There have been random public bans clearly given as jokes.
And the mods have been posting multiple times with capcodes, especially regarding the quality of the board. Roll threads were declared to be the cancer that killed /b/, for example.

>>1880465>reddit usersYou just think everyone who disagrees with you is reddit. Reddit barely knows of the existance of the board, and I think it's fucking obvious here.
>tripfagsI suppose you never saw -pre-forced-anon /b/ then. Using names and tripcodes was commonplace accross the site until freezepeaches anonymity purists flooded in.
And, the identifiable core userbase of /bant/ is what allowed the board to first have memory and then develop actual board culture.
