Is there a cure for Scuttlebutt addiction?

Try doing cold turkey.

Climb up your mast without a WiFi connection and wait for the demons (forumites with over 5,000 postings) to chase you to enternity.

Couple days later you will be fine.
 
Just stay out of The Lounge.
PBO is full of Pipe smoking/slipper types that mean no harm, Bless them.
Mobo chat is good light hearted stuff if a bit Bling.
Just stay out of the Lounge.
Classic boat, well that just makes PBO Look like Rocket Science.
Liveaboards, thats where all the tax dodgers and DHSS Collect.
Good tips there on Claiming stuff etc etc.
Just stay out of the Lounge.
You see Scuttlebutt is just an arrangement of lost souls that mean no harm but haven't got SKYE TV or a Digi Box.
Quite nice people really but generally have lost their way in life.
Glad to help other Lost Souls like Yourself.
You see I'm on here cos I have been known to sell the odd used car or so to people that didn't want one.
So by definition I have no soul( or heart some say)
Just don't go in the Lounge.
Thames stuff, well you know those Cockney sparras they'l just sell you up the River!
Steer clear if the Lounge.
Virtual pub?
All you see in there is "Drinks in Wokingham" anyone
Christ they are right piss heads get no sense out of them.
Definately don't go near the Lounge.
For sale Forum ?limits too low for a Man of your esteem.
Wanted Forum ? Their all on the Liveaboard Link!
Don't go any were near the Probs with the Forum how does My Computer work Dept.
They are all Nurds with big puter Words.
Stay with the Scuttlers they are nice kind of Muddlers Honest but daft sail all sorts of craft Sails and engines they don't give a toss but stay were you are and you'l hear less Dross.
Mobo Forum is good for a laugh though listening to how much diesel they go through!

Not as such. However, there is a form of treatment available FOC from ybw.

Visit the Lounge 3 times per hour at two hourly intervals for 7 months. Be sure to drink plenty of fluids during each visit.

3 Times an hour? But it takes me an hour to trawl through the latest offerings on PBO forum, and another to do Scuttlebut, then there is Mobo forum and Classic forum, and you have to move really fast to get a bargain off the For Sale forum before some other so and so has nipped his PM in ahead of mine.... and I just CANT leave it till I have checked it all out.

So sorry - thats not a solution for the hardened forum addict.

(And of course I am not admitting anything saying that, i can handle it, and take a ten minute break any time I like /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif)

Steady on - I mean, I may have a problem, but I've still got my standards...
(I'd thought of the Lounge as the forum equivalent of the spot under the railway arches where all the ne'er-do-wells hang out..)

I'll try cold turkey on the Classic Boat forum...

Don't forget to keep the fat for tallow and the turkey neck for whittling in the quiet hours.
