    Lightbulb two REQuests?

    I don't know if you can implement these, but I do know they are available on other forums.

    1. a "my threads" button in the FORUM submenu. next to the NEW POSTS link. pressing this button would populate a list of every thread that the logged in user has posted in, been mentioned in, or thumbs-upped in.

    2. a tagging system. putting an '@' symbol in the body of text would flag a username. when a person types the username next to the epinota like this @R4N63R. it would turn bold and be a link to that user, as well as sending them a notification like the bat-symbol calling their attention. it seems that there is a mention system as there is a 'mentioned' statistic under my username on the left, but I don't know how it works

    //edit

    it looks like the @ thing does work. the reason why I didn't think it worked is because the user I was trying to mention has a space in his username. how do I mention that user?

    Go to the upper right and click "My profile". The tabs under 'my activity' will allow you to see posts in threads that you've participated in, posts that people on your friends list has made , and your subscriptions.

    I'll have to check on the mentions problem

    I know there is a feature to dig around in the submenus of my profile, but the button on the main submenu is what I use to keep track of all the posts. just hitting 'my threads' shows me quickly all the threads ive posted in but not subscribed to without doing any work at all lol.

    @BigAl205

    did that work? I mean did it send you a notification and add a mention to your profile counter under your avatar?

    //edit

    it seems that it did work -
    Mentioned 1 Post(s)

    Yep, it worked. There is an option to add a semicolon at the end of a username to signify its end, it's useful for people with spaces or emails for usernames. Should I enable it?

    I think it was because I copy and pasted the screen name from your profile instead of typing it. Do you have a forum that does the 'my threads' like you want? If I had an example, I might can figure out how they did it.
