    Okay, I just got an alert saying I was tagged in a post, and I went to the post in question, but it didn't say my name it said "Ashley.S." Is there something screwy with the system? Or is it when you tag someone, it goes to someone who has a similar username as you? Because the post I was supposedly tagged in was the graphics section, and I never go in there. I technically have no interest in graphics, nor do I know anything about them, and yet it said I got tagged in a post. I just thought that was downright weird since I never post in the graphics section and it was Ashley.S. who was being quoted and not me.

    @Ashley: chances are it's a bug in the plug-in

    I guess it omits things after period.
    A similar kind of bug once happened in VB forum for profiles with VBseo activated.

    @Ashley.S: Try reporting it to the plugin author.

    Edit:
    This happened with this post too.

    It was me. I accidently mispelled your name with Ashley.S. So I changed it to the actual name. Sorry for any confusion.

    It's no problem, DarkFX. Like Ash said, it's most likely a bug in the system. I'm not mad about it or anything, I just found it downright weird that the system thought I was the one being tagged and not the other Ashley. Hopefully this is a bug that will be fixed when the next version of Xenforo comes out, that's all I can say. Like I said, I'm not angry at all, the incident kind of confused me more than anything.

    It's not a bug man. I misspelled your name, then edited my post to be correct. The addon "Tag Me" still tagged you because the addon doesn't provide auto-correct as a feature. Simple as that.
