quote originally posted by Nice_Guy: Currently in AB, the closest features available at our disposal to get the attention of a certain member is through Private Messaging or Quoting Someone's Reply. For the former, it may be prone to abuse by unscrupulous members coz the conversation is private and greater effort is required by the admin teams to monitor. As for the latter, it is only limited to the recipient who has contributed a reply previously. So in terms of effective communication, this is left purely to chance as to when a particular member will view an intended thread / post / message. It may take days, weeks or even months to get a reply, and when that happens, members risk being carded for replying to an old thread. Of course anything good may also be misused / abused. Therefore if this feature is to be implemented, it should have a set limit of how many tags can be done per day or per member. Just my 2 cents worth, and pardon my lengthy note. Regards, NG cc: @andyjyneo @wembly [If this feature is feasible, we may be able to draw the spontaneous attention of the above-mentioned bros without having to wait by chance and pray that they drop by Suggestion Forum and chance upon this] |
I am aware of this suggestion, it is a good one and will look at how to implement it but it won't be so quickly inplemented as it involves significant resources on the database and also its a security concern. i am also aware that no other forum has this function (besides FB, twitter etc) and i have doubts on how often it will be used as this can be considered a niche function that it seldom used. (there is really no reason to be looking for another tipster, if there is then use the PM) the only times it can be used would likely be only in GC or suggestions forum
