So does it work for punctuation now? @Ka-pi96

Edit: Nope

It worked with my underscore ... not sure why the hyphen is different

cool feature, strange that it worked in vivsters thing with the email address added to it, was it triggering as soon as it seen a complete username I'm just wondering if it would allow someone to post in a way that allowed for wildcards or multi notifications from something

@* would be fantastic for site wide announcements :D
@g*

The match ends with a space or punctuation (hence, why it's not working for Ka-pi yet. It worked for vivsters email, because he had his username followed by ".com" - that period ended the match lookup.

And, HELL NO!!! A community notification would be RIPE for abuse - no way am I doing something like that... :(

Edit: Nope

Not yet - I'm still working on it. Not sure how the underscore works and hyphen doesn't, but I will figure it out...

Ah right so Ka-pi96's thing is terminating after the hyphen making the notification look for @Ka just

Cool feature though if people find a use for it and if it doesn't cause issues when people are trying to super abbreviate the All Terrain Armored Transports from Star Wars! or @@'s!

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.
