• Strange Server

I was searching for some vanilla sandbox server to mess with.. I found a classic vanilla server named Garry's Mod like the most vanilla servers. I joined, there were like 7 players with me. I was killing them & stuff when someone with Kleiner model teleported me in the map's skybox and started to spam his mic with some shit. I don't even know if he was trying to say something or just annoy me. I was about to crash the server because he was annoying af when a link box poped up. These that say "Would you like to open this link in your browser?" i clicked no, and again poped up. The server was bugged or that guy did it. The link was a tinyurl link. It got boring and i tried to quit, then i realized that i wasn't even able to quit. That guy started to scream in his mic again he was named something like SnoX45 or something like that. I quit through the console. I tried to find that server again so i can copy the IP but i couldn't find it anywhere. Even in the legacy server browser history. Wtf is going on. I also checked my GMod root file incase some strange files were there again, but thank god nothing changed.
Do tell more. Were you not able to click the Quit button because of the popup with the link?
No, i was able to click it. It just won't do anything.
Is it possible the server was using a near identical website as the regular Escape-menu, only they removed the functionality of the Quit-button? I've been online on some servers where they would use their own custom Esc-menus, going so far as to being able to lock the standard Quit-button away entirely unless the user deliberately prompts the standard menu to show instead. You can bypass any custom Esc-menu by binding a key to the console and just opening the console while in-game, rather than hitting Esc, as this will also prompt the standard Esc-menu to show with the console in front of it. It might be a long guess, but I know for a fact that the Esc-menu can be tampered with.
The server was vanilla idk. Other buttons worked fine like Options button, Quit button didn't work.
