How to mention someone in a post...
 

Well im happy this bug popped up, but it did cause some issues. So, from here on out, if you want to mention someone in a thread, you will need to place a semicolon after each screen name.

Old way: Haltech
New way: Haltech;

the @ will no longer show as its caused an issue. To tag / mention another forum member, simply type @ member name ; (semicolon) without any spaces.

Blame me

/me blames @doubleflusher;

wtf?


Always getting blamed.

Hmm. Every time I try to fix the mention list, I get spaces added after each @ and before the member's name.

See http://www.mazdaspeedforum.org/forum/foru...r-list-122948/ for what I'm talking about. When you copy-paste the names from the list, it doesn't recognize it since there is an additional space there.

Bump for less confusion

Ok just to be clear you still use the "@" but now adding ";" at the end

Like this: @lilred; is a foggot.


Tapadatass

Maybe my computer's wonky, but the "old way" worked better for me. I never saw the @, and my grammar-Nazi self is bothered by the semi-colon. Oh well, if it makes the site less glitchy and is convenient for users who do multi-mentions, then I'm all for it!

@lilred;

just testing

What was the actual issue?

@MS3-a(sore)ASS-rex; you're the problem

I was trying to post a code box last night and teabagged the DB a few times.

The code started with @

Kevin disabled the @ for mentions so I couldn't kill MSF again.

fucking @doubleflusher;

@Stangcobra; is still gai.

@Downmented; can't tag

I was hoping noone caught that :)

@Haltech;

Assuming it doesn't work for me because brownie post count fail.

Edit: hm looks like it does work.

Open wide brownie, I gotta load for your mouf

motherfucking @doubleflusher; goddamit fuck

@doubleflusher; wtf

Am I the only one having trouble with this new system? Im doing something wrong but cant figure it out. Haltech;

You still need the @ symbol, followed by the screen name,followed by a semi colon ;

"@" haltech ";" will tag him
tapafuck

Ahh now i see, @Haltech;

Thank you!

There you go :fuckyou:

Man, there are some dumb mthrfckrs on here. If I understood it, you guys shouldn't be having problems with it.

I still blame double pumper though.
