>>5090Well, at a surface glance it would appear that the sage is directed at the poster he is responding to, a way of indicating that his post was not appreciated. However, sageing does nothing to that post and his displeasure is already indicated in the text of the post so it would make no sense to sage at him. You might say that his sage is directed at himself, an admittance that his post is worthless and does not deserve to be seen, but in that case he would simply have not posted it so that can't be it either. So we're left with a scenario where the poster thinks his post is worth seeing and the poster he's responding to is worth responding to but the thread itself does not deserve visibility. It seems most likely, then, that the sage is directed at OP, but it could also be any post except the two described earlier that the poster believes made the entire thread untenable.
So the question stands: Who are you saging?
