@mention


How do you guys make your username to @mention yourself from other members? Can someone try @thyname and see if it gets blue and able to mention me here? the admin was able to do it, but don't think anyone else can mention me with @ here

I see I can mention some people in the Forums by @ followed by user name (start typing until the blue username shows up, then select it), but not all. And nobody seems to be able to @mention my username.

It's very useful because it notifies you via email when someone mentions a username using @
128x128thyname
Good a time as any to mention millercarbon is in Redmond, just across Lake Washington from Se@le.

@steakster  --- I have tried that. My "someone mentions me" box is already checked. The problem is that my username does not pop up underneath at all (blue) when someone starts typing @myusername. I can easily mention you though. can you try mentioning me?

I don't know what's going on with this feature. My @lowrider57 works about 50% of the time. No problem on other forums.
