Summary
This would make it so that everything typed into the chat would not show up on the players screen. This has multiple reasons for being in-game.

Why add this?
You may be thinking "Why not just mute everybody?". Well, it's a lot convenient to just click 2 or 3 buttons than about 20-30. This would also be useful for popular people in the community such as youtubers and moderators who constantly see in the chat "OMG IT'S (Insert r2da player here)". This is also useful is the chat is being very toxic and for those who don't like the chat covering there screens. So basically here are the three reasons for it:
 * Good for famous people who get spammed in chat a lot.
 * Good for times when the chat is being toxic/annoying.
 * Good for people who don't like chat covering up their screens.

But what about mods?
If an off-duty moderator is on the server and they have the chat muted, they will not be able to see anyone typing inappropriate things into the chat, nor can you get the moderators attention when this happens. So what would happen is a user could go into the in-game menu and press RMB on the moderators name and right beside 'Kick' there would be a button to get the moderators attention and when you press it you would be a given a screen similar to the mod call gui. You would give a reason and on the moderators screen a gui again similar to the mod call gui would pop up, but instead of joining there game you would see the chat again.

If you liked this suggestion, please support it with a kudo. and what if the people abuse to get attention of the mods? its a good idea, but not well executed. its a good idea!
