    If you're muted from a discussion, start your own. Then we can all splinter off into a million groups and never have to see each other.

I agree with that, but what if there is personal friction between 2 members of a group? I think it would be good if the mutes were publicly displayed somehow, so if there was someone who the rest of the friend circle wanted to be in the dicussion they could question the muter about it, and if it was some retarded pole-sucking asshat(Couldn't think of a good word so I got one from http://pastebin.com/QEvjy8bz) and everyone was happy for the pole-sucker to be discluded, s/he would be.

Just a possible problem/solution, not saying 'X SHOULD BE LIKE Y DAMNIT" only that it's something to consider. :)
