Ahem! I've only been banned once from this forum, for making a joke about AH's wife.I think I banned seven people for posting all-Banana type polls once that group - Iain, GP, Stefu and four others did nine threads with banana polls in the course of a few minutes. The mass banning (although five were only for a day and two for three days) became known as Bananagate, and pretty much guaranteed every poll in the OT since then has a banana option.
Personally, I've wondered why people always tend to give me too big of a role in the whole banana thingy. I didn't come up with it, though I've been using it pretty much ever since it became a convention."Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U.

PollGate is a later incident, I recall being here when it happened, so it was in late 2001 or onwards. I remember that people (myself includedOriginally posted by Frogger

I can't remember...
and JohnT I think) were trying to post in the polls before they got closed, and nearly got banned, but in the end only the poll starters got restricted. Those polls did also have the theme of having many identical options for "experimental purposes", but when PollGate happened banana was already a tradition.

The banana thing was started by Starchild as part of the Poly Gay Conspiracy.
And 'pollgate' is famous? I was part of that

Who needs to know what the banana thing is about. I saw that everyone else put a banana so I put them in mine.
After all if everyone else is doing it, do you need another reason for doing anything?Only feebs vote.Comment

No. That's why the scientific method should just be accepted.
