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.

It's has always been in the nature of western culture to act selfishly. This coincides with the nature of the current use of sage, and westerners perception of it as something negative. When you post on 4chan -- any other online community -- the majority of the time you're saying "Look at me!" instead of having any significant desire to share something and better the community.
Why would westerners act in such a self-destructive way however? There are multitudes of things that could be at play here. Things like a lower intelligence (they may not know they're doing it) or simply an inate self-hatred of their race which drives them to harm themselves while simultaneously seeking validation.

Who is "4chan"???

In the early days of 4chan people thought that saging actively pushed threads down the catalog (like a le reddit downvote).
The issue arose with moot and is poor ability to explain (due to autism).
It is just one of the many ways that faggot (sorry for language) ruined this site.

The problem with this logic is that the majority of 4chan is mind-bogglingly stupid. For example, there are a ton of people here just for porn, and when they wander into another board by accident, they're usually not going to look past the first page. They're also not going to understand how this site functions beyond making simple text/image posts. I can almost guarantee you that there's a large percentage of people on this site that don't even know that sage exists. If you know about it and use it, it is essentially a downvote now, because you're preventing the majority of people from seeing a thread anymore (if it's already gone beyond the first page).
