For the last few days I've and many people that have played on the pubs have been experiencing the "Server Shutting Down" message and it counting down and eventually disconnecting. I have gotten this 12 times in the last 3 days exclusively on the Eastern Klei Public Servers. I don't know if this is yet again some exploit but there hasn't been any posted updates that would justify these shutdowns? 

Klei servers reset each time there's an update. So it's probably an undocumented patch? Every time it happens, I have to verify the integrity of my game files otherwise I can't play on servers. My speculation is this is probably to ensure up-to-date players can play the official servers

You rush cc t00 much, maybe Klei wanna you to take a break  lol 

you might be right lol but I recently realized that I'm terrible at the CC fight and it's bruising my ego so I rush him to fight again.

As far as I know, they use some sort of "scaling" for their servers, and when one gets overloaded it moves priority to another. This means your server shuts down to prioritise another. This has once been explained on this forum by a dev, but I'm not sure how to find it. I'll try to search and share it.
 

If you get disconnected without a warning and the server will not be accessible after, it could be this exploit that appeared after the latest update:

The servers just deteriorate with every passing month. I've had multiple instances where a single rollback would just make the server completely unresponsive. Even a simple vote for regen would boot out everyone from the server and make it hanging not allowing anyone to join. It's not the intended design and those tools just make the situation even worse and harmful. At the moment everything is set up for users to experience forceful session termination without any warnings.
