Also known as a Tag or Username Ping, this is simply mentioning another user in a comment anywhere on Reddit, using the u/ tag. For instance, typing u/llamageddon01 will send me a message and a link saying I was mentioned in that comment. If you're the subject of a conversation in the comments of a post you could get pinged quite a lot, so to avoid this, most people will refer to you as OP instead.
