If one is limited to three toppings, the obvious choices are mushrooms, black olives, and arugula.

I've been young on the internet and never got banned anywhere, but then my preferred way to interact with forum arguments was always as a spectator. You wouldn't believe the mundane, seemingly harmless topics that would cause a thread to spin out into 20-page behemoths of internet rage in the blink of on eye. A forum I frequented as a high schooler had one that exploded over a literal sandwich. That thread is the stuff of legend.
It's been quite some time since I've seen any of this stuff go down, of course. OT, obviously I'm posting on one now, but I feel like the real heyday of forums in general was over years ago, where they were basically THE place to congregate to talk about whatever the thing was. There are so many other places people can share their opinions now, even/especially on niche topics. Again, certain webcomic forums notwithstanding.

I actually looked up "worst pizza toppings" for this poll and somehow spinach and broccoli were on a list of the 12 worst. Mushrooms I get because I didn't like the mouth feel of them as a kid (fine now if slightly singed), but spinach and broccoli were always good. BTW, 'mushrooms' and 'eggs' replaced 'ketchup' and 'mustard' after looking things up. 3 entries for cheeseburger pizza (pickles for the 3rd) seemed a bit much. Incidentally, cheeseburger pizza without pickles taste fine.
EDIT: Typo fix

I've had broccoli, squash, and zucchini pizza and it is glorious.

Back when I haunted the wizards of the coast forums a 100 years ago mentioning Katanas was a bannable offense because of how vitriolic and stupid the arguments tended to get. Similarly you ended up with really vicious argumetns about psionics rules. Some were genuinely interesting and there ended up being some great discussions/screaming matches about rules and the like. People get passionate about things or just want to troll.
On the subject of their argument I sort of see both sides of it. Gregs argument was that a machine can be optimized in ways that a human body can't, they can have better abilities to calculate and can have bodies that are specifically built for the sport with systems that would give them a clear edge. It's somewhat similar to the steroid argument often used in professional sports.
