As a curiosity, can I block or disable my own account, for say a month?

You can imagine ...

PS for the sake of searching/tags, what is it called when a user is blocked/banned?


I appreciate the humour etc, does anyone actually know if this can be done?

I mean technically, is it possible? Where is the button?

Actually, come to think of it, if I have enough points, can I simply ban myself?

Cheers...
