Which roles are allowed to mute other users?

[JammyDodger]

I think it may be from TL1 up now to mute a user. Having a quick check with a TL0 test user, the option doesn’t appear in the user-to-be-muted’s profile, and navigating to their Preferences/User tab just gives this:

There is a green tick against TL0 for muting users in Trust Level Permissions Reference, so that may need updating.

they can add to the list a user to ignore

Also, I believe the ignore feature is available from TL2 up (by default)

@JammyDodger

Typically, the Ignore feature is available to users Trust Level 2 and up, though can be tweaked per site with ignore allowed groups. So there’s a chance you either haven’t reached that level yet, or the admins of the site have changed it away from the default.
