>>20079061there was a war in the later half of 2017 and the first half of 2018 between the /pol/acks and the curious migrants that came from various boards such as /int/, /jp/, /b/, [s4s] and /r9k/(before it was overran by incels) and I even came from /aus/ over on 8ch. the board was founded based on a /pol/ thread detailing how to get rid of random shitposting and election tourism on /pol/, well one thing led to another and hiro gave the green light and then /bant/ was born. after about a year of cross-board raiding, sometimes self-raiding on the part of the tali/bant/ which proved quite effective, and shitposting the /pol/acks relented and left. bantanna was largely used by both factions and was adsorbed into /bant/ culture after the /pol/ack exodus but fell into obscurity after sometime around july 2018 with /bant/-tan's rise due to there being more lewd drawings of her.
