Ban Conq Pole

Ban Conq poles are a common type of pole in GS, having first debuted in GS6 and been a looming presence for several games now.

Poles
The first poll to ban Conq was actually a poll to ban Arion, but this was later extended to include Koe and Conq. Further details can be seen here. This is not really considered to be a Ban Conq Pole. The 1st Ban Conq Pole occured following Conq's Presidential Promise, where a public poll was made to all GS members on whether Conq should be banned from the server or not. The main reasoning was what many perceived as racism from Conq. While the pole failed and resulted in a lot of tantrums from those who supported his ban, the idea of another Ban Conq Pole as been a constant fixture in the GS consciousness.

The 2nd Ban Conq pole occured in GS7 when Koe posted a debate topic regarding affirmative action, which Conq stated that he wouldn't participate in in fear of another poll. Delta jokingly posted a poll, which resulted in a victory for the pro-ban faction.

The 3rd one occured when Conq was asked what he would do as prime minister. He refrained from commenting, resulting in the pole for presumed racism.

Subsequent jokey poles occured in the future, although anti-Conq sentiment did continue for some time afterwards due to his personal beliefs. Mainly racism. The terror of Ban Conq Poles partially led to the creation of the KLM/CLM Protests later on.

As a side note, Conq was banned from the community again on the 28th of October 2021.
