Hoi
laßts mich doch meine offiziell net bestätigten Schizo-Schübe ausleben!
Und zu eurer Beruhigung, Wolfgang, Frank, Karl Steinsch** udn Whitie Weißmann sind nur ein paar (und die umgänglichsten ichs, die ich hab).
Würd mich nur in Acht nehmen, wenn ihr Donald Ronald (Verschwägerter Stiefzwilling eines gewissen Präsis) begegnets oder Ed Cetera, vor denen würde ich mich in Acht nehmen.
Bin schon am Überlegen, ob die die ganze Partie nicht amal zu Brotkrumm schicken soll um die dort aufzumischen :-)
habens grad lustig, alle supportzugänge wurden gesperrt, weil wir eine falsche Rechnung nicht bezahlt haben :-) :-)
Donald Ronald and Ed Cetera are not amused at all.
I do not dare talking to them if they are really grumpy...
cheers, Frankgang

Frankly, I have no problem calling him Frank. Da muss man sich halt auch mal an Broadcom anpassen, wenn's einfacher ist. Wolfgang is eh just the way wie der Wolf sich bewegt. Solange wir ihn nicht Loretta nennen ... (n.b. to the mods: this is a totally benign Monty Python reference, kthx).
Sorry, ist Freitag. Also für mich jedenfalls :p

This function is weird in general - so mostly I do not use it....
Only you can describe a faulty function so lovingly! :-D
The function seems to work only in the frontend. Purely "cosmetic". In the backend, e.g. when searching for mentions, you can only get ahead with your old name. Or just look at the sender of the e-mail. Instead of not using the function " mostly", you should generally leave it alone :-o
And if you decide to change your name, you should also write "cheers, Frank" instead of "cheers, Wolfgang" - although the first users have already written to you with Frank... :-D
Best regards,
Wolfgang
Tim

Cross check: I could also not mention "Aslam Khan".
And I can not mention "Frank Muffke" when I search for him. If I search for "Wolfgang Br" I can mention him. @Frank Muffke: What have you done?

I use Opera (essentially a Chrome engine) and IE 11.
I second that the @-mentions List in this software has been an absolute pain in various ways. Typing "@" opens the dropdown. What happens then is seemingly random. Occurrences include:
- The list jumping to names that don't share ANY of the characters. E.g. when I try to mention Michael Lowry, @M gets me an Account called "Technet2096" as the first hit. There is no "m" in Technet! Reproducible at this time.
- The browser freezing (rare, but happened - can't reliably reproduce)
- The scroll bar occasionally causes shorter freezes or collapses the list. Seems to have been more prevalent in the past, but in a Pavlowian conditioning reflex I am not touching that anymore. Couple that with the sheer number of duplicated accounts for the same name, and this is a real pain. It's also a pain even knowing whom to select when you get four, five accounts of the same name. Hm, do I @-mention Michael Lowry, or Michael Lowry, or Michael Lowry, or MichaelLowry2431 (only an example, not his actual names).
- Typing "@" for a non-mention and then continuing to type a sentence, or erasing an "@" with backspace because it didn't find what was looked for and sometimes produced strange list artifarcts on screen often leads to the editor duplicating text, garbling the current line of text, or indenting the line with a number of spaces or tabs or some weird whitespace.
My modus operandi for the @-mentions for quite some time has become to enter as few characters as possible, avoid spaces, type very slowly, and hope for the account to show up in the visible list so I can slowly click on it. In the same fashion my 90 year old grandmother would use a PC - if that PC were rigged with a jar of nitroglycerine wired up to the scancode for the @-sign.
My remote layman opinion is that there are likely just too many accounts for that list to properly handle. The problem is probably compounded by higher latency connections, that's my gut feeling.
Best regards,

The @-mentions function is broken. When one types the @ symbol, a pop-up menu of likely mentions appears but it is not possible to narrow the list by typing additional characters.
