Not sure if others would thing this would be useful or not.

I am spending more time on Facebook these days because of business stuff, the one feature that I miss when I am posting on my forum is the "Tag" feature. On FB when I want so make sure a person sees the post I "Tag" their name in the post. I find myself on the forum wishing that feature was there. I see quite often on the forum, "I hope or I am sure XXXX will see this and respond" If there was a way we could link their user name and they they could get some type of notification that they were mentioned in the post and a Link to it, I think that would be great.
