Good news indeed. Steady growth these days is quite something in itself.

Shouldn't be long before the site hits the magic million... :shock:

Congratulations for a job well done and hope the forum has continued success... (in spite of posters like me! :D )

CONGRATULATIONS! As a new Farang user, I can attest to the usefulness of the Forum. I am glad that it exists. Maybe 2012 will see some occasional meetings of the membership to allow for another less formal resource. I found when I moved to Delhi from USA it was a lifesaver to have an "in person network" of like minded expats to meet and share stories and experience with. Also a great way to meet others. Just an idea for 2012. Keep up the great work! Sun and Fun

Great forum Lev, many hours of surfing and posting on here, and for all newbie's HHF will enhance any holiday you will have here, the more you put in the more you will get out on this site. 8)

Over the years i have also met some really nice people through this forum and long may that continue on my next visit to Hua Hin in October. :D :cheers:

Congrats, it's well deserved imo. Once in a blue moon you get to come away from a football match realising you never swore at the ref, let alone that you never even noticed him. Most forums I've seen seems to have the mods featuring in the discussions on about an equal footing with the actual topic. On here despite doing a job you rarely notice them as moderators, they're more known imo as just one of the regular posters, one of the lads as they say. This must be a huge part of the forum's success, so credit where it's due and all that. It just goes to show that no matter the sheer extent of our lack of ability at an individual level, people can achieve something collectively as a group :D

And pound for pound it's been streets ahead of other marketing options out there in respect to alarms and rentals, the resulting business has paid off the moderate fees many times over. Highly recommend it to anyone seeking local exposure, so to speak. Now how do I get a free Leo out of all this praise?? :laugh:

Congratulations!!

This is the only forum I read regularly. Partly because it feeds my longing of being there, but also due to the set up and posters :cheers:

It really doesn't surprise me that you're getting such good results, as this forum has definitely got a warm, cozy feeling about it, compared to other forums. Possibly due to the fact, as with any community, trouble-makers and aggressive people are kept in line (or told to 'go away far-far', as one of my students so eloquently put it!).

Keep up the great work Lev, and the rest of the team.

Thanks for the warm words, most of the time it is a pleasure managing a forum that is populated by genuinely nice and helpful people. Our only major headaches come from the freeloaders who want to tap into our growing readership to plug their own commercial interests/businesses/services/properties and give nothing in return - we have bills to pay too! Advertising here really is ridiculously cheap for what you get in comparison to the alternatives in Hua Hin.

Yes, we will be making an announcement shortly and will hopefully be arranging a gathering this year.

A quick update to this to announce that we broke the readership record again last month (Jan) with 94,141.

This put our daily average over 3,000 for the first time.

Thanks to all that continue to support us. :cheers:
