Thai Chat - Caps & Chat

  Yes I find it all very puzzling too derryman. Why is everyone so defensive instead of open, transparent and honest? Anyway, I have made my points now so I no longer feel the need to pursue the issue any further.
  
  The bottom line is that Thai Chat is ruined as a spectacle now regardless of who is responsible. I just hope that it will return to its former glory again one day. May take e a while though, as the current format seems to have become settled into a routine.

  One thing i have noticed is that the current no show policy on the normal cam is beginning to negatively affect customers experience when they do fork out for pervcam.
  
  Previously girls would get naked for you when you visited them, as it would not be the end of the world if the normal camera caught a glimpse of their breasts. However now that would be regarded as a heinous crime by their bosses, so some are keeping some of their clothes on, even in pervcam. Someone today on Jasmine's pervcam was asking why won't you go naked because she was obviously just showing him isolated body parts. Clearly she was too scared to do any more. She is one of the sweetest girls around and very willing to please so it is totally out of character unless she was feeling pressured to behave that way.
  
  It would be ironic if the crackdown against showing anything to camera actually starts to negatively affect the income from pervcam instead of increasing it.

  I have had a very worrying thought. As Cellcast, the owner of BS, is losing money it has been making special efforts to reduce its cost base. Publicly this has been renegotiating contracts with its suppliers to obtain more favourable pricing.
  
  What if there is a contract, official or otherwise, in place to allow special dispensation to be given to the channel to show nudity, contrary to anti-pornography legislation in Thailand. Perhaps there was an impasse over the negotiations to try and reduce this cost, which may be very considerable, who knows. Maybe they decided to walk away, perhaps as a negotiating strategy, but maybe this has backfired and the arrangement has been cancelled, so forcing the show to now only show daytime content permanently.
  
  Income will drop substantially I am sure, but also costs would have been reduced. Whether one outweighs the other is a moot point and probably depends on the size of the payment n longer being made.

  The statements made earlier that the new show format is more profitable for BS than the sexy show format made no sense before. If my speculative theory is actually close to the mark though, it might actually mean that it is because costs are so much lower now. We will never know I am sure but if it is true, we can say goodbye to sexy shows from Thai Chat for the indefinite future.

  Another thing that made no sense before was dropping sexier shows at night time, when every competing channel was near naked. How can that make any sense, let alone business sense? Well if they are now bound to follow strictly local broadcasting guidelines it is irrelevant the time of day involved and it starts to make perfect sense.
  
  Theories are created by imagination creating a web to connect lots of seemingly unrelated and unfathomable facts to make a story which is believable. The final acid test is whether it explains everything now happening and worryingly it seems to. Bad news for all Thai Chat fans if that is indeed true as little will change for the forseeable future no matter how hard we wish.

  Oh great, now he's worked out that London had been bribing the Thai authorities.
  
  Fellow Thai Chat saboteurs; delete all incriminating emails now!  The @GrandDuke's net is closing in.

  Pretty well every foreign company operating abroad in similar countries to Thailand have to abide by local business culture. If you have ever done any business in that area of the world you would be fully aware of that fact. Without oil the wheels stop turning. Simple.

  The negotiation to allow the Thai channel to operate outside the technical bounds of Thai law has always been a strictly local, personal thing with arrangements coded as taxes, etc., but I don't know how that changes, if at all, with a change in ownership. Thai law is a familiar red herring; if this were the case currently, we wouldn't have pervcam. I do think the current censorship is a corporate decision. Just IMO

  Worth a go derryman, but you're too late unfortunately.  You might have been alright if you'd got in there straight after GrandDuke's initial nonsense-spout, but now he's had another couple of posts to convince himself i'm afraid it's an indisputable fact.
  
  Better luck next time.
