Description:
It's simple. When they type "/me" in a post, it changes to their username. Yes, it's live - so it will also change if their username has changed.
Example: Before: /me made this mod After: Gio~Logist made this mod
Ummm what is the possible point to this mod???? I can type my username faster then I can remember the code that will type my username for me!
Does the username get linked to their profile automatically? At least that would be sort of useful I guess even though their username is already hard to miss!

I am just not see how this is useful in any way!
You ok yotsume? You seem almost bothered by the release I can relate, being that I wouldn't use the feature much myself. However, a lot of members used to chatting in other chatrooms and forums enjoy the "/me" code. I've actually seen people post things like "/me is tired" or something along those lines, not knowing that it won't change it to their name.
Anyways, it was also requested by another member and i'm sure people will be able to make use of it. Good point on linking it to profiles, i'll update the plugin in a bit with that feature probably.

Thanks for clarifying its use. I myself have never seen or used the /me code in chat so I was lost here.
Some suggestion to make this really useful. How about some more /codes. For instance: /blog /album /profile or /anything... Be way cool to be able to use a /code to make a link to some specific user feature of VB, Blog, Gallery.

It doesn't need any more codes...
This mod is purely to replicate the "action" function that is in most chat software, origionally from IRC. This forum (vb.org) actually already uses the same feature.
[high]* Stubbed thinks yotsume is a bit ignorant to the feature and probably jumped the gun a bit![/high]

possibly, however he did bring up a good suggestion either way. Maybe gio could release what he said in another thread. A more complete /linking method. I think it would be great to be able to say to a member you just need to go to /blog and it creates a link automatically to the blog. or say you just need to go to pm me and instead I say /pm and it creates the exact pm link to directly pm me.
