I mean that sounds like fun, right?

Don't you throw all those acronyms at me, lad! *Shakes fist*

(I would be open to that though)

Nice, sarcastic post which was deleted.

Yeah, I removed the sarcasm.

Let's not hijack Iro's thread here.

Then it is still living in the past. I mean, the forum I use and have been using for more than 7 years still has this policy of banning members if and when requested. This can be due to the poster feeling out of place, out of their depth, or they have studies to do. A temporary ban still happens ven to this day, with the shortest temporary ban of 3 months to the longest which was 12 months (given to a poster who had a Masters to do.)

Just to clarify: it is perfectly ok to ask to be banned. Only be aware that the answer is going to be "no".
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I see it. I see where it doesn't make the point I did.

Here's your badge of office. Sadly, we're all out of banhammers.
