Personally, I'd like to see a "Ban yourself" for a chosen time period option. Just to circumvent my own addiction. (I'm guessing a few other Members here wouldn't mind that lol).

WOW you must be on a great internet plan , my ISP has a self-limiting system called ( the lack of ) speed , too many posts ( and the waiting for them to happen ) and i doze off to sleep for a while

I can do this for people on request if they want. But as addictions go, it's not a particularly unhealthy one. So just keep posting instead.

Thanks. Time for me to take a break please. Many thanks.

How long of a break do you want?

 

[Mohammed Hazabig'un]

How long of a break do you want?

A month please? Thanks.

 

[Joe Blow]

A month please? Thanks.

Done. See you in a month.

Hey @joe I'd like to be able to see/view more than the first page of topic threads - why not have a next or previous button to allow us to scroll/see previous page of topic threads/conversations (say for the past 3 day's as an example)

At the moment, I can only see/read the 10 most recent posts on home page.

Thanks tela

He could have put a tip in the June comp, and , like the Fairfield Lotto winner, returned just in time and found he's a winner

I have added some pagination to the Recent Posts widgets. Is that what you were after?

while we are at it
if you do a search for a word in Title:
"Food" f.e., the results appear but you get pages before finding the "Food scarity" thread
Yet this is the most recent and 99% of the time, if i do search for a thread by name, i want to find the most recent one..otherwise, i would not remember the title name..
Maybe I have too short a brain...

Try it again now. I have enabled an option that adds a bias towards newer content.

Hi there Mr Blow, can we add something to those little emoji things that say like, (smiley things, frowny things , great content etc) that signify off topic stuff?
Maybe a big red cross or something
I have been just as guilty of as others, but still think a little push occasionally would help.

Yeah, i agree .. the sad frown doesn't do it justice.

In addition to Mick's great idea, I reckon an official thread named "The Official Off Topic thread" should be created and used by management as a mop and bucket treatment, if said post's don't fit into another thread.
Maybe we need a tomato paste thread also...?

We can't keep using the FMG thread despite our propensity to want to do so, and as @Country Lad has pointed out.

This, in my opinion, belongs in the FMG thread.
