The only forum convention I invented was the "poll with all the options exactly the same" convention, which is now IIRC a restrictable offense.
I know the DL dance was around before the dance smiley was added.

I thought it was Werefox... she always danced on people's heads and probably danced on some D/L's before...

I remember accusing someone of having multiple accounts years ago. Shortly after Apolyton was created if memory serves. Everyone thought I was paranoid and asked me why on Earth anyone would want to create multiple accounts.
Talking of which, whatever happened to Mentat?

That's right, the troll song! However, MikeH also had his part there.
Let's see:
It's troll! Troll! It's big and heavy and brown!
It's troll! Troll! It's antics will cause you to frown!
Everyone hates the troll!
But they still answer it's call!
C'mon and answer the troll!
Everyone hates the troll!

right, neither was I since I had posted a bit in on-topic forums before posting on the OT (my first post was a marvelous triple-posted thread on workplace democracy IIRC ).
One of my DLs not only got questioned but got me banned
my first post was about welfare or minimum wage or some **** like that. i think it was a "red trotsky" thread (i don't even remember if that's his name exactly, or if i spelled that right)

In my very early months here, dls were accepted, and there was a general feeling of 'boys will be boys'. Then when the two forums merged, it seemed like the Civ 2 off-topic brought a touch of class to the CTP off-topic and dls got rarer as talks of Byzantium with Prophygenitus and talks of the morality of redistribution with Red Trotskyite and co. increased. For a while I remember dls not being a big deal at all (the only dl I ever had was from before the merger) and then there have been times when there would be a spate of them.
Very unpredictable, really.
