You're still treatinging this hypothesis as if it were an irrefutable fact.

Dating apps reduce the visibility of sex tourists, as they're no longer going to the gogo bars.

Whether the apps have any effect on the number of tourists is another matter.

Only Pattaya has the apps teeming with cute money boys. App use anywhere else in the world is different. Try finding a selection of cute prostitutes at a fair price on Grindr in your home country.
When did you last travel to the west and try using the apps to find boys?

Of course, but as far as the gogo bars and other gay venues, they're already losing revenue because of the apps which is the most important factor the way I see it.

Increase in app usage = decrease in bar revenue. No hypothesis here.

The topic is about sex tourists/naughty boys & not about bar revenue.

Exactly.
I'm wasting my time trying to have an intelligent conversation with someone who can't even remember what's in the opening post & cannot begin to see a difference between sex tourist numbers and bar visitors.

Do I need to remind what I'm going to do if the posts start getting personal?

Is half an hour hour spent on a dating app any less fulfilling, than say, half an hour spent on a gay board ?

Half an hour on a dating app might result in meeting someone.

The benefit of spending half an hour on a gay board might depend on the content. For example, some write about their activities or read other's bar reports. Others write about activities they have ceased participating in, such as butterflying or bar visits.
