David.. Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 No, that would be spam heaven. This may help though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makoto Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Groups, in general, would be chaos. A @staff only mention alias might be useful, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon Woods Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 It could be a good feature for a premium member group. You'd obviously need permission settings for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may help though It won't be if it will have an option to disable the notification in Notification Settings, like we have for mentions (Someone mentions me in a post).

Management Charles Posted March 14, 2017 Management Share Posted March 14, 2017 We actually started implementing this a while ago but quickly realized it would be something that sounds good on paper but would drive you crazy in use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aramaech Posted March 15, 2017 Author Share Posted March 15, 2017 Imo it would depend greatly on the type of forum. A site where people attempt to network with other people of various skill sets would benefit greatly from the ability to group people by skills and allow them to tag by group. The idea of people just spamming group tags could easily be dealt with via proper permissions settings and notification settings. It's easy to see how it could look like a recipe for annoyance at first glance, but that's really only a first impression the fades pretty quickly the more you think about it when set up properly. And as a setting that could be disabled in the admin cp, it would offer zero harm and actual potential benefit. That's just my thinking on it tho. e.g. do you think Discord suffers from making this option available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADKGamers Posted June 7, 2017 Share Posted June 7, 2017 I know this topic is a few months old, but I think with appropriate permissions that this would be fine. Yes, it can definitely be abused but this is something we are looking for as well. Makes it easy to tag leadership groups without having to have numerous mentions in a topic. +1 for it to be implemented Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeChristopher Posted July 27, 2017 Share Posted July 27, 2017 its something I use on another through I admin on which uses discourse and must admit its a great feature with the right permissions behind it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
