Yes this is old news. Mute someone and they turn grey to you. Question: When you mute someone and they turn grey to you, do YOU turn grey to the person that you muted so as to let them know that you muted them? Hmmm… check it out and get back to us and salvage this story

Thanks for the info – a great thing to know. I’ve never had to mute anyone, and had no clue. I guess I’ve just been lucky.

So when I log-in to a laggy area
and I see grey people.
Are they all bad people?
ie nasty boys?
and bad girls?
PS I like bad girls, quite a lot as it ‘appens, guvnor.

If you mute everyone in SL who is a jerk how will you get harassed? Come on, someone explain that to me.
All those griefers and drama queens of both sexes work hard to make your SL experience as miserable as possible. They do all that hard work only to be turned into gray go. Just remember the net isn’t just about you!
Who will think about the kids?

You think people need text to annoy others? Prok has had me muted for 3 years and I still piss her off all the time – often without even doing anything.
