@aedia Well, welcome.
It's a bit slow right now.
Want me to show you the ropes?

@Kit sure, I'd appreciate that.

Looks like you've got the @ reference figured out.
@aedia You can link to specific comments, like this...
...by rolling over the comment you want to link to and clicking the little arrow on the right.

@Kit the @ is just like Twitter so I got that right away.
@Kit oooh!

You can see what it's linked to by rolling over it, or by clicking on the little arrow on the left.
You can edit for a short period of time by rolling over your comment and clicking on the down arrow on the left.
Edited comments will have a little pencil next to them.
You can click on the pencil to look at the edit history.

@Kit I like how when you click the arrow on the left it highlights in bright yellow! The little arrow on the left that lets you see what it's linked to, that is. I did an edit... ooh edit history :)

You can star or flag comments from the right side too.
@aedia Nice!
The markup is a little different, too. *word* still italicizes
You can use --- for mistakes strikethrough.
@aedia And if I use the @ note and you're not in the room, it will leave you a chat message in your StackExchange notices.
Sometimes I jokingly use it as a summoning spell, like this:

strikethrough is like this ? I did it :)

@MrHen I stand in the room of chatting and I summon you. Let's talk about irony.
@aedia Sweet, you're all caught up now. Unless @Alennano can think of something else?

@Kit Thank you for the orientation!
