    I'm sure this is a problem to many die-hard posters here... Any good suggestions? Besides having the moderator to perminently ban you from the site... What's your approach?

    Get laid off from your job and spend 11 months looking for another one.

    It worked for me!

    Now that I am starting to post a lot more, I have a baby due soon.

    I'm guessing that my posting will come to a crawl.

    The BBS being down is the only way to keep me off here at work. However, if I'm not at work, I'm usually not here either.

    hmmm... good question.

    the only thing i can imagine being better than posting here would be laying on my bed, drinking coffee, smoking a cigarette, watching jerry springer on tv, and chanting "sit down w****" with the audience. :)

    sigh... not until i win the mega millions lottery. :(

    Haha... same problem here... hard to shut down the BBS while also doing work using computers... This site has become a medium for me to vent my stress... but somehow I'm feeling more stress after spending too much time on the BBS & not getting the work done, damn!...:mad:

    Not making your weekly quota at work would do the trick. This would have happened to me if the site didn't go down last Friday. I kicked ass and took names that day. My boss even complimented my work the following Monday.

    If she only knew the reason why...

    By the way, I just saw the top 100 post counts thread a year ago... gee, a number of you guys have made a "significant" progress over the last year (more posts than previous years combined!)e.g. RM95... & why is that?

    Don't tell me these posters trying to be more competitive with their post counts... :D

    I had to take some sleeping pills last night. This board had been keeping up until around 2 all year.

    Give me my life back, Clutch.
