The mute function is lazy moderation. I have seen this community when it was better. There were more rules and higher quality posts. Now that there are less rules, and the mute button, people can get away with posting lower quality material and not get banned. That leads to a saturation of shitty posts and a lower concentration of high quality posts.
I don't like it that there are people who are willing to filter out the things I say just because it makes them annoyed. I think that it impair's people's perspective of reality to hide the things that others say. I think it doesn't make any sense that it was implemented.

I like being able to mute people who ruin my experience here on b.net. I don't come here to debate. I come here to talk with like minded folks. If someone is gunna make a big deal out of my opinions and nag me to death I will gladly mute them.
