User Tagging.

I know this idea may seem ridiculous, although I honestly feel like if it may be easy enough to implement it can be very useless to everyone in the Sythe community.
First off, when I post on a thread and I'm expecting a reply sometimes I get sidetracked, or sometimes I never expect a reply. I never actually do see replies until maybe 2 days later when I land on the same thread, unless of course it's my own.
I feel as if being able to tag Sythe users in posts would be beneficial.
Say you use the average facebook/twitter method of just adding an '@' symbol, i.e '@Dyfect'. And when that tagging is complete and the post has been added to whichever thread, the user whom was tagged receives a notification of some sort, or even just a simple PM regarding the fact they have been tagged.


I'm aware this would not be an easy task, although for satisfaction of the majority of users I feel it would be a clever update to be made.

Thanks, and I'm open to criticism and non-supporters, just an idea that I'm sure I am not the only would who has thought about it.

Thanks,
Dyfect.
