The Telegram super notifier Bot answers almost immediately, if you are experiencing any delays in receiving notifications, try update your Telegram App.
I have never experienced a bug in the Telegram app. The latest version of Telegram has been running the Super Notifier bot for quite some time now without issues. Any issues experienced can only be a result of network or server problems. And that can be fixed by the user and the owner of the super notifer.

Forum is not a social media like Facebook, X/ Twitter, Instagram ... If you want tag, hash tag, you can join those social media platforms. No offense but it's true to say the forum admins don't intend to build up or change this forum to a social media platform.

Tag, hash tag are more like advertisement trick but Bitcoin forum doesn't need it.

You can use Telegram notification bot and receive notifications with some customize settings.

I understand your opinions on this, but they are precisely your opinions
those who say that the forum cannot become a social network, these very considerations make the forum an obsolete place that no one wants to frequent
I have also seen realtime chats in other forums

This is indirectly defining privacy. This post answers my question to why the @tag doesn't work here in the forum. "It is the other users choice if and how they want to be notified". Unlike on social media where you will be compulsorily notified. Thanks.

Bitcointalk is not some social media platform like facebook, twitter! So you cannot expect it to run like that! You can't just ask why BTT doesn't have reactions like facebook! Because it isn't facebook!

I suggest you to stop complaining and use the notifier bot as everyone else instructed! The bot is quite enough if you really need the tag function. Just look at the two images below! A user used the tag function to mention me, and as you see I was notified...

I can understand how much different the forum culture is for someone who is used to modern social media. I actually don't mind that Bitcointalk doesn't have a proper notification feature and something that would be buzzing and sounding alarms in the background. That's why I prefer LoyceV's notification bot compared to Telegram bots. 

The reason is not because Telegram bots are worse and LoyceV's bot is better, it's because I can check my notifications when I feel like it. I don't get reminded to do it with something ringing on my laptop or phone. When I want to check mentions and quotes, I just load my notifications page to see if there is anything new. Zero distractions.

It wouldn’t make a lot of sense should we have the tags (@,#) work on the forum the same way as we have it on social media. If one gets to use the @function, it often tends to generate all the available usernames that are linked with the user, either as a direct contact or on the friend list.
If mentions work here, it does not need to generate/guess the username upon the user typing, it consumes resources on the server and its not necessary to a forum, especially for an old software forum like bitcointalk. Idk if other forums have that features to aside from socmeds, while tags works on other forum or i say new forum softwares.

The truth of the fact is that though the use of tags doesn't work on the forum, the same way like social media, it still doesn't mean as a user on this forum you can't be notified if you want to and activate it through Gmail or Telegram Supernotifier, which is very common among forum users.

The forum isn’t where you’ve got that (contact or some sort of friend list). So you can imagine the number of usernames that would be generated before you get down to typing out one or having to select. Selection would clearly be out of the picture but it’s of course, unnecessary as it is.
The notifications could be activated using the third party setup available if it matters that much.

But one thing I noticed from my few years of been on this forum is that with the use of "keywords" when drafting the title of a thread is always very important for S.E.O optimization and easy access for users both in and outside the bitcointalk community.

However, the Telegram Supernotifier can be used for multiple purposes, as it can be used to track a User, a post, a board on the forum, a topic or get notified if you are been given merit or mentioned on the forum.

I have used a Telegram notifier bot but I have missed some important notifications from campaign managers before because it doesn’t work all of the time.

The Telegram super notifier Bot answers almost immediately, if you are experiencing any delays in receiving notifications, try update your Telegram App.

Check your settings in your Profile for Notifications and Email, I would assume you should get email notification if you're mentioned like @Floxynice

This notification by email is not that effective compared to the super notifier bot, you would have to visit the last page of the Topics you subscribed to, before you can get new mails. Very exhausting. It's only when you subscribe to new topics that you will get notified all the time.

I seldom put the @ in front of a username, but it has more of a signalling feature meaning: "Hey, I am talking to you!" rather than expecting an actual notification popping on the taggeg user desktop.

Most definitely. I may understand the reason why people haven’t been in so much that is going on in the sh*tty p*ssy social media would come on here expecting the same and are met with a whole different rudimentary to what is acceptable or obtainable are always surprised with how things are here but, it is a forum. It’s got more complex nature than what we have out there on the social media and there have got to be lots of differences.

