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¥And it turns your post purple!

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.

It's pretty simple:
/qa/ - Post sincerely in sincere threads
/jp/ - Funpost in fun threads
/amv/ - You have hobbies, right?
/seasonal/ - When the weather changes and the mono no aware overpowers your normally resigned demeanor (we've all been there; cherish your ability to feel)
/maho/ - Git gud
/ec/ - Lewd
/megu/ - LEWD
/poll/ - They all stink
/f/ - The future that could have been
/b/ - You probably meant to post this below (unless you have an informed opinion that could improve the IBsphere, in which case

>>153706 You 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.

I'm using this in my mpv configuration. I also had a similar configuration on vlc which you can try to set up too, but I switched over for Memento.

>>153758 It'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.

Someone who torrents anime instead of using streamer sites is far more likely to use obscure video players. It's a blessing.

>>153701 It'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.

>>153781 Disagree. 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.
Anonymous 05/06/25 (Tue) 04:14:14 No. 153808
>>153806 But 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 mean sage comes from 2channel; here's the explanation:
https://pmakino.jp/channel5/misc/2chbible.html#sage On 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.)
