No, it sends the message that I am an insular and guarded asshole, rather than an opening and welcoming asshole.

If people could see my settings.

Which they can't.

This is the part I don't understand - we already have forever ignore, forever mute, and forever hush. Yet for some reason, "mute for a little while" is seen as some horrendous over-reach.
