>implying it didn't always exist

>>6673738
Someone started it, then more people did it.

Person A would make a post including an implication. Person B responds to the implication, but doesn't have anything to directly quote, so they sum up Person A's post as
>Implying OP isn't a faggot
And argue against it from there. Eventually it got shortened to just
>implying OP doesn't need to lurk moar

>>6673791
>Implying that you're helpful

>implying that you will get actual answers instead of a thread filled with greentext

Because the greentext arrow ">"
looks like the implication arrow =>
used in formal logic, only without the stem.

My impression was that it began/took hold first in /mu/ and then spread out across 4chan. That is how I noticed the development of it, but who knows.

>implying anybody cares

I think it comes from /v/ or something. At least, that's where I first saw it.

>>implyingimplicationsblox

This is kinda funny and natural, but can be annoying when you see like 8 or 9 posts in a row all >implying each other to shit.

>>6673764
>implying there was a time before implications

>>6673829
>Implying it didn't originate on /sp/

>>6673837
>Implying this didn't originiate on /v/

I don't know where it originated but /tv/ is almost unbearable now from it.

I seriously hate it more than almost anything in this world. Wrecks any thread instantly.

>>6673837

>Implying it originates from /sp/

>>6673849
>implying originiate is a word

>>6673861
>Implying a spelling mistake makes that post invalid

i quoted someone like this
> So, how the fuck did this whole implying/greentext thing get started, anyways?

and said something along the lines of
i see you asking a question about a meme and it's origins, but what i'm hearing;
> "i'm new here guis, i need to lurk moar"


the next day the whole 'implying thing was everywhere and my arse grew hueg'

true story

I remember it always popping up every now and then.
Then KABOOM everyone is doing it.

ten times worse when coupled with a reaction image.

A couple of people from /v/ started doing it as a way to imply things using green text, similar to quoting them and then just ragging on them, they just added implying to it and fixed it up a bit.

tl;dr: It was /v/'s fault.

Haha I started this meme actually. I was the first person to do these. Although origianlly it was:
>inferring...

(PS I did it on /hc/, not /sp/ not /v/, not /mu/. You fags were way off)

>>6673938

it started in /fit/ actually where a lot of induction happens.

I was playing Modern warfare 2 the other day and I saw a player with the name >implying, and it was green coloured to boot. Goddamnit 4chan.

Implications are useful to convey meaning in relatively less ammount of words.
But there are people and there are people, the kind that ruin everything by making even implications even longer than the Titanic's movie.

>>6673962
I dunno, I think that's kind of funny. I really don't see why people get narky about memes. I mean, when you think about it, who gives a fuck?

>Implying the PS3 has any gaems

>Infering anyone actually cares

I always read it in a stoic robot voice.

robotbloxxxxxx

>>6673985
Hahaha, I'm not getting narky. It was just annoying getting sniped by some guy with the name >implying
over and over again.

>>6674018
cheers for that braksiski, you've brought a new level of lulz to it for me

>Sometimes, the person they just >implied aren't even impying anything!

>>6674022
What's the syntax on MW2 when someone kills someone else (like, in BF2 it says [killer's name][weapon used][victim'sname], for example)?

>>6674044
>That's crazy! Why would anyone want to do such a thing?

>>6673960

>Implying you're not full of shit and lying on an internet forum some sort of sad attempt at recognition that you don't receive in real life.

Informing someone they are implying something is pointless because they already know they are implying something. It's easier to do that than actually tell them why they are wrong though, I guess. My English is fucking horrible, agh.

>implying anyone can tell you anything accurate about the history of 4chan

>>6674050
I think it's just [killer][symbol of weapon][victim]

>Implying implying isn't a plague because tons of threads are getting overrun by the stupid bullshit

>>6674082
From the dude who posts his Mensa card every 5 seconds? Sheesh.

PS Do you hug it as you lie in bed, drifting off to sleep.

>applying this didn't always exist

>complying with police orders

>implying this thread is dead

What I really fucking hate is people accusing me of implying things that I obviously wasn't. I guess they're just trolling, but still.

>>6674878
>implying that you are not implying

>I'm so cool cause I can greentext

fuck off

>>6674099
>implying people think shit through

I have a confession.

I started it.

I was on /v/ and using greentext way too much, and started using >implying when I couldn't come up with a wittier, more direct way of quoting. I am truly sorry.

It's allright bro, we forgive you.

Everyone group hug!!
