Please note that any behavior that can be solved by muting a user, should be solved by muting that user.
Because of this, we generally don't punish issues that are generally not against the rules and can be solved by muting them. Please keep in mind that we do not punish accounts for behavior in private chat rooms or messages - we recommending muting users who send abusive comments/feedback this way.
Muting a user prevents you from viewing their messages and shouts. We recommend muting any users who you do not want to receive any communications from.
PLEASE NOTE: Being muted by a user is not a punishable offense. Please do not report users who have muted you.
