It’s official! After 1 year of conspicuous silence, the monger who made PY into the webworld’s #1 Ladyboy Board has just officially announced his resignation as moderator. He is also one of the 2 Brits (the other is at-the-time Paeng’s Scott) who 10 years ago made ladyboy mongering mainstream by becoming the faces on Sky Living TV of all the farangs who flock to Thailand to indulge in ladyboys and eventually move there. The name is Kendo, Kendo UK and he is a skilled IT guy with an active media presence. Besides his stint on Sky Living TV, he is active on Twitter (Ken in Thailand) and was until last year the master of ceremonies of that other ladyboy Board some call Pyongyang/PY which he propelled to dominance after becoming a mod there in 2012. With his keen and knowledge-imparting interactions online and his sexpat networking on the ground after he moved to BKK, Kendo became arguably the most famous ladyboy monger ever, a role he seemed to relish until last year when he abruptly went silent at PY without an explanation. His role as the alfa mod at PY was not without controversy as he stepped on a lot of BMs’ toes, including mine. But I always found him to be the most capable of the PY mods and he made me feel like he recognized the quality and effort of my contributions. His departure was inevitable once PY’s second most toxic BM was elevated to mod and initiated the power grab that would relegate Kendo to a spectator role in the BM purges that followed. As far as I am concerned I don’t think I will ever be close pals with Kendo, but I respect his standing in our ladyboy mongers community and he certainly does not need me to tell him he is a “Legend.” I view his slamming the door on PY as the greatest blow ever to the regime and as redemption enough for having been its posterboy, so it is with timely contentment that within hours of his announcement at PY I can finally welcome Kendo to his rightful place in the Romscars Hall of Legends. pic removed ... if you google-image "Kendo Pattaya" the first pic that comes up is Kendo at his best but to post it here his consent would be necessary.

When I started the Romscars Hall of Legends it was evident some fellow mongers were already proven shoo-ins for induction. One of them was Kendo the UK TV face of farang ladyboy chasers and PY moderator extraordinaire who made PY into the online hub of the ladyboy world. But in the process, he cracked a lot of fellow monger skulls (including mine) which made him a controversial choice for the Hall of Legends without much peer support when I asked last year. My take on Kendo is that notwithstanding him standing side-by-side with the goons running the show at PY, he is way smarter than them not just in terms of wits but in recognizing BM effort over attitude. I don’t think he liked me too much, but he respected my contributions and I heard from good source I would have been PY-banned a lot sooner if it weren’t for him standing in the way. I also heard from the same good source that last year (2020) he slammed the door on PY due to “management tensions” and, whether he has or not, the FACT is that he has not made a post, given a like, or recorded a log in at at PY in almost a year. BMs there keep asking about him but, in good North-Korea fashion, the official explanations are vague and dismissive. I take such distancing from PY by Kendo, even if only temporary, as an act of redemption that washes away the bruises he inflicted on so many fellow mongers, including myself. And I HEREBY NOMINATE KENDO FOR THE 2021 INTAKE OF THE ROMSCARS HALL OF LEGENDS. I am sure Kendo will see this or be informed soon enough and if he objects, he can contact me here at LBR where he is already a BM and I will promptly withdraw the nomination. I am not going to put this one to a vote, nor allow a discussion that could turn into an intrusive dissection of Kendo. So this thread is LOCKED right with this OP. But if you think Kendo deserves to be in Hall of Legends pls give this post a If you don’t think he does, give it a If you don't care either way, give it a I think I am doing the right thing. Rom
