Thanks for the ripcord suggestion!

As far as server/channel mute - believe me, I have tried every option, including your suggestions. It works for most servers but I have 2 that I can't mute no matter what I try.

There's also an issue that there doesn't seem to be any way to mute @ mentions of roles you're assigned to. So if a server admin assigns you to a role and then mentions that role you'll get a notification even if server mute is on and suppress @everyone and @here is on.

I wonder if this is the reason I am still getting notifications on 2 servers. It sounds plausible, as they are game related servers, so quite possible I was assigned a role. I don't recall investigating this, although it is several months ago since I last tried solving mute issue.

This does not solve my mute issue, but great to know that this might be the cause! Thanks for this.

Yeah. You can mute @everyone and @username, but you cannot mute @role. It's really irritating in lots of gaming servers where they assign roles by game rank or something similar.
