* Note: You can also gain or lose Banana Points any time a user with WSO Credits awards you Silver Bananas (+3 Bananas) or throws Monkey Shit at you (-1 Banana). Good luck! ** In the Off Topic forum, silver bananas earned are worth only 0.25 of a silver banana earned elsewhere on the site. This is in order to properly incentivize giving career advice in other forums and encourage respectful discourse in off topic.
