Not that easy. This whole online thing is a bit addictive - I’m sure some others would agree with that.

No, I don’t find it addictive at all

Just call Mascot a dickhead/Shithead/Knob for no reason in a thread. Do it enough and you can get his attention.

Otherwise pay for a master class with people who has done it all. experts include @The-AllMightyReds and Dildo Swaggins who seem to have a new username.

One of our kids has a learning disability and gets very addicted to devices. One thing we tried, was getting him a time lockable safe so he could put his phone away at night.

The only problem was that we discovered that he eventually prised it open with a knife.

Yeah, we dare ya.

If fact we double dare ya!

He knows that, but if you read his post, he wanted help to post less and spoke of addiction. I dont think his request (if he ends up requesting it) is silly at all tbh.

But sure, everyone can stop posting, just like everyone can stop smoking, gambling, drinking, having sex or drugs and all the other addictive feel good aids humans use. But sometimes a person can be at a challenging place in life and its not so easy to just do “less of a thing you are addicted to”, even though online posting is less “hard” to cut than some of my other examples.

I talk to people about addiction frequently. The first thing I’d say is what harm is the addiction doing to you? If he considers this as the starting point that is a very useful opening to examine, via motivational interviewing, to what extent he wishes to post less and what lengths he’d go to achieve this. From there a plan is devised. Its crucial to identify that addiction often masks unresolved pain/trauma which ultimately needs to be acknowledged and processed but, in the short term, sometimes just replacing a more harmful addiction with something less harmful (both objectively and from the addicts’ perspective) can be enough.

Thank you very much for your replies. It’s great to know that the English/Scots/Welsh etc. don’t share my mate’s opinion, but actually think he’s a bit of a nutter. He’s really just a mate of mine, not a friend. I don’t know if he’d consider me a friend. Actually, I’d probably ‘cross him off’ as a mate too, but I don’t have anyone else to talk to about the Premier League.

Anyway: Thank you very much for being ‘sort of’ on my side.

I wouldn’t reject him just because he’s a nutter. If I applied that logic to my circle of friends I’d be very lonely.
He might be crazy when it comes to football teams, but a true and loyal friend.

This is wisdom and should be considered, Johnny.

Lots of people who hold outlandish opinions can still be good people, including loyal and empathic friends
