Question About the @ Feature

Can someone explain in simple terms how the @ feature works?  I just saw a response @Cakers nd @Burnsite but I have no clue how that works?

 

Thank you.Smiley Embarassed

@Cakers3

 

@Just press the @ symbol and user names pop up.  Otherwise you press @ and type in a user name.

@Cakers3  Now you will get a message saying you were mentioned in a post, by using @   before the poster name.

The person you @  to will see the message in  "notifications" (where the hearts are), and know that you have responded to them.

The @ and then name sends a notification to that poster so that you know they answered you, looking for you or are acknowledging you.
