I think Thailand was banned from hosting events. I don't know how long.
Where did you get this? Or you just made it up , don’t you? Thailand just hosted a FIVB Beach Pro Tour event & an AVC U18 Girl Championship this year.

both AVC and beach pro are not international events. (AVC is regional). Anyway, they will be lifted next month anyway so.

WADA already lifted its ban on Thailand back in February.

Thailand then hosted international events like Thomas Cup & Thailand Open of BWF (Badminton World Federation) earlier this year, if you think the FIVB beach volleyball tournament or the AVC U18 Champ aren’t international events. (In fact if the ban was still in place, Thailand couldn’t even host anregional event like the AVC one).
Yeah, they're milking the cow, so to speak. And, yes, people crushing on Bosnjak was odd and admittedly a face palm moment. I kept rolling my eyes while the howls were ongoing.
But there were some beautiful moments, though, when, for instance, everyone started doing Italy's chant, "Italia! Italia! Italia!" I actually thought that only people who had watched international volleyball would know that chant. And then when Slovenia was serving and nobody knew what to chant, they did that European style clap that crescendos until the server makes contact with the ball.
there are solid fans out there, w/ PH fans they just mimic what others are doing, even the clapping before the serve for SLO. But for some reason the Nippon cheer is much clearer during the women's game compared when the men's team played, it's more of like random screeching/screaming from fan girls or because there was a huge chinese crowd during the JPN v CHN women's game

The fandom in women's volleyball is better in the sense that people actually cheer for the team and the volleyball, not the cutesy player who looks like a kpop.

volleyball word's one sided approach in marketing the men's side excessively over the women's side is ridiculous. They're obviously counting on thirst trap teenagers screaming for the man bulges other than actual volleyball. and then they ran this cringe concept of equality jersey (last year) for woke points but then continue to under market the women's side of the sport. ridiculous.
I'm sure FIVB eyes are bulging out of its sockets with the new free marketing venue. just sing praises to these foreign validation hungry countries and they will do the talking for you.

Trolls? Was i wrong about Volleyballworld marketing? You people like to label things just because you don't like the opinion? What fucked up dictatorship is that.
Grow up

Instead of labelling people trolls, go polish your argument for discussion not act like a child. "I don't like their opinion and I can't rebut them so i'll just call them trolls."
If you can't take other people's opinion, you get out.
