Ive tried by IP and Name
Thisis what I get

Oh, I see the problem. You are not adding the port. It's inconvenient, I know, but it's required to join. The port is 27045.

Change hns.moonshade.net to hns.moonshade.net:27045 and it should work for you.

If you continue to have issues joining, let me know.

I have tried with the port number and also by IP

69.195.141.66:27045

If I just put the IP and click search for games, it responds with server not responding.
I can ping the ip from my computer and I can also ping it by name.

ANd to make sure Im not missing something stupid... This is CSGO right? no special version?

working just fine for me try just going through console (connect 69.195.141.66:27045)

This is what I get using the console

Retrying public(69.195.141.66:27045) ...
Banned by server

Did I get banned? and when / what for? I think I have played 3 times, and 2 of those no one was on

Can you post a screenshot of it saying that? There's no record of you being banned or stored in the banned files. I unbanned you just incase but that's really weird. Try it again

The Connecting to server screen pops up as soon as I type connect (with IP and port number)
I hit esc to get the consol back to get what you see now

hmm interesting ill unban your ip and we'll see from there :-\

all done if you cant join after this you may have some funky setting on or something wrong with your game.

its odd .. just that one HNS server.
The current install I have on my computer is 2 weeks (new laptop)
Dont worry about it .. thank you for checking into it.
Ill stick with the RP server and the others

15 days later

I did some testing with my computer..
went to work and was able to connect. so now I know its not my setup

my IP is 24.158.245.51

Also found out you block VPN usage
