Just wanted to let you know I read it! :)

It'll probably take me a few days to figure out how to do this. Lol But super cool!

Cool

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] awesome!!

I really like this. Sometimes I'll forget to quote someone and this would just make it easier if I'm talking specifically to someone

I agree with Ashley. It has been so much easier to be able to just tag someone instead of having to quote etc. It's been a great addition so far!

I'm glad you're all happy with this new feature. 
Just make sure you all have your notifications set right in the tool bar. :)

Sweet

I love this feature and it will make it way easier then quoting every time!
