To Sage or not To Sage

I think we can all agree that a post should only bump a thread if it is meaningful enough to warrant the top spot on the thread list. However, it shouldn't be up to the poster, or any /prog/ USER whether or not a post is meaningful. It should be decided by /prog/ itself.

Self-bumping as a choice only encourages shit posters to use sage as a conveyance of their disapproval and nothing more. Not to mention the countless missuses of bumping and sage by competent programmers.

I suggest all posts be sages by default and the /prog/ servers be updated to include functionality that supports autobumping good threads when they need it.

So, people wouldn't be able to bump threads at all?

Correct.

That's the only good thing in your post, but it more than makes up for all the other bullshit.

Ok! Lets see your code OP.

/prog/ servers be updated to periodically ruin good threads
fixed that for you. I suspect that OP is a new poster, otherwise he would have noticed that pattern by now.

Are you all the same person? You are, aren't you.

Also, fuck OP's bullshit.

Threads should only be bumped when information is presented that is important, and it is vital that it is distributed to everyone.  Starting a new thread might be a better idea.

OP, I'll never bump a thread again if a kind javascript friend makes me a script that places sage in the email field. It would also be nice if he made one for the imageboards. I'm just getting started with javascript so I could use an example.
