Ummm no.

>You want to show something to someone
>@someone

Basically not a quote system....basically....you need to quote someone for someone to see stuff.The ones who weren't even in thread by then..how would you quote him? Let say you weren't here fee mins ago...how do I quote you on a thread where no one replied anything?

Nah. It'll be harder to implement than the quoting more than likely, you have to take that into consideration. But gl.

They haven't added this because it will just be abused.

@Lawliet @Z @Caliburn @Jean Grey @Klaus @Flakez @iNotorious @Joker @Gin @Riker @Sir Derp Obito @Annalise @Nefertari

I just tagged all these people just to bug them and to get their attention when I don't really have anything to say. I doubt they will add something like that when trolls will just abuse it everytime they make a thread to get more viewers and posts.

Ay, why did you tag me? REPORTED! you heard me, REPORTED!!!!! YOU MESSED UP WITH THE WRONG MOFO!

OT: This has been requested many times in the past and what has been done about it? Nothing so I highly doubt that this post will change anything.

It's a shame, it's the same reason why Zise won't remove profanity filters. I still think that tagging could work if abusers got a day ban straight up. Would sort out the issue quickly imo.

It would be a nice change. Like lollipop said, it's hard to hunt for quotes to quote specific people in a thread. Even if you do find the quotes, you would then realise that the quote system doesn't even work properly. Some people wouldn't even get quoted. You can message people through PM or VM but it's a long process to do that. A mention system would be an easy way to bring the people's attention to a thread or post.

If someone abuses the system then just give them a ban from using the mention system, as simple as that.

I can see the mention system being useful in the Roleplay. :pkun:

Profanity filters are a must. :| Really.

Anyway:

Do you know a safe plugin for tagging that will work properly and not mess up just like Quote button?

Also what if it doesn't work properly or isn't feasible with quote option? Is it ok to remove the plugin for Quote for tag option?

Are the forums you saw using this option active enough- like more that 50 users? Because that's the point when you start noticing issues with these plugins - higher the number etc?

I'm not saying it's not possible to add - only Zise and V know and can implement it, so wait for their reply. But if it was suggested and wasn't implemented 70% times it's one of the reasons. Rest is V being too busy.

I agree for here, actually. Too much just..

Idk if there's a plugin, it would likely require custom development and integration with the notification system, but at least it would work 100% unlike the quote notification plugin. I'd say it would probably need a new database and it to be connected in with all of the other stuff.

If it runs on SQL, an SQL Database can handle millions of entries. If you do a google search on this, some people have over 800 million database entries with no issues.

>space
Assuming it is such, entries wouldn't be much more than a user id value, the user id of the person that is tagging you a timestamp and a primary automatic increment id. I wouldn't imagine much more would be needed, perhaps thread title/section, etc.

For such small amounts per entry, I doubt it would pose any issue, still, a limit of reading 5 for each person is perfectly sufficient.

>More users
Okay, you've quoted the wrong person and I've only just realised it. xd

Anyway, it would literally be akin the the VM/PM, etc notifications.

I've seen this on another forum and it was plainly annoying. People just started tagging numerous other people just because they could and so that they could gain more views and/or posts for their threads. This in fact comes pretty much down to the concept of going to people's profiles and posting links to your threads, which is considered to be a form of spamming (but one we only punish if the members in questions are clearly annoyed by it and report it).

Then you also have the issue of people whose usernames are that of popular characters or other well known terms of a particular series. Someone like that might accidentally receive notifications all the time just because other members use those names and terms frequently, accidentally tagging those people.

Isn't this what you want basically? Have a way to show someone a thread and make 'em more active?

>Abuse
You abuse tagging mods or admins = ban
Remove the possibility to tag mods and admins?

Am on 2 forums which use this system and I'm yet to see a problem.
And that's an amazing option to have.

I'm on a forum I seldom log in but whenever I do I get some notifications and it's never anything relevant to me. It's probably just the user name that gets me tagged. Nope it hasn't made me more active there. I stopped caring for notifications after first couple of times. :|
