^^ On many imageboards putting "sage" (without quote marks) in your email keeps your post from bumping the thread. It originated in Japan, it's short for "sageru", which means to lower. It's considered a polite thing to do if you're not saying something particularly important, or if you just feel your post isn't worth bumping the thread for.
On 4chan, however, it's taken on another kind of meaning. On 4chan saging is generally used as a sign of disapproval--a way to get the thread towards the bump limit without actually bumping the thread. If someone doesn't like the topic of a thread, or doesn't like the person who started the thread, they may say "sage for ______" in their text box. For example, if you started a pony thread on /co/ and someone was upset about it, you might see them sage the thread while saying "sage for ponies." There's even "sage-bombing" where a large number of sage posts are made in a short period of time to quickly push the thread past the bump limit, ensuring it falls off the board and dies faster. Note that saging doesn't work on all imageboards, and on those it does, it only works if you put it in the email field--putting it in your name, or text, does nothing. |
