if you’re asking why the option isn’t available in the user preferences drop down in your screenshot, it is because it is generally assumed that if you post in topic, then you will not want it muted and at least want to see the topic appear in topic lists.

You want to make every topic you post in automatically muted? Out of curiosity, could you go into a little more detail about what situation this would be useful in?

Usually when I post in a topic, people proceed to mention me and reply to me a lot, which gets annoying.
