So basically what you are saying is that people are ignorant if they are worried a bitcoin conference in a world wide known
sexual tourist destination might be a bad idea?

No, I'm saying they're ignorant because they claim Amsterdam is only known for drugs & sex, Pattaya is only known for child prostitution, New York is only known for drug related gang wars, San Francisco is only known as a great place to meet friendly bums, Moscow is only known as the place where former KGB agents assassinate journalists etc.

Feel free to answer the question I wrote to you earlier:

If Pattaya is such an obviously bad place for a conference, why is one of Thailand's biggest and most modern conference centres there?

Exactly that.

This thread, like most of the threads in this forum, has become overrun by 98% 13-year-old children who are making a concerted trolling attack on the Bitcoin Forums. Don't fall for it. That's all they are.... just children trolling for jollies. Like kids playing telephone pranks.

It is very sad that it is destroying the Bitcoin Community's central point of communication. Oh for the "old days" when adults discussed topics relevant to bitcoin... with other adults... here in these forums.

Sadly, a certain percentage of real people will come here and read these posts and believe that they are posted by other real people... And they will begin to believe that there is some percentage of people who believe a certain way... When, in fact, the entire thread.... and the entire forum... is being "social engineered" by a bunch of 13-year-old kids.

For anyone's information, Thailand is extremely strict about child abuse. Mess around with anyone under 18 and you are SURE to find yourself in a Thai prison for life. In New York City ( the states of New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut ), the legal age of consent is 17. In Thailand, the age is 18. And EVERYONE checks... in three ways. So if anyone is thinking about going to Thailand for child-sex.... You'd better think again! It's not going to happen there without severe consequences.

Also, Be Warned: Thailand is extremely harsh on illegal drugs. The smallest amount of an illegal substance brought into Thailand WILL result in the death penalty. Make no mistake about it.

If you are looking for these things, Thailand is NOT the place for you.

Don't be misled by the false information being posted by 13-year-old kids trolling for laughs here.

Also, as we already announced..... We are working on Bitcoin Conferences in ALL of the following cities:

Dubai
Pattaya
Sydney
San Jose
Mumbai
Warsaw
Moscow
Seoul
Rio de Janeiro
New York City
Shenzhen
London

I believe that "The Big Conference" will be the one held in New York City each year.

Obviously, everyone can pick and choose which cities they would like to attend. If you don't care for one of the cities on the list, please do not attend that one.

On another topic, the current state of this Forum has made it almost useless.... with the children who are all about vandalizing the forum with viscous comments and attacking everyone. I am considering starting my own Forum --- separate from this one --- for adults only. I don't really have time to moderate a Forum, but I will hire someone to do so if I need to. We need a Forum for open adult discussion.
