    Hello I am doing my leaving cert this year,
    and as I can not stop surfing this site, despite only signing up this week I would really really apreciate it if I could be banned from all threads except for the Leaving cert sub forum in the societies forum,
    Yours in hope

    What a stupid proposal. Even if someone went to the bother of banning you from every forum other than the leavin cert forum, you could easily just click on logout and browse the others.

    Comon guys.. its a bit of a naive request from a self confessed noob who is aware of the addictive powers of boards:) A little respect please. Attacking this poster makes it seem like this is an unfriendly place, not a single word of support or a decent suggestion.

    @Mourinho's_love - It would be too much work to ban you from all forums except one, and as "i am man" pointed out at the end of his tirade, you can log out and simply browse as a guest, which would make any work we do to assist you a bit of a waste of time.

    Its gning to have to be down to will-power i am afraid. Best of luck with trying to stay away from the other forums, could be as difficult as trying to give up ciggies, maybe bookmark the forum you want to access so you dont have to go thru the stuff that just appears to be more interesting than the leaving cert forum.

    A few people got themselves banned back from CS for exams at the height of its popularity for a month or so...

    So lighten up


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,461 ✭✭✭DrIndy


    Boards is a tempter....... I just enforced myself for my exams.....

    But unfortunately its all or nothing.

    You could add www.boards.ie to the hosts file temporarily, rendering it impossible for you to access boards whilst leaving the rest of the internet free....

    just start given **** to all moderators this might help but it will get you banned from everything

    i asked for my ban from pi not to be lifted. i haven't looked at it since and hence eliminated a significant timesink.
    Better off just selecting the 3 most common timewasting forums: Personal Issues, After Hours and here.

    Go around, slagging off the mods, and also give a link to this thread. That may help you get banned. Or just follow Shrimps lead, but go further, and more overboard.

    type the following into a command prompt

    format c:

    Just agree to everything it asks, only formalities. That will help you get "extra" banned from boards.ie.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,072 ✭✭✭astec123


    how about some practicle advice, there are programs you can get that can block you from using certain sites, most people know them as Net nanny's I suggest geting an adult to block them and put a password on the sections you dont want to access.

    better is "format c: /u"

    Man the swing from the jackboot of ecksor to the flower power of Vexorg is dizzying. I think I preferred being oppressed more sternly.

    User: I have a stupid problem
    ecksor: And?
    User: Can you help?
    ecksor: Why do you feel I should?
    User: BECAUSE BOARDS.IE IS DA SUCK AND I'M TELLIN DADDY TO SOO!
    ecksor: *clickity click*
    User: WTF! PRISON"! HOW COME I CAN ONLY POST HERE?

    And there was the whole feel of apocalyptic gloom about the place. These days it's all happiness and joy:

    User: I have a stupid problem.
    Vexorg: You certainly do, I'm afraid it was your stupidity.
    User: Oh, I see, I'll try to avoid being stupid again.

    Where's the fun in that?

I am completely aware that I am off-topic, but I feel that as this thread has achieved it's primary function, it may still have a use. This post made me laugh, I don't care if it didn't make you laugh. amp! - Voice of Boards.ie(tm), has spoken.
