On Discord, we can type something like @Kumorii and it will show up in that person's notifications that you tagged them somewhere. It'd be nice if we could tag BYOND users on the forums and have it pop up in their updates.
I can see this being abused.
In response to Nadrew
So many people would tag Lummox.
If this was to be a feature, it would have to be opt in, default off... Or, you could just page the person a link to the post.
Or you could post on their shoutbox, or yeah, just page them.
So how it works on github, is tagging somebody just follows them to the thread (as if they had posted or hit followed), and they can mute the thread or block the person.

Abuse isn't that bad, and it can be disabled altogether.
