classic! you know you're speaking well when they don't say anything about it at all, but instead just answer and continue the conversation as they would with any other Thai person.

sort the sound quality out pls....

to me, it's just their compliment as they always tend to be polite, granted i've only studied thai for 3 years, while visiting the country twice, but i've gotten the same response even with my crappy newb thai from the first year i started. but as i said, i'm just takin it as a "well, it's nice that you try for such a language', rather than the literal "you speak thai well", cuz we all know that in the beggining stages, this isn't true.

LoL. This is very true. The same thing happened to me.

So true.. wahahaha.

I've been here for 10 years and the whole พูดไทยเก่ง thing drives me insane. It has no meaning as far as I am concerned. Sometimes I amswer with ใช่ครับ but for some reason that doesn't always go down well. Sometimes people ask ทำไมพูดไทยได้

I know what ya mean, but there isn't much you can do.
You'd be better off not taking it very seriously. If someone asks you ทำไมพูดไทยได้, answer with something funny. For example - เป็นคนลาวไง
So every time someone asks you, consider it a challenge to come up with a better answer.
Maybe something like - ไม่รู้เหมือนกัน วันหนึ่งตื่นมาก็พูดได้เอง

Of course, there isn't any reason you can't be ชัด before you are คล่อง its just unusual possibly because a number of people don't bother with really learning the rules of the alphabet before they start talking.
