Notify me when my username is typed

candlejack

I would like a notification system, that alerts me whenever a user type my name. That should happen before the user clicks the submit button.

You're saying you want to be notified before I hit submit? That feels like a huge privacy violation. I don't want you to know I'm writing to you until I hit submit and decide I want you to know about it.

I think maybe if someone posts @yourusejame notification would be good

Up2Vex Thats already implemented and the default.

I don't understand what the meme is about. Could be that I don't understand or know where it originally came from.

But this did make laugh.

Hmmm... we could create an extension that watches the content of the reply editor and if it finds the phrase "candlejack" it will automatically submit the post after a random amount of seconds without waiting for a click on the "Post Reply" bu-
