User Mentions - Alert

Post by Tribble »

Ever wanted to know when someone is talking about you? Well now you can. Ask Ronny to implement this feature, and you will know whenever someone mentions your name. No longer will you have to search endlessly through tons of posts to find that one mention. This does it every time - and it sends you a nice, discreet PM about it too. And the best part is, no one will ever know that you know.

And that's not all. Ever wanted someone to know what you said about them? Well this little add-in will let them know. So when you complain - Ronny will be alerted without any extra effort on your part. And every time you thank that Puppi, he will be oh so very aware of it :twisted: We might even be able to get the lurkers on this forum to post, just to get a mention.

You really want that 'Thank you' Button don't you?

A surprising amount of modern pseudoscience is coming out of the environmental sector. Perhaps it should not be so surprising given that environmentalism is political rather than scientific.

Oh I don't need the button - but I do need to annoy that puppi. But on second thoughts - this won't work. I will have to start referring to people by their registered names, and well, that just isn't as much fun.

I agree. People are concerned about the processing power needed for "Recent topics" in a sidebar, but a mod like this is deemed alright? :shock:
