I've seen many cases of guys trying to be funny with the {you} tag, but instead causing hard feelings.

No, I'm certain you mean it exactly as it sounds, to get exactly this reaction. Feigning "I don't know what you're talking about" doesn't pass the reasonableness test. For my money, it is probably the most pointed and brazen of the [ you ] tag uses on the site, but I don't want to kill the tag just because some users lack subtlety.

The You tag does cause it's share of confusion for new users. (including myself when I first joined a couple years ago) I haven't seen it implemented on any other forum. But once you understand it, you see the humor in it. |

You tag is a member filter for 2 things.
Intelligence and humility. This form is not all about Unregistered

Here is a comment from the member who requested the function years ago.
Plain and simple, your skin is too thin. Honestly... whether you like to hear it or not, I got a $100 that says the offending members do not know you. So how in the world would the comment be specifically aimed at you? In fact.... there are very few members, aside from niche groupings and members that cross the boundaries of distance to make an effort to meet other members. This I know, I have been trying for 5yrs to push the limits and challenges of distance and finances. When you walk out your front door in the morning, do you actively look for such examples? If the answer is no, then treat ninjette.org just the same as you do anything else, a collection of opinions and perceptions that may or may not match yours. FACTs: I requested the [ you ] tag a few years ago (yes there are other forums with that function, I didn't make it up). Upon the first implementation, it was used for some poor attempts at humor (subject to perception). Within 24h of implementation, it was used for its original intent. To further the personalization of the forum overall. As a personable person, when I can address you by your name, then it would be my preference to do so. In time, it has settled into a function that is mostly used for its original intent. When in doubt, log out and re-read the said thread. 99% of the time, your concern will be found unfounded and as Alex says, doesn't pass the reasonability test. Also, when is strongly felt, there is no harm in challenging the TOS violations but sometimes is best handled via PM.

If Alex REALLY wanted to mess with people, he'd code a [random] tag that puts a different name in every time the page loads.

Jeez.. Alex made me re-read all the comments to see which part I said that. When I quote this, then only i see the Unregistered part.
