Edit: Solved! Thank you TDRR!

Okay, so, I might be stupid, if I am, feel free to point it out, but I'm trying to join Pika-Giblets, have for a couple years now, small problem though - it needs the testing binary of 2.1.2, and it wont let me download it because that specific binary's page is gone so it auto-errors, but traps me in a loop of asking for the testing binary until I Alt+F4 Doomseeker entirely. I thought it was a common issue, but I see people joining it on occasion so I know it still exists somewhere. If there's no hope, let me know now so I can unfavorite it, thanks for reading!

That's not a testing binary. That's a MASSIVELY outdated Zandronum version. That version came out 9 years ago, and has been superseded twice, once by 3.0, then by 3.1.
I would advise just not bothering with that server. You can join it, but you'll have to download that version by hand.

Thank you so much! I was wondering what the issue was for the longest time, glad to hear it's just an outdated version of Zandronum.
