[How] can a user be muted? If not, why not?
When I attempt to give back to this community, in the Power Users forum, I find that a specific user is doing their best to absolutely spam it with really low-effort posts. They're not so absurdly low-effort that I consider them to be worth reporting, but I've no interest in interacting with them, and the user's reputation demonstrates that I am not alone.
Similarly, although this might more be the purview for a PU Meta post, I have noticed that very few posts receive much attention in that community, likely for the same reason: wading through it is difficult. [1]
Consequently, am I able to mute them? The sole alternative appears to be to downvote all of the posts I've verified are low-quality. However, that's an awful lot, and I don't want to trigger the malicious action detector, nor do I really have the time to downvote hundreds of posts.
Perhaps, reporting the account is the way to go about this. If so, I presume that the answers shall demonstrate this.
