Re: @mentions is confusing to members

@r-a-y

Here’s an idea. When viewing a member’s page, instead of having a button that says “mention this user” — have it say instead, “post on /username/’s wall” and then have the same functionality that is applied to the @username mention, happen. Thoughts?

Two tweaks I would want to see:

1. When someone is visiting a member’s page then let’s /assume/ the visitor will want to post something that ‘mentions’ that member, and have the resulting posting form already shown!

2. If the above were implemented, then have the default text that gets placed into the resulting posting form ( @username) to still be there, but even if the user deletes it, send email to the member whose page got posted on.
