Follow topics where you are mentioned

You can automatically follow topics where you are personally mentioned. 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 when you are mentioned.
• Mentions will not cause you to automatically follow topics you have explicitly muted.
