Tag users in posts

[Renegader]

To tag a user, you have to use @ and the user's name. For example

@Renegader

gives Renegader.

They will get a notification in their alerts once you tag a user.

Cool. I like that feature. It eliminates the need of quoting someone even if it isn’t necessary just in order to alert them. Thumbs up, Renegader ;>

 

[Stone]

Nice feature Renegader. It's like facebook. :]

 

[Ebony Knight]

Lol glad you took my suggestion to heart Renegader !

 

[Rayven]

Poor Renegader is going to have like 3 billion alerts now. Heh.

 

[Ebony Knight]

You forgot to tag him Rayven! lol

 

[Rayven]

You forgot to tag him Rayven! lol

Because I actually like him! Having done the admin thing, I feel his pain

 

[Demut]

By the way, is this feature also affected by the site maintenance?

 

[hexperiment]

lol this is so strange. it's like facebook or twitter now. a way to keep a forum at an edge I suppose. I like this idea

 

[Demut]

Well, I think the Twitter/Facebook comparison is a bit far-fetched. Like several people have pointed out, it’s more of a substitute for quoting especially in cases where the post that you are replying to is short.

 

[hexperiment]

that's true, Demut (lol) but I can't help but compare it with Twitter and Facebook because feature like this is making this forum a step closer to social networking... I have yet to see a forum with such close community that this would be implemented. I know it's quite convenient for keeping a discuss in the thread but there are other uses to this feature

Renegader

test


.......

 

[Demut]

Looks like it works again.

 

[Finalchrono]

I didn't think i'd be using it too much, but i've been using it a lot to reference small amounts of text I need to quote rather than using the actual quote tags.

 

[Fate]

Aww, Why not Finalchrono ?

Awesome feature Renegader thanks for the update and keep up the good work

 

[Rayven]

It is a decently convenient way to alert us to a thread or post if you think it warrants our attention, if not an actual report.

 

[vincent]

[Demut]

What, vincent?

 

[Rayven]

Well, you got my attention vincent so now what?

 

[Stone]

Overuse of the tag system......... vincent!
