I think it would be a nice feature if we could tag a poster in a thread and it would show up to them in their notifications. I.e. if I said Xuder O'Clam or BearMick they'd get a notification that they were mentioned in a post. Or if I said HHM he'd get flowers sent to his grave stone. Can we incorporate a tagging system?

I remember a forum I was on where if someone quoted your post or "thanked" it, you'd get a notification.

I thought that was pretty neat. Often times when I post, I kind of forget about it. Then I check the thread like a week later and see that a couple of people quoted me and I never responded because I forgot to go back and check.

Someone makes a thread about this every other week.

No they don't.

My mistake. Someone makes a post about it every other week in the "What would you like to see thread".

Better?

I think this is a good idea, although I will say that if you have the Talkatap app on your phone, you can get notifications in this manner.

I'm okay with the idea if various users could be enabled to turn off tag notifications if they so choose.

Every time I go back to a thread I had forgotten about I'm like Jesus why did I post that. I wonder what mood I was in that day.

Link or it's just another teenager with an overactive imagination.

Here's one.

There were more but I think they were deleted.
So you link to a standalone thread that is closing in on being six months old to support your statement that this request is made bi-weekly in the "What would you like to see weekly" thread? Lol, what?

Maybe in future versions of the software. Right now the hack that exist for it is a huge resource leak. I tried to get a "tagging system" going before, and all it did was double the loads.
