I can only think that maybe the server is trying to "queue" joining players, which would be a cause of some of the server instabilities. I've just been Alt-TABing and browsing the internet while it tries to load in the background. Once I hear the crickets I switch back and it works fine. Well fine, until I crash to desktop again. But this is all just from my experience, I haven't gone through trial and errors with other players so all of this is really just unsubstantiated unless anyone else or the devs can chime in.
