My grades are slipping and it's due to my inability to control myself. I constantly check TL, flipping to it every few minutes. This is unfortunate for my academics as they suffer in turn. I have several projects due in the coming month that I need to perfect, so if you would be so kind, for the sake of my academia, please ban me from visiting TL until March 1st.

Thank you!

PM an admin.

If you have said "Would you kindly.." they'd probably do it without hesitation though.

I am doing a project right now on the foreign starcraft community, and now it is hard to tell when I am surfing tl for research, and when I am surfing tl for procrastination.

Well the thing is, you can still visit tl if you are banend, you just can't post.
As you don't have that many posts, i don't think it will help you too much

the problem is that i will always be tempted to unblock myself, but if i have no direct control over my unbanning, then i can be assured the best possible outcome.

Although having others make it impossible for you to visit TL is not a bad idea, you may be in trouble if you're unable to control yourself even though YOU know that it's not good for you academics or whatever.
You might want to take a break from computers altogether for a week or so. It works pretty well for me when I get this.

I think you only get sent there when you try to log in.

So basically he'd still be able to lurk TL as a guest, but wouldn't be able to post since he wouldn't be allowed to log in

You'll just find something else to do if you get banned, etc.
fix your attitude, remove the cause; not.. the symptom (browsing TL)
make friends lead a more active lifestyle MAKE PLANS/ get a job
if you are busy you won't even think about browsing TL

If you can't even concentrate on simply not going into TLnet, I doubt you can do so for your studies as well.

Even if he browses TL for like 5 hours a day(Like me, LOL), there is still plenty of time for studies. I browsed TL a ton last quarter including during class and got straight As still cmon plz.

My philosophy is that I can browse TL as long as I want or do w/e as long as when it is time to work I ACTUALLY WORK.

Is there a way to restrict you from comming to the website at all? rather than just banning your account for a time? If so, I'd like a request...

uh, give me remote access, walk away from the computer for five minutes, and when you come back you won't be able to access TL anymore. And you probably won't figure it out either xD. It's brilliant.

Or just press the power button on your computer.

I tried making TL all fucked up on my laptop (by blocking teamliquid.net with adblock), but then I just installed Chrome and used that for TL browsing...

I'm really curious, if you get banned, do you still have the option of browsing TL and reading threads? 'Cause lurking is the biggest time sink anyway, I don't post all that much

Yes, you just can't post. That's why I find it funny half the people requesting bans have like 300 posts max.
