@ SYMBOL How to use it step by step HELP

I know how to find the @ symbol.  But I am not sure HOW TO USE IT.  Do I reply and put it at the end...?? the beginning???? Not sure the steps.  Looks like an awesome thing to do but I cannot figure out the sequence. I want to reply to a great post and then what?

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

 

I borrowed this answer from @tansy from yesterday. Smiley Happy

 

It goes in just as you see it @bonnielu.

Fate whispers to her, "You cannot withstand the storm." She whispers back, "I am the storm."

@Preds

 

Did I do that right.  In any case love your signature statement at the end.  I hope I got it right for the @.  And look we can now use colors.  I never saw that before.  Or I just did not look.  And fonts.. did not see that before either.  So much fun.  Made my day.

 Most of the time the name doesn't pop up for me and I have to type it.  When I type it, it doesn't always turn blue either.  I know they go, but it's a little weird.

I think you have to already be in the discussion for it to turn blue @GCR18.

Hmm.  I was wondering why your @tansy didn't turn blue above and sometimes mine don't. That makes perfect sense.  Gold stars for you Smiley Happy

Interesting @preds 

 

Well, you didn't turn blue and I had to type your Nick.

Cloudy and rainy here @Preds

 

Well, that didn't do it either

Edited === it turned blue when I posted, but I still had to type it
