For a person trying to make a point about having a legal business in Thailand (sorry for the fortune spent) and hiring local people, you're actually being quite offensive calling them local retards. I'm sure those "retards" are not so much retarded if you actually funded a profitable company there, dou*bag. Or was it just because your charming personality?

I think he was just talking about the people doing wordpress/joomla development, not locals in general.

Probably so, still you're not a retard simply because you work developing Wordpress or Joomla sites. The condescendent and aggressive tone of the reply makes me read nothing but "boo-hoo" from the typical hater that finds joys in arguing over everything. Instead of focusing in the learning experiences and interesting facts of the blog post, starting with a "yawn" doesn't make very constructive does it?

True, people developing Joomla sites are not the retards, their customers are.

Just kidding. And I agree with you.

The tone is admittedly aggressive, but his feet are way more in the ground than those of the authors of the article. What those guys are doing is essentially illegal.
