Keep or Remove - @User Tagging - Please vote

[Nath]

As promised, vote for keeping or removing this feature.

---

user tagging allows you to get the attention of a PSB member by pretending their username with an "@", the user will receive a notification (and not in their profile) each time this is done.

Is handy, as you point out to bring their attention to a thread or post they may otherwise not notice.

[Bigmandazz]

I think the user is good also

[Smiffy]

I likes it a lot Nath

[Bowlen]

We have user tagging?

[Murley]

Considering I suggested this to deaf ears years ago, yes

[Cam]

It's useful. If it doesn't break anything, leave it.
If people get sandy vaginas over it, hand them a brush.

[Captain Starfish]

What Thomas Crown said, with the exception of it being useful.

Doesn't seem to get a lot of use but it doesn't get in the way, either.

[Rich]

It works very well Nath...

And that helps this granny how?

Just put an '@' before the username

Sorry The easiest way to use it (and there are a couple of ways) is just to put an "@" immediately before the username - but you must spell the username as it is on the forum - that is, correctly. It will notify the user, via the upper right notify section of the forum web page, and also via email (I think) that you have mentioned them. The whole idea is that if you specifically want someone to know that you're calling their attention, they'll know.

Cool. Feature is staying.

Pro version updated, the "@" will disappear once posted and there is a mention tag now available in the reply editor.
