Tag People
« on: October 10, 2014, 02:22:57 AM »
Wouldn't it be good to tag people. (like in facebook)

Example topic:
I need help pls, my luac dont work.

Reply1:
@Madman knows this problem.

Then Madman gets a notification, like "You have been tagged in a post" or something like that.

Got it?

I looked into this a few weeks ago actually. There is a mod for the forum that will do this, however it looked like it had a number of issues that still needed to be sorted out. I'll keep an eye on it.

I can picture this being abused or spammable. If people had the option to enable or disable it at any time maybe it'd be okay.
I just think maybe some people wouldn't really like getting 50 alerts a day because of it *shrug*

I'm agreeing with Hayley.....That's why the Respect thing was disabled long ago.

What if you were able to block people and prevent them from tagging you?
Or have a limit of how many people you can tag per 24 hours?

that is easy enough to actually do...since doing a time limit can be pulled off with a simple javascript applet or even doing that with ajax instead which imo is a lot better and works with all browsers where javascript can be disabled...and that could cause a minor issue or two for the user in question.

@AJ
I will be sending you a pm shortly about a feature I would like to have integrated and I have VERY clear reasons outlined for this as it is a feature I had in my own clan forums that actually saved our asses on a couple occasions from some very bad stuff. I will explain in the pm.

I like the idea alltogether. But I am a bit skeptical, due to the fact that you could just over spam someone with tags, but as long as you don't introduce the Hashtag feature, I am all in favor of this.

I... can still imagine members conspiring together to ensure maximum spamming. I dunno, maybe they're better than that. Then again maybe not.

Can't help but feel a good old fashioned PM could do the job just fine...
"Hey so-so, there's a lot of people looking for your input in the BlahBlahBlah topic, could you go there and help out?"
Or ya'know... they'd get there eventually anyway...

B-but... It's next gen...

I agree. Still, it'd be cool to see if the community can handle this.

THE D0C APPROVES

Sounds cool, should be added with restrictions like what MadmaN and SWEGTA said.
