First, greentext is generally (although not always) used for quoting. For things that aren't quoting, you want purpletext or yentext. Use the yen character

Third, getting into cultural stuff, partaking in modern mainstream meme culture is generally discoraged, particularly cancerman (wojak and its derivatives) and frogs (pepe, obviously). This is for a bunch of reasons, but to simplify, it's to foster an environment of originality and sincerity.
You're not going to get in trouble for using common slang or anything, but if your post looks like something a soyteen would make, it'll probably end in a post deletion and potentially a ban.

No.153708
>>153706You mean as in what it is used for? Usually when you post in a thread, it gets bumped to the top of the board, making it more likely to be seen. Saging gets rid of the bumping, so you have control over whether or not you want to bump the thread you're posting in. This is commonly used for posts that aren't directly contributing to the topic or helping discussion, basically allowing other threads to have a "higher value" if you didn't really say anything engaging anyway. It used to also get used as a form of protest against threads you don't like (on bad imageboards), either through the user mistakingly believing it would have a negative effect, or just to make a statement.

>>153758It's the default filename format for screenshots on MPC-HC which was unanimously the best video player before mpv and had wide adoption in anime communities, with codec packs like CCCP.
You can change the filename format in your mpv settings, I did that when I switched from MPC-HC to mpv.

>>153701It's great on places like 4chan that have (had) lots of activity and a strong, well-defined culture that got lots of attention from unsimilar communities. You could get plenty out of just lurking and by the time you start posting you're aware of what knowledge and behavior is expected of you so the community can maintain those standards and not get dragged too far from its preferred culture.
It just doesn't matter much here because most of our new traffic comes from adjacent sites so those people already have a strong basis in the culture and the site is small enough to noticeably benefit from additional people posting here.

No.153806
>>153781Disagree. Lurking culture just means that those newcomers who respect the established board culture avoid posting, while those who couldn't care less end up dominating the site.
It's important to push the culture on newcomers, but that should involve a process of trial-and-error on their part, and of correcting (or shaming) them for their transgressions on the part of the established users, not having an unrealistic expectation of them literally not posting at all for an extended period of time.
No.153808
>>153806But the system of shaming can only handle so many people at a time before the ones being shamed are too numerous to really feel like outsiders so reducing that number at all by having people silently see how they would have been shamed is a huge help.
Again, it's something that only really works when you're at the scale that there will always be people in need of correction slipping through so learning experiences are a regular occurrence. At smaller sizes asking questions is more reliable because you can go years without anyone seeing the need to explain what a shab is.

>>153702>i don't know (...) what [sage] is supposed to meansage comes from 2channel; here's the explanation:
https://pmakino.jp/channel5/misc/2chbible.html#sageOn 2ch, it's like this:
-
上げ (age) means
bumping-
下げ (sage) means
not bumping上 (ue) means
up and
上げる (ageru) means
to raise.
下 (shita) means down and
下げる (sageru) means
to lower.
(下げ (sage) can be confusing to some people because they might think that to sage a thread means to lower it, but in the context of image boards, it really just means that a thread is not bumped by a post/posts.)
