Network Failure Message: 'you have been kicked from this server'

[Scooby Doo Enthusiast]

so I need help. I get the message in the title of this discussion when ever I try to join my favourite unofficial server. I can join any other server but not this one. I don't think anyone else get's it but it's just happened to me.

I load up my ark as usual. I go onto my favourites servers. click connect on the server and it loads up fine. but when it is about to load it says the message. the IP is 85.190.138.216 if anyone else wants to join and try. I haven't been banned I don't think because me and the Owner gets on really well.. and I havent met any of the admins yet so I doubt they'd ban me :). Please help me. If you could talk to the owner if you can join of course, and ask if I have been unbanned and ask him to unban me :). His name is Gazellio or something.. and he has a tribe with Gazelli in the name of the tribe.

Please help me fix this. but it also says I'm in patch 258.53 and the server is in 258.6, but I can join any other non dedicated server that is in 258.6.. please help me. thanks

Have you tryed multiple times? Is it downloading mods while your connecting?
If a server has much mods....and you client have to download all this mods once, then this resuls in a kick from the server (Connect timeout is 60 seconds or something like that, mod downloads needs longer...)

[Scooby Doo Enthusiast]

no. no mods on the server. tried so many times

Have you tried to repair the game in steam?

[Scooby Doo Enthusiast]

okay. but why would that matter for one server?. can you try to join the server. maybe it's a bug. cause before the server was private because of a bug. so yeah. can you try and join.

Because i'm hosting a server myself... some players had your problems and it was fixed by repairing the game in their steam. If some files are corrupt, this can cause such connection problems.

I can't try to connect to this server because i'm not at home atm :)

I repaired my game and it didn't work :(.
