I'll miss the historic fun atmosphere of the bar, and the location of the hotel for Walking Street. I hope the adjourning door will remain open & is still going to give accessibility to and from both. I will say, the rooms really need to be cleaned up and updated. I think myself & Stax over the last few years were some of the few from the forum that actually used the bar and stayed in the hotel too, for a month at a time. Many on the forum liked the bar, but didn't seem to stay upstairs. I could kinda understand why. The bar has been suffering through the last years, really since it didn't have a falang manager. The hotel is always booked up, yet it has been booked on most floors with mostly Indians in recent years, who are not users of the bar, I'm not bitching, as I love the place, just voicing my viewpoint. the forum is still there mate...the bar will just be revamped by a new owner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tailspin Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 (edited) 11 hours ago, Jambo said: I am sorry but your comment about " mostly Indians" simply is not true and I assume that when you used the words "cleaned up" you were not meaning to imply Secrets rooms are dirty. If I was to attach a screen shot of Secrets Reservations for the next 4 weeks ( which for obvious reasons I am not going to do) you would be hard pressed to identify a single Indian guest from the names shown. I have to admit, that really surprised me but I assure you it is factually true. Secrets Hotel has a relatively small number of loyal and regular customers of "ethnically" Indian guests from the west who are most welcome particularly as they are great guys and always are regulars in the Bar. It is much more difficult for Indian Nationals to book and stay at Secrets because very few hold credit cards and are therfore generally unable to pay reservation deposits whether directly to Secrets or via booking agents. Although we tend to waive deposits for all regular returning guests that is a requirement for most newbie's to Secrets Hotel. Secrets does use booking Agents such as Expedia and Agoda however their rates are only attractive if prospective customers can take advantage of the promotional rates agreed between Secrets and the booking agents. The Indian continent is one of those excluded from such promotions. For the best rates and personal service for Thailand247 members, email to "[email protected]" and don't forget to ask for the "Warburtons" upgrade. To be fair, my comment of mostly Indian clientele was what we saw in the hotel on our last couple stays. I can only comment for the time we were there, and they don't use the bar. We were in the bar lots through our holiday and didn't see them in there. They didn't cause any kind of problems in either. As to the rooms, I'm referring to a lick of paint and maybe updating. A freshen up would be a pleasure. They are not dirty. My booking, and looking after has always been easy & excellent, and have always found you most accommodating with your efforts Dan. I enjoy the experience at the place, just point out that the rooms maybe a little tired. Edited February 28, 2019 by Tailspin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommy dee Posted March 4, 2019 Author Share Posted March 4, 2019 its perfectly normal really, a lot of people feel comfortable over there. some, hopefully many, will enjoy here too, but for some this place wont feel like home. me and Lanza were both very happy to see so many come over here, but actually the way it is working out, our visitor numbers are great for a new forum, content fresh and we have a mix of styles as we all seem to settle in to the new gaff here. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fygjam Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I think something sus is going on. They are claiming 187 users in the past 24 hours compared to 148 here. Performance enhanced user count? I think swabs should be taken and a steward's inquiry initiated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel at home here. I have the amazing ability to ignore shit that does concern me or stop reading threads that I don’t like. I also have the ability to disagree without resorting to personal insults. I also have an amazing ability to admit that I’m wrong when presented with new information and change my opinion ( very handy skill if you want to win a lot of arguments). I have only ever made one personal insult on Shss and that was quite recently, actually I made it twice as I thought it was so appropriate the first time, the Mods over there edited my first post and deleted my second, first time I have had a post deleted. Oh NO, I self reported a post when I was trying to explain who Elvis was to a newbie , so that that don’t count. I will do it again on 247 but will make it in a subsequent post so it is easier for the mods to delete. Ling 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDK Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I believe that users on-line is tied to the time set for automatic slog-off, if one does not manually log-off. Setting it to 30 minutes will yield a very different result compared having it set at 6 hours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinkingallowed Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 I questioned the numbers Shh was claiming and it was suggested that their's is set to count visitors in the last 48 hrs and 247 in 24 hrs.

Yesitisdakid Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 it shows 12,516 members most online. Well even in the very best glory days that number is BS. I remember the Sunday Stickman posted about the new Secrets forum the membership jumped almost 200 the first hour after his weekly. Some like him and some don't but he has a massive following Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
