Okay, I wanna make sure people see certain things,
but I have no idea how to 'ping' people in order to do that.

I may be mistaken, but I believe you type "@username," in your post (make sure to add the comma).
If you want, you can test it by trying to ping me.

...it...it...it needs a comma after the name? I've been doing pings wrong then. I did not know that! I will use commas from now on.

I was wondering why sometimes when people would do @Lehana and it wouldn't ping me. That is because there was no comma. I learn something new every day.

I dunno if it worked or not though.
Kinds wish they just had a PING button where you push it,
add in the username, then it would code it for you...

Hmmmm nope. Looks like I was mistaken after all. >//u//>; Derp
In that case, I really hope someone answers this question because I would like to know as well...hehe


Lehana, I've done it without adding commas before, and it didn't seem to work either. And I noticed that whenever the admins ping everyone in a post they add a comma after it so...idk

@Uchihariku,

Do you get my ping? I'm starting to get curious about this...

Oh...it didn't work? I'm...disappointed. I was all excited to learn how to make them actually work. So..it just..sometimes randomly works? Most of the time it doesn't?

...can one ping themselves? I didn't ping myself earlier, but maybe with a comma that apparently isn't necessary it would work.

@Lehana,


EDIT: Nope, I didn't ping myself. Disappointing.

It's a fail system

In order for it to work correctly atm, it must be at the top of the message and have a comma at the end. You should be able to ping multiple players just by doing the same (@Username1, @Username2, etc).
