If I mention someone by their username in the forums, does that user receive a notification of this? I had assumed so, and also assumed the reason I never got any “User A has mentioned you in thread B” notifications was because people were only @Riorlyne-ing me in threads I was already subscribed to, so the ‘new post’ notification overrode the ‘mention’ notification.
But earlier this week I saw myself mentioned in a thread I was not subscribed to, and did not receive a notification for that. So my question is, is this normal?
If not, I’d love for this feature to be working. But if this is normal, is there any benefit in “@“ing someone?
