What i noticed about HCMC is that there are many agents showing mongers around, not just to ktvs but to massage shops, blowjob bars & even city tours w/ pretty girls. So definitely will have these agents trying to drum up business for themselves on the forum and it’s not the shop that is doing it.

As to why these agents don’t want to pay to advertise & support SBF, I don’t know but sometimes it is a chicken & egg thing. They may need to see more participation in this thread before committing. But if mods clamp down too much then participation will drop. Just sharing lah because the other blue board seems to be doing well recently with more Vietnam sponsors.
Well said!

Forum is a place for knowledge exchange and info sharing, just like a free market place. At the end of the day, it cost money to maintain the forum and it also requires users to attract advertisers. It is a fine balance. Users these days are spoilt for option on info for HCM, there are tons of videos in Youtube and Telegram. All users need to do is to perform a simple search and they will find plenty of info and links with pricing and address.

Dear Mod, Youtube and Telegram are your real competitors in stealing your lunch from the advertisers. Perhaps Mod will have to consider and weigh the pros and cons. You may not make money through advertisers on every thread. Its probably good to keep info free flowing and retain your users. If users were being cheated by agents of HCM, they will come back warn everyone.

It's sad to see that this thread had lesser and lesser activity so I am just penning my thoughts.
