@username Usage

[Admin]

I'd just like to reiterate the usefulness of 1 particular feature of this new forum format that more people could be making better use of. If you are posting in a thread and want to reference another user put an @ before their username and they are 'tagged' and 'alerted' to the fact they have been mentioned and you are talking about them. A common scenario on this and other forums is people say something like "perhaps this is something admin can look into" .... but if 'admin' is not reading every single post he or she will not know about this. Simply put the @ before admin @admin and its flagged up to them.
