Links to Reports of Distinction
[blue]Greetings everyone,
I've started this new thread to provide a centralized location to catalog the Forum's best travel reports. Here's the idea:
If you have written one or several detailed travel reports, or if you know of such reports, then please post the [b]link[/b] here.
You may also include a short summary of the nature of the report.
A [red][u][b]sample report[/b][/u][/red] would be something like this:
============================================[/blue]
Here's a great series of reports by Young & Restless on his trip to Rio in January of 2005.
[post]334449[/post]
[post]334448[/post]
[post]334447[/post]
[blue]============================================
You can copy and paste the link into a report, or you can do it the easy way and use the [post] tags, which you would format like this:
[post]Post ID number here[/post]
You can identify the Post ID by moving your mouse pointer over the "Quote" button and reading the Post ID number in the Status Bar at the bottom of your browser window. It's the last number at the end of the link text, just after the letters "p=".
[red]Please note: In order for this thread to be effective, it cannot turn into a discussion forum. I don't want to have to be so tough about this, but any reports that do not include a link to another report will be deleted.[/red]
Thanks,
Jackson[/blue]
RTFF or SUFFER the UNQUENCHABLE WRATH of SENIOR MEMBER FLAME
Before reading this post the Forum Member should stand and observe one minute of silence in honor of the Senior Members that risked life and limb securing and compiling the most sacred and venerable document to be found anywhere in the Thailand Forum and quite possibly the world.
This Holy Writ, transcribed and preserved in the ancient tradition of generosity for generosity's sake, is none other than the "Thailand Faq."
The Forum Member is urged to contemplate on these heroic souls with reverence and respect while acknowledging the fact that these humble valiants have every right in the world to flame the fucking hell out of you when you haven't (R)ead (T)he (F)ucking (F)orum!
And now Dear Newbie, in order for you to save face and sound as if you might have half a brain when asking questions, get off your ass and RTFF by clicking the link below.

General guide to Bangkok Naughty Massage Venues...
Not a report of distinction by any means but if you need a very general introduction to Bangkok's massage parlors, click here:
[url]http://internationalsexguide.info/forum/showpost.php?p=411680&postcount=1000[/url]
It might be pointed out:
1) It's kinda hard to rank the venues in terms of beauty, because one man's meat is another man's poison.
2) You can get better value from freelancer ST, *but* you don't get the guarantee of performance from these massage venues. Besides it feels nice to be pampered.
3) Bargain hard and don't act like a newbie, (e.g but that's so cheap compared to Los Angeles/London/Frankfurt!!!) or all of us will get screwed. But tip if it was awesome - so all other girls will want to get better and earn their tip.
4) Read the forum for updates since venues close/get raided/get lousy managers, etc.
5) Please post all comments/corrections in Massage Parlor thread.
6) If you enjoyed the information, please post your experiences. We all benefit from sharing, whether it was a good or bad experience.
7) Above guide was compiled from many sources, so I thank everyone whose contributions I used as source material.
8) I didn't get to visit all of them so can't really vouch for the correctness of information.
Information is current as of Nov 05.
