Cannot Connect to Vanilla Arma 3 Servers

[Chocolate 1]

I have removed all of my start-up command line information. I have disabled all expansions in game. I have no additional files added that are not inside of mod-folders. I have verified my game cache.

All of the sudden today (12/14/2013) I can no longer connect to any vanilla servers. I thought at first I might have been banned from Hostile Takeover (I don't know why I would have been, but I didn't understand why I couldn't get in.), but it would seem other unrelated standard Arma 3 servers also will not let me join. Any help would be appreciated. It really is boggling my mind how all of the sudden I would have this issue.

Thanks.

I have been dealing with this issue for over 2 hours, and now I post this thread and go try again it all of the sudden lets me get onto servers. I guess close this thread, but I have no idea why I was being blocked from servers.

I had a somewhat similar issue for a while. Turns out that my issue was that I had disabled the in-game Steam community link. Worked well for me for days, but for no apparent reason it prevented me from (sometimes) booting the game correctly, and (other times) connecting to servers. Re-enabled the in-game community link and it worked. Tried everything before that including a fresh install, which didn't work. Steam was screwing me up.
