I was having an issue all day today on my server. Everyone could log in just fine, but when I (the admin) tried to, my client would hang, and my server would start sending "server doesn't answer" messages to everyone else until the server became unresponsive.
I fixed the problem, and the solution was one of two things:
1) My ENTITY_PLAYERSTATE_PhaelonMax.ent was corrupted. (i deleted it and the problem fixed, but not before ...)
2) A player had logged in with the name Phaelonmax, which created an ENTITY_PLAYERSTATE_Phaelonmax.ent, which then caused a terrible error on the server when trying to load the appropriate player data.
I feel like an asshole for not figuring this out before deleting both files, but this is definitely worth further investigation.
