Due to popular demand, and the unpopular inability to actually mention me with the @[username] system in a thread. I figured for newer folks and others that haven't found work arounds, that I should post a thread about it.
Note: This is for non-rule breaking stuff mostly, but can be used for rule breaking stuff (like spam or nudes) too. The Report option is better recommended for that, though.
The most common way to grab my attention in a thread is by quoting me in the thread your wanting to bring my attention to. If I've already posted in it, then simply find my post, select "Reply with Quote" and type what you'd like to say to me. If I haven't posted in it, many folks have found a post of mine somewhere else, clicked "Reply with Quote", copied the text from [quote=DeathBlade: to /quote], went back to the thread they wanted to bring my attention to, pasted the text, and added whatever to it. [Side note: All threads I posted in, I also receive an email for updates on. Though I never actually read them and just delete them.]
If you just want to talk, outside of a thread or topic, all avenues of communication are still available. Whether they are VM, PM, Email, IM contact, report, AF Chat, or some other crazy way of reaching me, like social media or telephone.
If anyone else has a cool work around to bring my attention to a thread, please share.
