Thailand go to a Thailand Subreddit
The main members are like rats scuttling around a dark sh*thouse ambushing anyone trying to take an innocent look. Lurking in the putrid urine corroded shadows, they appear as appirations to new members who at first won't believe they're for real. Not long after, these spirits come and physically haunt these poor newbies until they flee, wondering what the f*cks going on, finding sanctuary elsewhere.
It is just another other forum except you have to contend with a vulgar minority of vile cretinous bastards known there as the muttpack.
10-15 years ago Teakdoor offered a genuine alternative to the other main Thai expat forum with detailed posts on the country, travel, construction, farming etc; now rare to find any actual Thai content as few of the regular posters live in the country or have ever visited, and more often it's Brexit, Trump, conspiracy theories etc rants.
With less than 20 core regular posters in their own little factions there's nothing of interest here other than from a psych study point of view.
The former members have either left voluntarily or been bullied away - which is the standard 'go to' from the 'hardcore' members who demonstrate their anal fixations (the #1 response to anyone who dares disagree is to resort to anal sex and masturbation innuendo) and a peculiar and unhealthy interest in members' partners and children - go figure.
There's a lot of obvious frustration there from a group of life's failures.
If you are into bullying and heaps of personal abuse this is the place for you. If you are looking for a decent discussion, unbiased information or a bit of a laugh stay well away. Run by a nasty clique who will probably gang up on you and get you chased off or banned. Was OK when the original owner ran it, sadly he died years ago.
If you enjoy irony, have a good sese of humour and thick skin then you will enjoy it, better than Bournemouth.
This site seems to exist on the input of perhaps a dozen people split into two factions that constantly abuse, ridicule and demean each other over any expressed opinion whether it be factual or fatuitous. A remarkable characteristic of many seems to be that they have lived lives long or short as global nomads who have acquired massive knowledge about all and every facet of life. Via frantic googling to support the intended impression! Most comment lacks any debate of topic and rapidly descends into crude abuses of any attempt.
Aspiring new "members" must submit 50 posts subject to a moderators "approval" before being permitted to post freely. Should any of those initial posts contain contradictory content the "membership" is swiftly curtailed by way of eliminating recognition of valid login credentials.
What may have originated as a promising forum presents now as nothing more than a publically observable private venue for a select cluster of inadequate anti socials to vent.
Sadly it has joined the ranks of another high profile forum site in that it for whatever reason abandoned original purpose.
As put in a previous review" "how dare anyone come here and disrupt our little bubble of intelligence-lacking mumpsimus cackling?"
