Introducing Mentions!

Have you ever wanted to get a fellow member's attention in a thread, but dread having to send a PM to do so? Good news! You can mention users in threads now!

How does it work, you might ask?

Simple, if you use Twitter, you already have a grasp on the concept. All you need to know is how to use an @ sign and the username of the person you're trying to tag. Say, for example I want to tag LG. All I have to do is type [MENTION=70959]LG[/MENTION] in a post and LG will be notified that he has been tagged! This can be done with any user on the forums, and will be kept as long as it's not abused for spam.

Happy Tagging!

Thanks [MENTION=40]Rob[/MENTION] awesome work :)
