Agreed with all 3 contributors…
in BKK experience can be very different. Usually best is, if desk which checks boarding pass and passport is just at the gate (concourse A and B, domestic during day and international during night). For most other gates, the difficulty is, that the desk (where Boarding pass and passport is checked) is at the entrance to the large boarding area. It works well if ground staff try to separate and only let premium passenger into the area between desk and doors and guide all other passengers to the other side. worst experience is usually at the bus gate, but in this case they start boarding usually very early, when premium passengers are still at the lounge or on the way to the lounge. In this case they do not even try to separate.
Agreed with Thai-Kiwi that Thai ground staff do from their cultural and social background not like to enforce such issues nor raise voice, which would sometimes be necessary
