Had a bit of a problem with my computer recently ,after talking to a few Thai comp shops and getting no solution, a friend told me about an American guy (John ) that works on computers in Udon so phoned him explained the problem and went to his home ,he fixed it while I waited ( 500 baht ) really nice and easy to explain your computer problems to someone who speaks English

Mr. DonThani,

Would you be good enough to pass on the American puter guys contact info?
Can PM if you prefer, or whatever...
Would appreciate it.

Doc: 087 863 8651

Thanks,
Doc

Hi DonThani,

Tried calling John the computer guy, but my Mobi says number you gave is incorrect.
Would you be good enough to check and advise.
Thanks,
Doc

Bit off topic and I have not looked at the forum rules but I would have thought it to be out of order to pubically disclose a guys telephone number without his permission

Indeed. That sort of personal information is best given by PM and not on an Open Forum.

Mr. Donthani, now that the two Einsteins had their say, I'm wondering, is it possible you could somehow get me Johns correct number?
Thanks,
Doc

HI Mr Doc thanks for your phone number regardless of the two All knowing Ex pats who should should know the facts before they posted including the ( Admin ) ( maybe they should have sent me a pm before they posted ) I have I have sent you Johns email on pm , sorry for trying to help an another ex pat

It's recognised practice and sound advice not to post personal telephone numbers or indeed email addresses on open Forums, - simply to avoid people getting junk or pestering phone calls.

It's entirely your choice if you wish to do so. No need for sarcasm.

Post by **donthani** » April 19, 2008, 8:20 pm

if you have permission its not sarcasm., its just trying to help people

Post by **arjay** » April 19, 2008, 8:27 pm

Mr. Donthani, now that the two Einsteins had their say,

= sarcasm.

regardless of the two All knowing Ex pats who should should know the facts before they posted including the ( Admin ) ( maybe they should have sent me a pm before they posted )

= sarcasm.

I appreciate your motives were honourable. My intention was simply to highlight to members that it may not be a good idea to post personal tel no's in open Forum, not to have a dig at anyone.

this is an open format we are all have are own opinion you are not god you are a moderator please let us have an opinion

Dear Donthani,

Your PM to me with John's mail address has somehow mysteriously evaporated into thin air. I wonder how that could have happened?
I should think you need not to say sorry to whomever, for being a spot on decent sort of guy.
Could say more, but won't...at this time.
Thanks anyway for your efforts,
R/Doc

A good idea if you are going to put a persons details on an open forum is also type in something along the lines of 'Consent given for public viewing'. That way you would not have any problem such as this. People type enough ---- on here, so a few extra words is not difficult. Arjay & B.Dero are correct.
