Kames, if you answer the same way on the chat as on the forum … Maybe see the side of a ban …

I can answer to anyone exactly how I want.
Anyway, no matter, I’m able to play now.
Thank you for wasting your time.
Perfect.
Can you give the solution?
If I had to guess, the solution was to wait for the chat silence to expire.

The solution was to try again relogging 
One of the solution give by Meteorblade?
Really?
Should I tell you to read again his ‘solution’? Or should I explain you what is a relog?
Try to be smart somewhere else.
I think I didn’t really read the answer, so…
Explain me 
This is NOT a help forum. kames does not have to explain it to you.
But, allow me: They logged out of the game and logged back in. Just like Meteorblade suggested.
Now… quit bumping this thread!
Thank you.

First of all, you’re not a moderator to tell the members what to do and not. Try to be smart somewhere else. People nowadays…
He sugested to “close and re-start the client” - what I did was to logout and to connect to an alt account and to relog to my main account

thank you for contacting us, my name is Game Master Rynmosend and I can understand that not being able to play is annoying.
A silence would indeed not stop you from playing. Due to this, I have forwarded this for further investigation. Sadly this may take a while, so we can only ask you to be patient, while this is being investigated and fixed.
I’m sorry that I can’t have a better response for now, but I do hope that you will be able to play soon.
Should you have any other questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us again.

The issue of not being able to create / join Diablo III games whilst under a chat silence penalty (from any Blizzard game) was first reported in October 2019, so I have no idea why a GM would tell you that, especially when Blizzard publicly acknowledged the bug back in Decemeber 2019, saying that they had their own internal thread about it.
Perhaps you should update your GM ticket and give them this Link which confirms the bug has been known about for 18 months now.
As per my earlier responses in the thread, you have two choices, i.e. wait out the penalty, or appeal it.

A chat silence should not stop you from playing.
However, due to the bug, it does stop you from playing.

Just a clever way for the good parent to punish u but without looking bad ~
Try posting in general forums.
This IS a bug, but they have ignored it for a long time now., and it looks like they will keep ignoring it, or putting it off.
Your choices are:
- Keep trolling the bug forums and get a forum ban.
- Try to bring awareness to the issue in a constructive manner in the general forums.
- Continue being a jerk in chat and get another silence.
- Appeal the silence
- Learn a valuable lesson, and play by THEIR rules.
- Some other 6th or 7th thing.
Flagged as trolling the bug forums.
He did - he broke about 3 Code of Conduct rules while doing it. Seems to be a trend given the post above also breaks the Code of Conduct. He also already appealed and it was upheld. Given the insults that were posted in General forums already, I assume it was well earned.

The ‘intended’ bug was fixed. Thank you, devs!
I’m not silenced. But I am now installing STEAM on my PC.
