Doh, read back a few posts!
Right. Say I have been breaking the rules, calling TEF a mother fucker (I want to make that an achivement btw, do it without getting banned) and he mutes me. Now, if I am also in the middle of a discussion with some fellow gang members, and they are say, asking me a few questions, it's going to annoy me if they don't know I'm muted and continue talking to me, and I can't reply. However, if they did know, it wouldn't bother me as much simply because they wouldn't talk to me at all knowing so, and wait for the mute to end. The point of a mute is to punish people and stop them from responding to others, but nobody will talk to the muted person, therefore he won't need to respond, making the mute pointless.
