Hey all,
Hope this is the right subforum, if not im sure a mod will move it.
It seems workshop is sort of down for various games. If you look at the workshop its rather...empty.
You can already find some topics about it on the steam community.

Now as valve has not given a reason why or a indication of problems, its hard to say if its just the visual part or that no workshop files can be accessed.
I expect in the latter that we need to run vanilla servers as more and more mods will fail.
In the meantime I ripped out the mods on the TAW pub server.

Also there are already tons of topics about how bad workshop is etc. specially in the server sub-forum. So to avoid having just more places to read about "this issues" i will close this thread now.
TL;DR: Workshop is well known for going down and being not reachable from time top time (specially at the weekend or while sales are going on) since a long time. Lately it seems just to get even worse. If you like to debate about this situation please visit the server sub-forum. Thanks
With "saving your ass" i meant that you can just use it in case when steam workshop has issues to manually download the mods. For ns2 downloading the mod manually doesn't help at all as the mod doesn't gets mounted if the workshop call for it times out.
