How do I make it so that my computer will no longer go to this forums and waste my time when I should be doing homework?

the geek way is to use your hosts file, the idiot/loser way is to get banned

ignore the other losers suggestion to get banned and go with jumpr superior plan and just create a hosts file
 
The problem with getting banned is he can still read the forums even though he can't post.

Edit your hosts file.
 
For our purposes, you should get banned. By posting babe pics. 😉 A question to those who know: If you get banned, are you banned from posting, or viewing the contents of the forum?
 
I've done it before, hehe

Just unplug monitor cable, beyond that it's up to you. If the work is really important, a cable should be enough. If you don't share files on a network or anything, disconnect your cable modem's wire too.
 
Oh yeah, think of it this way, if you can pull off whatever you need to get done, then whatever you're working on will be as good as it should and you'll have more time later for ATOT.
