Pretty much how I feel. All that sort of info does is make you anxious and over-think your interactions with other users. "Will this comment add to my M/I/H tally? Should I say it?"

It becomes a quantification of data that isn't necessary, and that, like you touched on in "picking up on subtlety", sort of steps on the toes of self-moderation that Hubski already has.

Fuck that, race to the top I say! Mute is a particular challenge because if you piss everyone off early on, you'll have trouble gaining more momentum for future mutes. A delicate balance not unlike infecting Madagascar.