When you do the signaler and you can only expect that the user have got the BTTSupernotifier bot active to get notified and even yourself @OP, should it mean a thing to you. Other than that, you could always refer back to your earlier comments for mentions and follow ups

I understand that this forum is not like social media. But on facebook, X and other social medias, someone could be mentioned by @tag or #tag. But I have tried to use @tag but it seems that those people doesn't instantly get notified. Myself, I have not been notified before. I can assume that no one mentioned me yet because I'm not popular.
Which tag works fine for the forum to notify people because the forum is too large, it is difficult to track conversations.

Try get you forum account connected with telegram so that you can always get notifications at where you are mentioned from the forum that is all.
You don't need to be popular before you can be mentioned. You are to be mentioned based on other users based on your posts which I believe every users posts are negatively or positively attracted by other users which could prompt to mentioning them on their thread or comment sections.
Be noted that only telegram would give you that notification signal.

It would be nice to have the feature natively built in on Bitcointalk.
As nice as that would be, Cricktor has a point:
But I have tried to use @tag but it seems that those people doesn't instantly get notified.
Why do you demand tagged users be instantly notified and how do you know they aren't?
The day this feature is built into Bitcointalk will be the day people ask for an ignore list. I don't want to give random people access to me all the time.

I have tried to use @tag but it seems that those people doesn't instantly get notified.

It's the other user's choice if and how they want to be notified of what particular actions. And it's also other user's choice to react if and when they want. You have no right to demand a quasi instant reaction whatsoever.

I understand that this forum is not like social media. But on facebook, X and other social medias, someone could be mentioned by @tag or #tag.
And yet you compare it to large (a)social media platforms. Just why? I'm very happy that Bitcointalk isn't like the other large shit-melting pots.

But I have tried to use @tag but it seems that those people doesn't instantly get notified.
Why do you demand tagged users be instantly notified and how do you know they aren't? It's the other user's choice if and how they want to be notified of what particular actions. And it's also other user's choice to react if and when they want. You have no right to demand a quasi instant reaction whatsoever.

Check your settings in your Profile for Notifications and Email, I would assume you should get email notification if you're mentioned like @Floxynice

I rarely tag someone with @ and only if I have a very good reason to potentially have them notified of my tag. If they are, fine, and that's the most I can have. If the other user wants to react, respond or remain silent, it's not my choice to make.

And for the why Bitcointalk doesn't have full fledged built-in notifications: it's likely about potential abuse, ressource load for such a large user base and forum.

Relax a bit and improve on your patience.

I don't use any additional notification tools with this forum. The available tools are enough for me. I can easily track new posts in threads I've interacted with via the Show new replies to your posts link. I don't need my mobile to overwhelm me with a flood of notifications any more than what I get already.

There are other forums using SMF software that have had this feature for a long time so it should be possible for devs to implement it if enough people request it.

I don't think it's an issue with the bot. Maybe it could be your internet connection. Bad connection sometimes causes delays with the notifications. As far as I can remember, I have never missed a notification from any tracked topic or managers or mention, not even once. The only delay I have encountered was when I had a shit wifi connection due to bad weather or when the forum or the bot was down, for some reason.

Btw, if you want you can use a feature that the forum provides which is notify by email. And it's basically the same as the bot, you get instant notification via mail .

Bot isn't the only one using it most of the forum members are using it. I've never seen anyone complain about it. I've also been using it and I can't see problem with it as it works very well. What you are saying i would also say something like that maybe he is doing something wrong somewhere or his device is having problem or his network connection is having problem otherwise there shouldn't be any such problem. We have been using it for a long time but here I haven't seen any problem or any post where anyone has complained about it.

About that I would say you should check if it's ok on your device and network. It would be possible for Devs to implement this but since this is not a problem I don't see the need to implement anything else. i know you understand it, Thank you.

I guess your device failed to notify at the moment, most times I face same issue the problem might be network and if you observe carefully you’ll get the notification after resolving the issue either bad network because that’s only the problem resulting to slow notification from Telegram notifier, don’t know if you’re the only one complaining about this problem but if same complaint is much they might figure out what’s wrong.

It's quite easy just mention the persons name whether direct or via quotes and this would work if they using the supernotifier by TryNinja.

it's not worth it, not to mention we already have a telegram notifying Bot and it's quite on rare occasions it has failed in dropping notifications
And if it occurs it is quickly worked upon.

Except maybe you didn't properly set who and what you need to be notified about.


