I've had my ego hurt before and I wanted to mute but then I thought about people who never mute and they are good examples.

I agree. It's one of my very favorite things about stacker. It feels pure. And people here are generally pretty awesome, even when we have different ideas on things. 

Personally, I haven't even run into anything bad enough for me to consider muting them, but if someone was doing something that I truly couldn't stand, I'd just mute them.

I think communities like SN are pretty good at self policing.

Where do we draw the line on free speech on stacker news?
