Is there currently a method or a planned method to @mention groups of people instead of one member, similar to @everyone in Discord My primary use case for this is around specific notifications for Staff or groups like (Otaku).

It'd be cool if we could @Otaku, although what if there's a member named Otaku?

I feel as if this would be a problem.

I'd assume it wouldn't be too much of a problem to rename those members to something like MemberName1 insted of MemberName (so Otaku1) especially if those members haven't been active in 2+ years.

After that it's a matter of adding groupnames to the "not available" list of usernames so that if someone registers for the site they can't choose a group name as their name.

Well, there goes that idea...

Spoiler:

It might be possible otherwise, without the @ symbol, or something.

It would be nice to be able to tag a specific group or group of people.

Whether It be tagging a group of people or one particular group, It can simply be based on keyword filtering.

For example, after the @ symbol, the keyword of "group" (no quotes) can be entered and then tag whatever group or combination of members you like. So @Otaku would be tagged as @groupOtaku and so on for others. This will prevent specific members from being mistakenly Included.
