Guest Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 For a while, I've wished that I could tag users with the "@" symbol. For example, if I wanted Kurkistan's opinion on a Cosmere Theory of mine, I could just write "@Kurkistan" (or something equivalent) in the post, and he would get a ping or notification. That's just one example, but I think it would be very useful in many areas of the forums to have that function. Does this function exist, is it available, or has it been discussed before? Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Dang, it worked. Kurkistan, I see you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurkistan he/him Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) How amusing that you think that I don't already instinctively know when someone posts a new theory worthy of consideration. It's going to be a thing in a bit when the site updates, is my understanding. Edited May 14, 2015 by Kurkistan 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 It's going to be a thing in a bit when the site updates, is my understanding.And here I thought your encyclopedic knowledge was limited to WoBs...learn something new every day.That was a year ago, though. Any idea when the software will, in fact, update? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurkistan he/him Posted May 14, 2015 Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) My thread-knowledge is more spotty. There was a bit there were it seemed every other new theory post would have me as its first reply saying "<url>this thread</url> might interest you" as I recalled older theory posts, but that relies on me staying very very on the ball with quite a larger volume of stuff than just tracking WoBs, so it's harder both to stay abreast and to find again for linkage. That post was only 6 months ago, not a year. If I had to guess, though, I'd say "soon". Edited May 14, 2015 by Kurkistan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully it doesn't suck, but it should give you a notification, which you could set to email you or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
