But unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work. So, what's the solution?

The Solution

The key to solving this problem is to use the User ID instead of the username. While this might not be the most intuitive solution, it's actually quite simple once you know how to do it. Here's how:

1. Find the User ID of the person you want to mention.
2. Type <@User ID> in your message.

That's it! Now you should be able to mention users in your Discord messages without any issues.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you're still having trouble, remember that you need to use the ID, not the username. If you want to use the username, simply exclude the brackets: @username.

Conclusion

In conclusion, mentioning a user in a Discord message can be a bit tricky, but once you know how to use the User ID, it becomes a lot easier. So next time you're struggling with this issue, just remember these simple steps and you'll be able to mention anyone you want in no time.
