How To Fix Sorry, You’ve Been Blocked Error on Discord

My buddies and I have a routine gaming night where we play various games or Dungeons & Dragons. Since we are in separate locations, we rely on Discord for our voice chat, as we are all on different platforms. While Discord is fairly reliable, it occasionally has issues, including the "Sorry, you have been blocked" message. Let's look at how to fix this Discord error.

How to fix the Discord 'Sorry, you have been blocked' Message

Unfortunately, there seems to be one real solution to getting around the "Sorry, you have been Blocked message" on Discord, which is to use the mobile Discord app. The error seems to be on PC primarily but does not seem to affect mobile users. Until the issue is resolved, you may need to stick to mobile.

One solution with mixed success is to end the Discord program through your PC's Task Manager. Some users are reporting this works for them and solves the problem, but many are also reporting it does not, and it did not work for me. So, you can always try to end Discord with the Task Manager, but don't expect it to solve your problem instantly. Mobile is the surefire way to ensure you can still Discord.
