Pattaya Talk Forum

PattayaTalk.com is the oldest of the main Pattaya Forums. It also has the second most users with over 16,000 registered members. However these figures are a little deceptive as actual user numbers are likley to be much lower. This is becuase the registered members are the total over a few years and many of those people have left or are no longer active on the board.

Pattaya Addicts has now overtake it in terms of members and Pattaya Secrets is catching it fast. Pattaya Secrets now has more posts.

PattayaTalk.com is owned and run by the management/owners of the FLB Bar in Walking Street Pattaya. As you woud expect from a bar owned forum it is heavily biased to that establishment. In fairness this has not really been detrimental as it is a nice board with over 520,000 posts from members accumulated over the years. The owner of the FLB Bar and this forum is well liked and respected in the Pattaya Bar Owners community.

It has always been a pleasant place to converse but in late 2006 it became somewhat embroiled in the PattayaSecrets vs Pattaya-Chat saga which is covered elsewhere. This has calmed down now but alwasy to simmer below the surface.

In my opinion still a good board if you are looking for a wealth of information about Pattaya but not necessarily so if you are looking ot make new friends as its hard core members are very loyal and somewhat a clique.

It has a really useful Wiki Section which can be found here Pattaya Wiki.  In addition it was able in the past, due to its previous ascendancy, to negotiate good hotel discounts etc for its members. Those discounts are still available its affiliated information website at Pattayapages.com - again don't expect impartiality, this site too is heavily geared to promoting the FLB Bar.
