Say i'm having a discussion in main chat and i'm talking to someone, i don't really want to add them just to be able to mention their name in a formal manner. However i like the idea of the mentioning. I also though, aswell as highlighting/underlining the mentioned player, but when you click their name, their profile shows up too. That would be pretty cool and wouldnt require a client edit either.
The chatroom actually automatically escapes HTML input for chat messages, so I'm not sure if that can be done. It would depend on if I could bypass that check by using some fancy server command or not.
I think the format for a potential mentions system depends on a happy medium of what people want it to do and what is possible.
