You need to wait it out. Global chat bans expire after 8 hours.

@jetosanprime, Give us some details. You can't talk in one channel, all channels, or getting complete site ban?

I get http://i.imgur.com/KtXik.png

as a message when i try to make a new account? 

username: Subiiyme how long am i banned for?

subiiyme

I can still broadcast so i dont think im banned? im very confused

Hmm that message is new; it's likely a global ban from chat in which case it should be lifted after 8hrs.

Send a email to help@twitch.tv and they can check to see if you have an ban in place. A chat global ban shouldn't prevent you from registering a new account.

I don't get a message at all but it seems that my messages aren't getting through to the chat I'm in... weird :/

As it stands it seems as though if you browse a lot of streams but and get banned by a anyone on purpose or accident. You get global banned. This should really get fixed.

iamflawlessbrown the chat system will auto-ban you for certain things, not "randomly." One ban from a chat does not get you automatically globally banned. 

Are you suggesting visiting numerous streams, THEN getting banned from one will global-ban you? If that's the case, I'd love to hear it, and I'm sure chat team could elaborate or fix the problem.

Nitro, try this to see if you're globally banned:

If you are, follow what this thread has said. If you type something in -only- that channel, and it doesn't show up, ask the streamer or a mod to unban you, and see if it works.
