Tag members in posts.

ATS,

Thoughts on implementing some sort of feature allowing members to tag other members in a post? I see the new "reply to" text that was added, which brings up the idea of being able to tag members individually.

For example, I see a thread that I know member X will enjoy or might add expertise to...I would reply with my standard post and tag @memberX to notify him or her they were tagged. The member then has a notifications tab (sim to how messages pop up) listing what threads they were tagged in.

This would also aid in replies. "I completely agree @memberX however @ATSmember, not sure I follow"

The option would be toggled on and off so members such as @phage dont receive 43 notifications an hr about cosmic rays.

All in all, I think it can actually stir up further conversation as members will be a bit more engaged.

Sounds like FB to me.

I'm still not over that stupid social media bar on every first page.

Tagging was one of the features i absolutely hated in facebook.. i like to go and do and reply where i please i would hate if i would be "forced" to join in conversation or other without me picking up the conversation i really like to join.

Time is limited..

That would turn this into one big kiss #ss popularity contest.
