Just means your name was included in a response

The trash can means you can delete the post.

It means that the message they are sending is meant specifically for YOU and usually in response to a message you sent.

I thought it meant that I can delete my comment whenever I want. They don't like it? Screw them and the horse they rode in to.

Now, you're "it."

They have tagged you specifically for a specific comment you made. The@ on their comment will tag them back with your comment.

"...worthless piece of garbage?" Maybe some therapy is in order.

To be tagged simply means someone else has included your username in a post or reply, either because they think you'll find interesting or, most often, because they're replying to something you said.

If you click on the red garbage can, you get an option to delete your own post - which can be useful! It appears on all your own posts and replies.

@ashley44 <this is a tag

The garbage can is there in case you wish to delete your own post; the rest of us cannot see the can on someone else's post

When your tagged in a post that just means someone wants to make sure that you are sent an alert about it. It makes sure you get a notification about the post so you can read it. Tags also inform people of the subject in an OP which means original post.

All questions and responses on this site are a worthless piece of garbage.
