Hello All,

As many of you are aware, the mute feature has been a contentious subject of late. I want to speak on behalf of team hubski. The mute feature isn't going anywhere. There have been some decent suggestions that we will discuss internally, but we won't eliminate it, nor will we ask people to apologize; we're not your parents. Our hope is that we can go back to using the site to share and discuss interesting and provocative content, as that has always been the intent of hubski's continued existence. FYI, I will not be responding to any comments on this post, as my headache grows worse with every comment about muting, and I officially consider the matter closed.

Peace

-Ben
