Well it still doesn't work for me ???

The ajarnforum problem is 'cos the admin is busy trying to change to a new server and it's left the site a bit hit and miss just lately, this cannot possibly be related.

one starts to get paranoid about big brother throttleing the pipes to these websites if they get mildly anti govt.

I don't think that's at all feasible - remember this is Thailand and they take 10 years to catch up with everything that's going on!

Schools are welcome to post on this board and I hope they do. I also hope that readers of this forum will understand that neither the teacher nor the school is ever 100% truthful in their postings and an intelligent reader will try to ascertain the truth from whatever information is available. Having the school's side will help them in coming closer to the truth.

Could an admin print a list of schools that threatened legal action against the old boards or posters - useful to know the enemy.

To avoid defamation law suits it might be called 'The Legal Eagles' or something else then just list the schools with no comments attached or maybe just marks out of 5 to indicate the ferocity of their legal threats.

What do think?

I am waiting for my first threat.

I will deal with it one of two ways, posting the threat online so all can see and leave it at that ,  or delete the offending post and put the threat in a sticky at the top with the offending post quoted so people know why the school is upset. Threatening will make a bad school look even worse.

And nope, I don't have any list of schools that threatened before.

The forum is rolling very nicely now. I haven't been checking for a couple of months now and was pleasantly surprised by how much it has grown since I last visited. Keep up the good work everyone. I will be dropping in a bit more frequently as I think I just got up someones nose. {^^

A good mate of mine has  a fairly new website (thaiexpat.org) started last December  that deals with Thailand expat issues in general and has a small teaching related section in the forum area.

I  got him to  post a link to this site there... every little link helps.!  ;D

This is the post he made http://thaiexpat.mcmweb.info/forum/index.php?topic=102.0

They were having server problems and moved to a new one. Maybe thats why some of you were having trouble getting it. They  Rebuilt the site from the look of it to. .. Anyway I edited the above post with the new url because they still seem to have the TEFL Watch Link there.   Here it is ...
