Inaccurate mentions on forum

@JeffreyWay , logged in for a moment to sneak in a series when I saw I had a notification that I was mentioned. In the forum. So I went to the post becasue I couldn't remember contributing to that thread, and as it turns out I hadn't someone named @ rony had (one letter off).

Any chance you have Algolia or some fuzzy search running in the background to check mentions? For that specific use case I'd use exact match.

Have a great day.

The more likely scenario is that the poster accidentally mentioned you at first and then edited their post to correct the mention.

Entirely possible, but as neither of us can actually know or look it up, I thought I’d pass it on to the only person that can.

but you can go to that thread and see if the guy who mentioned you has an edited post.. or maybe just ask him directly