P.S it is possible to be notified about new threads in board or replies via email

This need to tag have been sorted out by the support of telegram notifications bots, it's most likely one of the fastest way to notify a person that he has been mentioned, all that you need to do is to write the Forum user name of such a person and he she gets notified via telegram instantly.

This doesn't work with the tag that we have on other social media and in fact it possible that if you add @ inclusive of the members user name, it may not get the user notify since addictions of @ becomes a variation to the real user's name and the telegram bot may not pick the parameter with such addictions.

Did you use the same notifier we’re talking about here? So far, I haven’t had any issues - just add the names of the campaign managers you want to follow, and the system will notify you whenever they post something new. Or you can just add the Services board. Anyway, if there’s a feature like this directly on the forum, that’d be even better since it would be more stable for sure.

@all, why don't the forum have it's own. Although someone mentioned the notification at the top left. It is not very flexible.
When you want to reply to a post or want to post - then try to pay attention to the bottom left corner. Enable the "Notify me of replies" feature before you post - I guess it will notify you every time someone replies to your post. Maybe just a quote - not a mention, and a notification will go to your email.



I don't know exactly why forums don't have the same advanced notification features as third parties have so far - if forum did, perhaps users wouldn't need such bots. But to meet the needs of users - TryNinja has really contributed to that. Telegram notification bot was one of the great works of his that I know of.

I didn't answer you because I don't see any reason to send me a PM, just as I don't see any point in answering.
Yes, after sending the message I knew it wasn't worth replying because there was nothing concrete. I was beclouded by emotions.

BitcoinTalk forum has a Telegram bot you can use to receive notifications. If you are mentioned somewhere in a forum like Telegram bot then you will get instant notification through the bot. I like the notification system very much because through notification I always get updated news and if someone mentions I can see it at that time. I think this telegram bot is very important for forum users. Because this notification system was not there before, now since the notification system has come, the users of the forum can see everything they have mentioned beautifully. I have not forwarded any new links to you, please join with the links or bot usernames given above.

Obviously your issue here isn’t if the tags work or not, it’s more about the notifications. Surely the forum isn’t like your everyday social media where they are always out for engagements, but the project and those who own accounts on them. The forum works independently of these rules and notifications could be very disturbing if you ask me, that’s if you happen to be everyone’s person of interest.
The forum however has setups for notifications by third parties. You can get notified on telegram by telegram bot following specific process to the setup of a notifier. A lot of users on the forum that finds this to be of interest does use it, I do and if it’s of any importance to you, you can too. Just follow the already suggested link/thread by Hazink.

If you are not too famous in the forum as one of most contributors, or one of historic scammers or similar, it's very less likely anyone in the forum will mention your name, or tag you.

If you are a newbie, each time you log in your account, pay attention on "Show new replies to your posts" and you will be fine to track discussions that you are engaging with.

You don't need to use any bot in this case, but if you want, it's freedom.

I don't see this to be an issues or problems to you because we can always track our records through the bots which i think they have already mentioned it to you, again you will be noticed if you start involving yourself with much discussion regularly here in the forum.
You know lot of people always wish this forum to function like social app where they can easily navigate the site so easily without knowing that all site must not function the same as we may have think, it is very easily to change our mindset and study the forum gradually to know how it works.

Once you use the BTTSuperNotifier_bot, you already attached your UID.. it should automatically send you notification once you get quoted or mentioned but what i don't know is if it works with that "@" but once your name is mentioned anywhere on the forum it should notify you. You can also "trackphrases" i.e any  phrase you want to get notified
for example: if you  track the phrase "P2WPKH" and a random person makes a post containing "P2WPKH", you  will get notified...
To do this goto: /menu>tracked phrases ,you can add new or remove.. you can always repeat the process anytime

@Hazink is correct. Even without the "@" mention, if a user replies to your post with a quote, you’ll still get notified through the Telegram notifier. It’s one of the most useful tools on Bitcointalk, you should try it! There are more features in there beyond what you’ve mentioned.

If you want to get notification when you are mentioned, you need to use @BTTSuperNotifier_bot and give it that command to notify you even without adding the @ or what so ever. As long as your username has been mentioned or you are quoted, you will get notified by the bot.

I understand that this forum is not like social media. But on facebook, X and other social medias, someone could be mentioned by @tag or #tag. But I have tried to use @tag but it seems that those people doesn't instantly get notified. Myself, I have not been notified before. I can assume that no one mentioned me yet because I'm not popular.
Which tag works fine for the forum to notify people because the forum is too large, it is difficult to track conversations.
