Alert when mentioned in a post not working

[Tim Hall]

I'm not getting an alert when I get mentioned using the @user_name syntax. I think it's been that way for a while, it's just I've only just got round to doing something about it.

For example, I got a mention by @ozboz in his Raleigh BB thread, but nothing popped up in my Alerts box. The relevant box is ticked in my alerts preferences box.

It may have been added as an edit to the original post. These don't trigger Alerts
Like this @Tim Hall

If you tag someone and mis-spell their name, then go back and correct it, they don't get alerted.

@TimHall ,not @Tim Hall . so ,prob thats why Tim,

That'll be it. Inserting a call-out as part of a post edit does not send an alert.

Cheers,
