    It allows people to 'win' arguments by replying to the person and then muting them so they cannot reply back

    This is a valid point, it's something we should consider.

My first thought is, maybe you can't mute someone for a specific amount of time after you've replied to them?

So say I diss you because the Beatles suck, then I want to bar the door by muting you. I get some pop-up or whatever that's like "Yo, you just commented about how much the Beatles suck, you have to wait a bit before you can mute that dude."

Thoughts?
