I was wondering if i was doing something wrong or not:
When you mention someone do you need to type something before their @name?
Ex: Hey @name
or can you just say @name how are you?
I could have sworn that it was making me have a word before it would be an official mention.

Ahh, ok this was a good test. It seems like you dont need a word before it.

Ok check out my post in this thread. I did exactly what I did here above but it isnt a mention. Is it because here I started a thread and there I was responding to one? If I add a word like hello or hey it works. So on the threads I respond to the @name doesnt work, I have to go hey @name. what gives?

I replied to that same person and did a mention and mine worked

Fonts in your attempt of a mention look weird though. Not regular fonts

Oh! Cool - maybe it worked this time! I hope the trend continues. I don't know why it wouldn't work before.
