Technically, there is no difference. The alt command was created a long time ago for those who wanted to set an alias for their username. For example, LoyceV could add the alias Loyce, which is how people mention it sometimes, to not miss any notification.

Wow. This is Awesome dude. I was wondering something like this which is provided by this Bot. I am satisfied with this.

just tried it, thanks for your sharing guy

Wiwo, If you're curious how naim027 get your bitcointalk UID, just go to your profile page and click the Summary in the left part of the page.

You can check the url such as this:
Where the number in "u=3354911" is your UID.

You're not wrong, but you're not right
Clicking anywhere including Home, Search, More etc. will bring you somewhere though.

Obviously not the most important feature but have you thought about notifying users when they're tagged by "@OP" on their own topics? Would that be difficult to implement?

Hi @TryNinja !. Sorry for posting again. I had translated your awesome thread to my Local board. I will be glad if You add my translation to the OP.

Thank you very much for the awesome things that you build for us. It is very useful. I imagine how long it takes to build this and how much effort you gave.

Unfortunately I didn't really like using Telegram before but it seems like it's become a necessity for me now so I can give this notification bot a try. I just activated the telegram bot where there are two feature available to me at the moment, mentions and new merit. Kinda curious if it works now for me or not but it would be great to give it a try if someone is willing to mention or send me a merit just to clear up these doubts.

By the way, I hope this telegram notification bot can make me more active in the forum just to answer anyone who mention me in a post. Thank you Tryninja for providing this facility.

Scroll up a bit:

We are the same I encountered this kind of issues way back December 7 2021, I have  166 merits in total then I (Merits:170) you received 5 merits from royse777. The. Another (Merits: 172) you received 2 merits from ThePharmacist
But the bot notify me like this.
Instead of 171 but the bot says 172 but it is okay the problem their is the total of the amount of my merits but the person who gave you and how many merits you've recently received it is okay and accurate.
