played arma 3 a lot. since alpha. no issues ever. starting about 3-4 days ago i was unable to connect to my typical server. would just get and error saying "you were kicked off" with no real explanation. tried different servers with same outcome.

started digging around and noticed that my player profile, the user id says error instead of the typical string of errors. creating a new profile shows error. deleting profiles still shows errors. used steam to verify files. checks out. uninstalled and reinstalled the game with the same results.

searching for answers did not yield much help.
