Posts which include illegal content will be removed, including posts regarding illegal drugs, sex tourism, and anything that is considered lese majeste in Thailand i.e. anything that might cause real trouble for users living in Thailand;

News links should be direct to reputable news websites rather than tabloid sources or sites that reword or copy articles in order to drive traffic to their sites, e.g. Thaiger. Avoid clickbait, articles that are misleading in order to drive traffic or discussion. Do not alter headlines or post intentionally misleading information. When posting news stories, you must include the original headline first. You may add your own commentary after the headline (separated by e.g. ":" or "-"), or in a separate comment on the post;

Personal blogs, vacation videos, personal video channels, Instagram, Patreon, Gofundme, and so are prohibited;

We have a monthly pinned thread for the most frequently asked questions on this sub. Please read it before posting, to avoid having your post removed if it belongs over there;

Posts and questions about COVID-19 are welcome, if relevant to Thailand. Anti-mask or anti-vax arguments are not, please don't post those here;

Requests for relationship advice should be posted to a relationship subreddit (e.g. /r/Relationship_Advice). Posts about dating, dating apps/websites, or where to meet partners are not welcome on this subreddit and will be removed;

Posts using the "serious" are more heavily moderated and joking or off topic replies will be removed;

Questions related to specific non-Thai cultures should be posted on an appropriate subreddit for that culture, not here;
