PROPOSAL TO END ALL MODERATION "PROBLEMS"
moderation almost always only happens when a user complains
i propose we implement a "mutual-mute" feature
this would make the "problem user" invisible to the complainer
AND
this would also make the complainer invisible to the "problem user"
the mods could make an OPTIONAL moderator-muted-list of users they deemed "inappropriate" so they would be invisible to the public and also invisible to all site members - UNLESS - site members un-checked the OPTIONAL moderator-muted-list
