It's the same group of farang most nights at the moment, but most are not expats, just long stay tourists. They are usually with the twins (S & M), Det (part owner of @home bar) ect ect. Not sure I would call any of those boys upscale. When they are on the beach at 6am vomiting Kratom tea and rolling around in the sand, well.

This weekend has been worrying to see down here in Pattaya. Jomtien Complex is a ghost town. Nobody has seen the start of low season look quite like this. Saturday night at 11pm, I would estimate less than 50 farang in the entire complex. It was mostly just boys drinking. Comparing this May / June to last year, it's a shocking sight. The general consensus with expats, is low season last year saw the return of people desperate to get back after the border closures. It's safe to assume that desperation has dissipated. Last night, Sunday, saw a few more customers on the main strip, but certainly under 100. Over 15/18 bars, that's not sustainable. It will be interesting to see what happens on the 10th of June for the Pride event. Can anyone chime in who might have been here for low season but decided not to? Is it flight costs? The very hot summer? Or have you simply found a better destination? Maybe you are in Pattaya, but Jomtien Complex is too loud and overpriced compared to the rest of the city? It's going to be an interesting low season, that's for sure.

World Pride? It's all going a bit far now isn't it. Either way, Thailand shouldn't get it till they have equal marriage laws. Not that I will ever understand why anyone would want to be married.

These days, I use Blued exclusively. It's probably the most used app out of all of them. Might not be as useful for a sex tourist or pensioner, but I wouldn't know.

It was a lot longer than 4 hours, and I live on the road it happened. 2 years to lay a new road already. It's unwalkable, dangerous, both on foot and by car/motorbike. There have been 2 road deaths in the last month on the same stretch of road because of the dangerous conditions, and after 2 years it seems to be getting worse. I feel sorry for the guy, but only an idiot would be walking there. A mine field in Afghanistan would be safer.

That's not the case at all. That's the rule in Europe. There is no restrictions on number of air entries. I know someone who has been doing back to back visa exemptions for over a year. He is pushing his luck, and he knows it. So to address the OP's questions here goes:- 1. You didn't have a Tourist Visa. A Tourist Visa is applied for at a Thai Consulate or Embassy in your own country, or neighbouring SEA country before traveling to Thailand. These are 60 day tourist visas and take up a whole page in your passport. They usually cost in the range of $40 USD and require a butt load of paperwork. 2. What you have had on your prior visits is a visa exemption stamp. Arriving by air, there is no limit on these. Land borders you are only permitted 2 per calendar year. Having said there is no limit, it doesn't mean you are entitled to one. If an immigration officer believes you are living in Thailand without a VISA, they can, an have turned people away and told them to go get a real VISA. It's rare but there are stories on Thai Visa. 3. When arriving without a VISA, as you will be, the requirements are:- - Proof of onward travel / return flight - Proof of funds (20,000 baht in cash (USD-GBP-EURO also ok) - Proof of accommodation, hotel booking is fine I was questioned once, but when I provided my exit flight booking and a stack of 1000 baht notes I was stamped in. But I was told to get a real VISA as I won't get in next time. In your case I don't think you would have problems at all as you are clearly a tourist, all be it a regular one. See you at Pride in Jomtien Complex!

Speaking to some of my Thai friends, they are hell bent on change. It's going to be an interesting time here in Thailand. I hope they get what they want.

He did used to work at Bangkok Massage. He's one of the other things I miss about Bangkok!

I slept though the drama it seems.

Old guy near Malasia Hotel in Bangkok. The booze shop near Bambo Bar in Jomtien. It's never hard to find alcohol if you forgot to buy some before 6pm.

Sounds like a good weight loss method. I recommend anyone in Thailand, or any other country, to avoid the clot shots like the plague!

Ask the boys. My Bangkok knowledge is outdated. Pattaya... You can go to many places for drinking and boys. Usually the places owned by relatives of police or officials. From my Bangkok days, I can tell you we used to head to Sathorn Soi 1. But you will need a local to show you. Most of those hidden bars look like house fronts.

It's now moved from Dongtan. Down the beach to Soi 12 area. Hundreds and hundreds every night. They all go after work, but bring friends who are not bar boys. Lot of fresh faces around. Just turn up with a bottle of something and you will soon be in heaven.

Central is cheap. Bit of Thai food and a drink.

Sure, but it was only 150b or something.

And I get called a "troll" right? I made a non-direct comment. I was quickly personally attacked by this boards "woke guardians". It seems fitting that those who dislike me are American. The feeling is mutual...

Once, at Central. A boy visiting from Bangkok. We had some food. Good time after. He has a boyfriend now but we keep in touch.

Jomtien Beach, Soi 12 area after 2am.

You people are still getting injected with this shit? LOL

Shame they are reposting photos from 2019.

All the boys use BOLT now. Sunee to Jomtien Complex is about 38 baht. Sometimes 45 during peak times. I did it for only 31 baht once. (although I suggest rounding it up to the nearest note) 100 baht transport is adequate at the moment. You can get from Jomtien Complex to Boyztown for under 50 baht.

I think I know that Geng!

There is a profile on Hornet in Pattaya called Poppers. He's a handsome guy about 25. Just tell him what bar you are at and he will come show you his wares.

Hence the reason I can't remember the price. I never paid for it.

Prior to covid, and again now, you can buy Ping Pong balls. The idea is you throw them to the boys on the stage. The ones they catch, they get paid for. If my memory is correct (4 years ago) you buy the balls for 10/20 baht each. It's a fun and interactive way to play with the boys on stage.
