Mute and Unmute

The Mute command is used mute restrict an user in your group. When a user is restricted, he cannot read or write messages.

Unlike the ban, a limited user can remain in the group.

There is an opened Issue (#63) with a request to provide a time frame as a command parameter.

Permissions

All administrators in your group and unified/ban operators can use this command.

You can use /mute in two ways. One permits you to restrict an user when replying to a message:

/mute (in reply to a message)

or, if the user is in unified/ban's cache, you can insert a username as the command value:

/mute @username

If you have the correct permissions as administrator, the user will be restricted.

This command is defined in the file /Bot/Command/Mute.cs.

To reverse the operation you can use the /unmute command in the same way. Replyng to a message:

/unmute (in reply to a message)

or, if the user is in unified/ban's cache, you can insert a username as the command value:

/mute @username

This command is defined in the file /Bot/Command/UnMute.cs.
