There are lot of people who wastes way too much time in web forums, now having an active net life is fine but spending countless hours in forums chatting with strangers is something which you can avoid. Here are few suggestions to avoid wasting time in web forums -

1. If you hang out in multiple forums, it will be good if you make a list of forums in order of importance and goals like which forums help you much and which are total time waste and stop browsing the lowest 1/3rd altogether and browse the next 1/3rd from bottom once a week.

2. Setup time limits – set time limit of 1 hour for forum browsing and strictly follow this regime.

3. Say it, you won’t browse – Have strong will and say it that you won’t waste any more time i web forums. There is no other way you can stop browsing them unless you want to.

4. You can use block website firefox addon and block all the forums which you are looking to stop browsing. It is often noticed that if you don’t visit a forum for sometime, your attachment will anyway come down as the urge.

5. I uses my anti virus software to block many sites (not just forums) so if you are using nod32 (or similar anti virus software) you can also block such forums.

In the end, whenever you are browsing forums, avoid replying to people, avoid flame wars and tell yourself that your time is important. Hope the article helps in stop wasting time in web forums.
