Is it a meme to use sage all the time on this board or something? I don't understand.

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.

>> No.8184524

Sage means that my post is shitty, controversial, trivial, not worth bumping. Sometimes it also means that the thread is shitty and should be left buried, but this is not always the case, so you should NOT under any circumstances assume that sage is a form of user moderation.

When someone comes in and posts something like BUMP FOR YOUR SAGE, you're basically saying, "I think your post is very important and deserves to be viewed by everyone" The replies are more important than OP's ego.

I'm going to be controversial and disagree with this. Obviously the idea that sage kills threads or whatever is dumb, especially on a slow board like /jp/. However, by using sage and encouraging others to do so you're basically taking part in shit threads without moving them to the front page. As a collective we're moulding the first page(s) into an ideal /jp/, at least in theory. It's almost like bumping is a form of upvoting (I'm sorry--there's no other way to put it) and this is why I think it should be an opt-in rather than an opt-out.

>> No.8184580

>>8184540
It is useful to know when others sage though.
Using sage should just be more encouraged somehow. Maybe an ID/Heaven system like on textboards. I also proposed >>>/img/1320007660/ which might be a reasonable quick fix.

>> No.8184600

>>8184559
It's actually the other way around.

Good threads have good conversations in the back pages, because /jp/ is slow, this means that threads don't die out if you sage them. Therefore, sage is not mean-spirited in slow boards like /jp/.

Front pages usually are bumped shit threads. There's no such thing as a shit thread on the back pages that isn't already dead or on autosage because it caused a massive amounts of replies.

Sage isn't really a BAD thing to use, it lets the poster post something without bumping up the thread. It's supposed to be used as a way of saying "Hey, I want to comment but don't think the entire conversation should be bumped to the front page just for that." Thus the term "polite sage."

Sage is like the default form of posting on 2ch so I end up using it for virtually 100% of posts on 4chan. No reason. Sage isn't supposed to be an insult or anything.

Though I use nokosage instead of regular sage because of all the idiots on 4chan who seem to think it has a negative connotation

Evidence doesn't support your theory. I'm looking at the last page right now and it's full of shit.

>>8184559 said it best: bumping a thread is a form of upvoting. Saging is a form of posting in a thread if you think the thread is too shitty to be allowed on the front page. Most /jp/ users never look past the first two pages anyway.
