I don’t mute anyone, i am only dropping my pretty insignificant attention from what they post, with the ignore function.
Another thing besides not responding, and i don’t feel required to respond to anyone ever, is i never ever tell anyone they are being ignored. ( In fact i frequently like posts, when i click thru, and often enough, un-ignore posters. ). And i am perfectly fine with anyone ignoring my posts as well should they so choose.
BTW : In this forum the label the forum creators used is : muting for threads, and ignoring for posters. The mods get to mute posters – with suspensions, temporarily or forever.
