    That said, muting someone does guarantee that they will not see or comment on your posts -that's pretty huge IMO.

See that just seems obvious to me. What else would it do? But then I believe desperately in extra-strong moderation.

    -come on, you know us better than that by now. This will be an ongoing discussion and we will likely test out solutions and your voice is as strong as anyone's in that process.

No, no. Discussions on site changes tend to be loosely democratic. I was already in the minority when I began posting. Which is why I suggested a small and dissatisfying compromise. Democracy!

    Flag, any suggestions on how to ensure you don't have people replying to you after they've been muted?

Thinking on it. Nothing I can come up with that circumvents mk's problem with my choices moderating someone else's post. Which is a big problem, of course. So. Thinking.
