@George Costanza will eat this up, I give you - User tagging.

Just put the @ in your post, then accurately type the username of the person you want to tag, submit your post, and that's it!

The people you tag will get a notification of it, and all statistics this generates are collected and viewable here:

User Tagging Statistics in "Community" tab in navbar

Yes, I am great. I know I am great.... But dammit TELL ME ANYWAY!!!!

@Skip to my Lew @boedicca @Intense @Midnight Marauder @trlrtrash13

Is there a way to make it so that nobody can tag or mention me, or at least prevent such tags and mentions from notifying me?

Ahhh.... I see how it works...thanks @Infidel and @Midnight Marauder

I don't mind this notification...just the one that tells me when I'm quoted, can I disable that? If not, I'll deal with it, it's not gonna send me completely over the edge!

Kudos for this new feature!
