In your case, they are definitely meant to bump it all the way to the "people".

It is not any forum administrator's/dev team's job to (attempt to) cure your laziness at all.

And opening up the forum for more shit, allowing any user to spam you all the way to hell, no, just no.

The time it takes to implement it (especially, in a 'somewhat' sane way) would not be worth the effort.

Time are better spent on other, more important things, like what the background of the forums are for, such as for example caring about AMX Mod X and SourceMod.

If you want Facebook or YouTube, feel free to go there.

ANOTHER EMAIL? The email address on your account is being used.

Again, your laziness - your problem.

Correct, you should wake up and see that we are in 2020.

Do something, if you want something.

Indeed, EVERYTHING should be improved whenever it is possible to do so.

Implementing @mention's does not qualify as an improvement at all.


But trying to improve the forum alone in order to cure your:

• laziness
• stupidity
• unwillingness to read, open your eyes, et cetera.
  • ... you name it

is simply a waste of time, and and endless game, for anyone but yourself to do.

If you got something real that would actually improve the forum (and not open it up to even more abuse), sure, let's look at it then.

Exactly!
