### Follow topics where you are mentioned
You can automatically follow topics where you are personally
[mentioned](/help/mention-a-user-or-group). If this setting is enabled:
- You will automatically follow topics where you are personally mentioned, but
group mentions and wildcard mentions (**@all**, **@topic**, etc.) will not
affect topic status.
- You will automatically follow topics in [muted streams](/help/mute-a-stream)
when you are mentioned.
- Mentions will *not* cause you to automatically follow topics you have
explicitly [muted](/help/mute-a-topic).
