Not to nitpick, but DEFCON ratings go in reverse of that ;)

DEFCON 5 is everything is great. DEFCON 1 is the missiles are in the air.

Thought I wrote it that way, blocking PMs seems pretty nuclear to me

Sorry I misread your DEFCON 5. I thought that meant that they would be filtered from view in global for everyone (total world nuclear war).

That being said, most of that seems accomplishable just by tweaking the existing mute/filter/hush system.

Yes, just we're getting to the point of too many options, which I recall a few of the admins mentioning they wanted to avoid. Plus the added factor of being able to declare DEFCON against people (which is probably a negative, since I don't think the admins want us unnecessarily going nuclear)
