sage

mootles got a dirty mouth

like a frustrated old woman

/jp/ uses sage correctly, your point?

But should I pay attention to the date?

Your problem, OP, is that people are using sage. But haven't you ever thought of why the feature exists at all? Why moot still hasn't removed it, a year later?

The problem is not the "sagefags" not knowing that "sage does nothing" or that "sage is not an insult," it's with your perception of a sage. You think it's an insult, so you have a problem with it.

Excuse me, OP. It is considered polite form to sage your own posts in your own thread. Don't worry though, I know you were merely attempting to correct a mistake you made and forgot.

>>7175319
Here comes the metathread

>>7175319
doesn't type properly either

lack of capitalization and punctuation

>>7175326

>You think it's an insult, so you have a problem with it.

because that's what it has come to mean

for some reason, when someone sages a thread it feels like a greater insult that actually saying the thread is bad

but then again, counter bumping the thread causes the sagers to become even more mad and sage again

in the end, it does nothing but keep the thread on the front page. the best thing to do would be to ignore the thread, which would happen if moot got rid of sage.

>>7175333
>using punctuation on a image board

not even the japs do it and they're grammar nazis

all of them

>>7175309
OP, you are the retard who doesn't understand sage. You are the problem that caused the discussion in pictured thread to happen.

You can go back to /b/ /v/ or /a/ and finish your tutorial now.

I still laugh at how 4chan doesn't understand what sage means.

If only I knew moon so I wouldn't have to spend time on a board that imports foreign concepts and then DOES IT WRONG all the time.

Using sage as a way to "insult" someone's post or thread is just completely wrong and a retarded misuse of a good feature that is so popular in sites like 2ch and Futaba. Fuck, iichan and 4-ch do it right. It's just 4chan and 4chan's lame knockoffs that fail at using sage.

The true meaning of sage means that YOUR POST isn't worthy enough to bump the thread. It's ironic, because you think that you're insulting others while you're just, in fact, insulting yourself. Yes, sage can be used when posting a derogatory comment in a thread that you don't want to bump, but posting with just the word "sage" accomplishes nothing but contribute to spamming the board. The trend of replying with the name of a tripfag and sage is even worse, as it accomplishes nothing and only serves to increase the e-penis of whoever you're "attacking".

The sage feature was never meant to serve as an implied insult or general disagreement! Why people started using it that way is beyond me. There are plenty of reasons why one would choose not to bump a thread with his reply. For example, bumping threads with stupid one liner replies should be discouraged and those people should be coerced into using sage instead.

I want to use sage, yet I almost never do it on 4chan because people will jump on me thinking I'm insulting their post or something.

What are you talking about?

>>7175338
Sounds like you've been hanging out on boards that aren't /jp/. And when you come here, you have that perception from those inferior boards. If you were here often, you wouldn't abruptly question the use of sage, firstly because you'd be used to it and secondly, because you'd understand how /jp/ uses it.

So again, your problem is with people using sage and your perception of their use of it, thinking that they're thinking it's an insult, or that it downranks their thread. You say the problem is people don't know how to use it correctly, but you can't even fathom that people can use it correctly - when you see it, it's being used incorrectly, end of story. To you.

Which actually can be true, since I'm saging right now.

People perceive sage as an insult, therefore it is an insult.
Language is given meaning by the way its used and people use it as an insult. Just deal with it.

Welcome the 4chan, OP.

Damn! This thread is a conspiracy! It was done by either a /jp/ outcast or project HAARP.

Fucking cancer killing /jp/

>>7175349
People say the earth is flat, so the earth is flat.

bump

>>7175355
Earth being flat is a physical reality.
A word having meaning is something that changes with the way people use it.

>>7175338
Thats what its come to mean on other boards. Not on /jp/ I almost never bump a thread and no one has ever said anything to me. I go over on /a/ for a little bit and suddenly they are wondering why I am hating on the thread because I'm not bumping it. Learn to stay away from the bigger boards where retards don't know the meaning of sage.

>>7175356
What for?
The thread was already on the top. Not using sage did nothing.

>>7175349

This sums it up really.

>>7175355
Not the same thing. The earth being flat is an external fact and does not rely on feelings for it to be true or false. You're pretty stupid for not seeing the difference there.

What makes "fuck you" an insult? What if it meant "love you"? What makes burping at a meat table an insult in some cultures, but a compliment in others? If someone sees sage as an insult towards them, it becomes that.

Not that I use it that way, but that statement of yours was absolutely retarded.

>>7175352
/jp/ is dead. It can't be killed anymore.

>>7175349
it's just a real shame

i heard that on japanese boards the posters often use sage to great effect to have nice discussions without bumping their topics constantly

which in turn attracts less spiteful "trolling"

sounds ideal

sage to HELL

your all poopieheads

Those that are saging 'correctly', do you really think your posts are not worth bumping the thread?

You have obviously contributed something to thread, like most of the sage posts here, but you still sage.

>>7175338
But I still love you OP.
Do you realize how stupid you are if you cant see the content of post past the email field?

>>7175374
Yep, same thing here. Always get answers like:
"Uuh omg desaging youre post, bump"
"omg y sage a ontopic post r u retarteted?"

>>7175386
Reported.

>>7175384
Depending on which board you go to, sage can be pretty much the default way to post.

I have nokosage constantly in my email field, it's far less tiring than switching between sage and noko all the time.
And it isn't like not bumping a thread on a slow board such as /jp/ is a big deal.

>>7175379
>Not the same thing. The earth being flat is an external fact
Stopped reading there. And you call me retarded?

>>7175399

/jp/'s sage is to report you.

They rarely actually do it, they just say they do.

>>7175437
I'll sageru all I wantu
and you can't killu my japanese spirit or whatever the macro was

"He doesn't want to bump my thread, therefore, he is insulting me. FUCK YOU THE FRONT PAGE IS MINE! BUMP BUMP BUMP!@!! YOUR SO FUCKING MAD SAGEFAGS, JUST UNDID YOUR WORK1!1!!" The selfish OP that thinks he is better than everyone else. Truly a selfish person.

"I want to give other people a chance at the front page, so I will never bump a thread, unless it is an extremely informative comment. I will never bump a thread if it is just a comment that is better off not being posted at all." Person that put sage in his field.
