Moderating Chat

To silence unruly or problematic chatters simply click on the name in the chat feed and the option to mute them will appear. Once muted no other chat participants will hear their commentary.  They will simply be chatting to themselves in a void. Once muted, they cannot be unmuted, so this feature should be used judiciously.
