What happens when I mention myself, @princec?
Ah, nothing.

It indeed prunes self-mentions
You get a community that looks weirdly at you for talking to yourself in written formā¦

That sidebar box needs to be moved into the Unread page, as I never noticed this until now I decide to go through the many pages of unread posts.
This is a pretty cool feature, nice job Riven.

Uh :persecutioncomplex:
With the latest update any mention of a username is tracked: the ā@ā prefix or ā:ā postfix is no longer mandatory. Our beloved member āactualā will be the prime victim, I suppose :persecutioncomplex:
The load on MySQL was so high that it corrupted tables, so I reduced the amount of work in the cronjob. :persecutioncomplex:
MyISAM is bonkers.

It has been done! yay. Looks good so far.
Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but my mentions just went from 25 to 23. I would presume that the count goes down when you read a post that mentioned you? However, I canāt seem to get the count any lower than 23. Is there a way to mark all as read? Or to view a list of all of my mentions, not just the latest 5 on the sidebar?
Edit- And while Iām here: is it just me, or is that little āthere are X new postsā message that displays at the top not working today?

Well the site is undergoing changes as we speak. That is probably why.
Also pretty sure Riven will fix the count and a way to mark.

Thatās what I figured. Iām not complaining or anything, just giving some feedback about whatās going on, from the userās end.
It should work now⦠:persecutioncomplex:
Cool. However, my mention count doesnāt seem to be going down as I read the posts listed on that page.
Also, did you mean to leave the rndm() column in?
Yup, but it will be replaced with something better.
There is no (automatic/manual) mark-as-read yet.
Okay cool. I guess the āgoing from 25 to 23ā was probably a result of me paying too much attention while you were still changing how the counts are added up.
Edit- The āThere are X new postsā message is still missing in action. Not the end of the world, just letting you know!
Thanks KevinWorkman, I didnāt even notice it was down⦠:persecutioncomplex:
Just something small, whenever I middle click one of my mentions in the page the My Mentions link leads me to the browser just goes to that page in the current page instead of opening a new tab. I open nearly every in a new tab, itās just a habit of mine so this gets to me. Itās not really a big deal though if fixing it would require lots of work! Not sure if anyone else noticed.
@Riven: Iād like to mention about my mentions. I think theyāre partly wrong because anybody hardly could know about my existence before I registered here in 2009.
This is the link from the previous post and the quote from the link.
⦠I see a tall dark stranger saying āNot invented hereāā¦
Thatās what you get for having a fairly common word as a moniker!
Unfortunately I donāt think there is a trivial way to differentiate such āmentions.ā
There is already code that takes into account post count, last post and first post to filter out mentions, but Iāll have to rebuild the denormalized data for that.
As for notation: it will not play a role.
Slyth2727, the cause is a little javascript trickery, so itās not trivial to solve.
