    I think the problem with muting and blocking is it leaves little recourse to make up

I'm glad it worked out between you two in this thread. I've also had a fair amount of success PMing the person who has muted me in the past. Filter might be a little different... mk and team, is there a way to know when you're filtered? "You are filtered here" or something? Probably more trouble than it's worth. Just a thought.

Since filtering doesn't affect the filtered person's use of the site, I don't think it is necessary. Filtering can be used for benign reasons, and I think displaying it would change that. Hush is similar.

As mute (and block) does affect a person's interactions. I think it is best to make it clear.

I meant to say block... whoops. Does it look the same as mute?

Yes.

sorry I bugged you on this one... I should have just gone and done some READING. For anyone else who hasn't read the mechanics in a while...
