Is there an option to mute replies to particular posts and comments?

Reddit has this feature and I used to use it all the time. I feel like this might be the reason many lemmings delete their posts after a while. Not like you get bombarded with notifications on here but still. Sometimes I ask a question and once I have a couple of answers I'm "done" with the post. I want to leave it up for others though so muting it would be ideal.
