Poll War II/Meme Squad

For more information on this event, see The November Crisis.

In the first Poll War, I was simply a surveyor, not knowing what was going on. Now, with this poll war, I had (keyword "had"-more on that in a minute) an account, and I can tell you everything. The poll war was a battle between the Narwhals and Anti-Polls that only lasted for a week.

Beginnings
On November 15, 2017, the user MartySays made this poll:

"'poll: what was your favorite science experiment in middle school?'"Pretty harmless, since the poll was about the strip. Most people were fine with this poll, but a few of them weren't.

Some other people weren't on board with the polls either, like LINK_O_NEAL and Nate Clone, because of the first poll war. After all this, you'd think he would stop with the polls so as not to spread the heat, but he came back with another poll the next day:"'poll: have you ever been disappointed by a plant failure before?" Things just started to get worse from there. GoComics users like Mdomino and Hockey17 were close to leaving, and the Anti-Polls like LINK_O_NEAL just kept arguing over the polls. You'd think he would've stop the polls like any other sane person, but he came back AGAIN with another poll:

"'poll: have you ever suffered a loss of nature? like a plant'" I don't even... facepalm

War breaks out... again
This was getting bad. Now it was a full-fledged war. Because of MartySays' polls, the comment section was divided up again. I was pretty worried about this because of Vietnam wa- I mean, Poll war I flashbacks, so even though I was fine with the polls, I made a comment asking him to stop making polls to make the Big Nate comment section great again (subtle Donald Trump reference) but instead he replied "you can't make me." However, he made the mistake of replying with his other account, Boosted, the one he uses to make himself featured. At the time, a lot of people speculated that they were the same person, but no one could prove it until now. This was enough to make me an Anti-poll. The fighting became worse, and now Ellensays not only made polls, he also made rude replies to the anti-polls. One time, when Mdomino said he'd be leaving the comment section because of the polls, Ellensays replied with this:"'just leave nobody cares tbh'" Hypocrite.

Even worse, the polls were spreading to other users like LOLtheboss157 and Minyhyugen. The worst case-offender has to come from Artur the second:"'poll: write a big nate story arc'" BOI. That's not even a question! You know you've made a bad poll when not even Ellensays or any of the other Narwhals can defend you. This was raging on for a while, with no sign of calming down.

My banishment
Because of the many polls, a lot of anti-polls reported Ellensays to the GC moderators. There were a lot of anti-polls, so you'd think they would've banned Ellensays by now, right? Wrong. Instead, they banned me. Why, you may ask? According to FALLENUSER001, I made people go to links of offensive and inappropriate memes. I actually didn't find out about the banishment until I saw this comment from LINK_O_NEAL:

"'Where did all of Meme squads comments go? Did he get banned?'" I was so confused, since my comments were still on the website, but then Meme_Machine said the same thing. It occurred to me that the reason why I could still see my comments was because I was still signed in. I signed out, and sure enough, my comments disappeared. I tried making another account, but for some reason, the same thing was happening. I got so mad about this that I even made up a parody of Cee Lo Green's "Forget you" (targeted towards the GC moderators and Ellensays): 

"I see you walking around town with the account I love and I'm like: screw y'all! (ooh-ooh-ooh) I guess the polls from Ellensays just wasn't enough and I'm like: screw y'all and screw Ellensays, if I made more polls, my account wouldn't be pulled. Hey now, ain't that some crap? (ain't that some crap?) Although there's pain in my chest I still wish y'all the best with a: screw y'all! (ooh-ooh-ooh)."

It's super cringy, and I'd be very surprised if you haven't exited out yet just. By the way, LINK_O_NEAL, I saw that poem you made on monday, and it was pretty good. Not great, but good. Also, how are you fitting 300 freaking memes on your phone? There's no way your phone would be big enough.

MartySays's suspension
The narwhals stopped defending MartySays after he started spamming. Also, 0a1s2d3f4g5h made this comment:

"'Everyone, Ellensays has admitted to trying to seem the featured comment through spam. Just check his poll yesterday for confirmation and read the last replies. Also, he has all but confirmed he is using his second account 'boosted' to try and get featured comment. This kind of spam won’t be tolerated. Just please silently flag his post, as he won’t listen to reason. Don’t reply to him, don’t rant as I just did about him. Ignore, flag, and soon he will go away. We must preserve the sanity of the comment section'." This had a huge impact to the comment section and led to a plethora of contacts to the GC moderators and flagging. It also got featured comment.

The next day, Ellensays was banned. After a week of insults, fighting, and people saying that they're leaving (*cough* *cough* Mdomino), the war was finally over, and there was much rejoicing to be had with the anti-polls and the narwhals. As for me, this was my reaction:

After the rejoicing, people decided to never bring up this poll war again, so as not to confuse or scare the newer users. 

MartySays's return
On this wiki, MartySays announced that he would return on December 1. He later said that while he'd still post polls, he wouldn't spam. When he returned, it was revealed that he never actually left at all, but came back with a new account, Heroicash. This is the comment that he made: "'Poll: who here likes stranger things?'"Was he TRYING to get banned? Apparently so, because a couple hours after he posted this comment he got banned again. Look, dude, Stranger Things is a great show and all, but it has absolutely NOTHING to do with Big Nate.

Belligerents
During this poll war, the comment section split up into 2 sides: The narwhals and the anti-polls. The narwhals were all in for polls, as long as they were relevant, while the anti-polls weren't.

These were the narwhals:
 * Narwhal
 * Pazy of Prussia

And these were the anti-polls: Jonathan W.G. stayed neutral throughout the war. In the beginning, he was leaning more towards a narwhal, but after he saw MarySays's true intentions, and all the rude comments from the anti-polls, he firmly stayed neutral.
