Yep, those are the only two reasons that this could have occurred, KB has special powers or there is a "mole" on our admin team.

insomniasexx or forwardslash can one of you "decent" folks look in to this? Thank you

Looks like you can reply to someone else in a post that you're muted in when looking at that user's comments so long as that user doesn't have you muted. Business logic: the cause of 80% of bugs in code.

You sure it wasn't because we have a mole on the admin team?

We ought to fix this prior to the rewrite launch. What do you think? Is that doable?

Well, I hear if you put cat poop in the mole holes they leave.

Only canadien moles.

It's because I shouted him out. Basically there is a loophole regarding shoutouts & mutes - the "letting the vampire in" situation. It applies to all users. Even I haven't figured out what specifics have to happen or what / where you can reply from.

I was unaware that kb was muted by em when I shouted him out, so there was no conspiracy or mole.

Thanks insom, perhaps we ought to re-consider closing that vampire loop-hole. Or at least making the person shouting out aware of what they're inviting in...
