Author Topic: [TECHNICAL] Address someone directly (Read 3088 times)

An improved notification/addressing would be awesome!

By implementing something directly before a name it would notify the person someone addressed them.
For example

Code: [Select]

[@]Ventus Fall[/@] would notify myself someone replied to/messaged me directly, maybe in a New Replies box or such.

That's a cool idea

I noticed you did something similar on your Tea post were you addressed a bunch of people

I think it's a cool idea since using quotes multiple times in one post can be kinda distracting.

Yeah, I recalled I did that years ago too. I like the @ idea, because it is also pronounced at 'at', so @Vortex would be 'at Vortex', you know?

I think that's a really good idea!

Sounds good ^__^ I suggest that we can address more than one people at a time like

Code: [Select]

[@]Ventus Fall, Vortex[/@] So in that way you can have as many people as you want..

Also this is good cuz of the notifications. It would be awesome if we can get this ^.^

Hrm.. I wouldn't mind this option if there were a way to be selective or to be able to disable it (example being in a thread that you no longer wish to participate in).

Just an FYI feature is technical, which means work needs to be done in implementing it, but a feature this complex would probably be better if a plugin for it already existed. If a plugin for it doesn't exist, we may not have the manpower to implement the feature
