dunno if this the right place to post this, but when i join the server in the corner after a few seconds it starts showing the red ''disconnecting in X seconds'' message ive tried multible times but it always shows up.

also it takes forever for the server to load in

Yo. I had the same problem and I fixed it. See here

TL;DR: Clean up storage space on your PC, clean up your GMod Addons to only those you actually use, try to better your internet connection if you can but that really comes after the whole cleaning up storage space.

I'm not technically proficient on this or anything then, but what I did before I fixed it was I kept typing 'retry' in console and rejoining until I wasn't disconnecting.

A good measure to keep in mind is A. the disconnecting text isn't there (of course), but also B. that the main menu music plays.
