Can I request a temp Ban for a month?

Can I request a temp Ban for a month?
It is obvious that I am headed on a path of being banned permanently so it is probably a good idea that I simply just take a break.  At some forums they have a "ban me" thread where one can request to be banned for a period of time.  Say you have finals or something so you request a 1 week ban.  I'd like a month ban please.

I feel like mods and former mods are trolling me and when I respond in kind. I get warned.  Here is an example:

Another no content post from a lying lizard.  You'd be more productive if you went back to your garden and ate some aphids.

I am not an idiot and she knows it. She doesn't like my views so she chooses to demonize me.  That pissed me off an in the heat of anger, I respond in kind.  Next time I log on, my warning level is increased.  Would have been nice to have gotten a PM as to why but I am pretty sure it was that exchange.

I can't win here, so perhaps it is just better to take a break and let things chill off.

Step 1: Scroll all the way to the top of the forum on any page
Step 2: Click on "Log Out"
There is no step 3.
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?

That is a good suggestion.  I'm going to do that right now.  I would still like a temp ban though.  That way I can't get suckered into logging back on an inevitable troll posts is directed at me.

You might take that month to do a little self-examination into your own trolling habits.

Just sayin'.

Interesting, Heywood, that you're trying to come off as a victim, when it is clear to everyone else who is in the wrong. Cthu's right; a little self-examination would do you well. Also, I won't be swinging the banhammer. The way I see it, a little self-discipline will probably help you.

Meh. We weren't planning on banning him, anyway.

Brain "Come on man, you gotta use reverse psychology!"

Me "Oh, it sounds too complicated."

Brain: "OK then, don't use reverse psychology."

Me: "Alright, I will!"

What an odd request from someone that is always droning on about personal responsibility.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
