OK, for me, and a lot of others, I think this would be a great feature on Pistonheads.
Not for everyone though.
Totally voluntary.
Friday/Saturday or whatever night you tend to get pissed.
A feature, to allow oneself to stop posting for lets say, 10 hours. (add/remove as per)
I have posted here, and on other forums, only to read my drivel the next day and think.
Oh why do I do it?
What do people think?

You mean like a test to see if you can spot the tractor, or count down from 10 backwards, or walk in a straight line?

I think it's a great idea an we should start it in 10.. 7...4....8...3...5...2...9..1...6.

Very Good!
No, a button, press it before you start drinking.
Read only for 10 hours.

You can down a lot in 10 hours.

Maybe a button to stop you posting after say 20.00 would be better and you press it before you start drinking.

Alternatively have a button which charges you the price of a pint per post, and you can't post until you have paid. All proceeds can go to a charity of your choice which you can nominate the next day when you are sober.

How much yikes

That should stop you doing it more than once.

Or maybe you could try not logging in when you are pissed.

Your 8pm button sounds the best bet.
Why try anything when your pissed?
Because all the 'Best ideas ' happen then.
It's not very likely to go to plan.
