@guru Well its a standard in Twitter, Facebook, Telegram and other services, even in this forum. Its like the hashtag #, and like other things change over time. I see no issue with that. Human mind can adopt to this, understanding that @xyzvwu does not mean an email address.
Flohack, reading your reply again, I see that you didn't got my point: While flohack@host.domain expresses what it means "flohack at host.domain" (flohack auf/am Rechner host.domain), the term @ flohack "at flohack" (auf/am flohack) is just nonsense. Perhaps the idea is expressing "to flohack", but AT (the symbol @) is not the same as TO. This is just a broken idea, even if it's called a standard. Who invented this, should have used another symbol, like >flohack and not @flohack. You got me?
