To clarify: (((dude1818))) becomes dude1818.

What would you want such "tagging" to do? Just link to their user page? I assume not. Send them a notification that you'd mentioned them? But in most cases I'm expecting people will subscribe to discussion threads they post in anyway.

It would be nice to be able to mention someone whose attention you want to gain. If you implemented notifications, tagging users would be useful, like tagging people on Facebook.

@-format as is used in stackexchange-type sites may be a better choice of formatting. I dislike the (((/[[[ formatting for links myself (I'd rather it be two for links and three for images but it's far too late to change that!).

Yeah, I've reached the same conclusion about (((/[[[ myself. Both halves of it. It was originally meant to nicely match the formatting that draw3cards.com uses, but that site has gone the way of the dodo. I agree, if I add tagging it'll be in the form of @username.

I put forward my utter contempt hate and loathing of this suggestion. This isn't twitter, ffs!

Vitenka, I'm rolling my eyes at you.

I think @-tagging would be a useful feature.
