Connecting to the server

[Eoscia]

Hi guys! I know I haven't been on the server for a while and it's been even longer since I've visited these forums. In fact, I've never posted on the forum before. Anyways, I can't figure out why I can't seem to join the server. I always get this error message when I press the "Join Server" button:

Failed to connect to server
io.netty.channel.ConnectTimeoutException: connection timed out:

That's why I haven't been able to join in so long, even though I would really like to. I've not been able to find much about what this message is or what to do about it. I'm sorry if it's something obvious or easy to fix or if it was something I should know about that was announced a lot. I'm sorry to trouble anybody, but I would like to go on the server again!
