Default How to "mention"

How do you mention a user on the site? since the new garagetalk app came out the @username no longer mentions them.

Wanted to mention some admins, a user just joined named Jamie X and is posting spam

There is a mention feature icon displayed when you click "Edit", then "Go Advanced"....but I notice it does not appear to function correctly.

Just tried this and it didn't work. Either with no spaces around username or no spaces inside the brackets.
