Question

Can we have a common @mention tag for heroes rather than individual???

Every time I mark a question for duplicate or report, I tag same heroes, and this makes me feel bad that I do not interact with other heroes. Can something be done?

Answer 1

Maybe...

Explanation:

For starters, you should know that Heroes do not have moderation responsibilities on the site, at least not at the moment.

Heroes started out as mods, but that changed about 1 1/2 years ago. Basically, Heroes cannot merge, edit, or delete questions `->` check out this answer for more info on the differences between a Hero and a mod.

So, if you need help with merging or deleting questions, feel free to @mention me and I'll help you out. You can always @mention a Hero if you want, but they will forward the request to me.

Now, we will eventually expand the ranks of the Heroes--and their responsibilities on the site--so chances are that we will add a common @mention tag or something similar that will allow you to reach out to the Heroes as a group rather than as individuals. More on that soon...

So yeah, a common @mention tag for heroes? That's a definite maybe! :D
