MOTD not loading

No, unfortunately, you didn't.
I tried your site in Firefox and still says some unsecure content was blocked.
So, I went out and found an online scanner for you.
This site found 200 (it's limit) pages with "HTTP" links to a Google font.
https://www.jitbit.com/sslcheck/#url=https://neotekgaming.com/
It seems your default theme links to an off site HTTP google font.
It's quite likely that you could find the URL in the theme code and change it to HTTPS. Google now hosts https content in it's entirety. (Most http requests get redirected to HTTPS in fact, which is why google.com worked for you without you typing https. As I stated earlier though, USE HTTPS:// when specifying links in ULX MOTD. ULX by default, when you don't specify, adds only http://, not https://)
Once you fix that mixed mode linking, there may be other challenges. Let's start with fixing that one though.

Thanks for pointing me to the font problem. I [think] I actually fixed it now, ran the scan and nothing came up.
Anyway, it's still presenting me with the same problem, and I do have https:// in the front of the URL.
JamminR:
I don't have a Dev install that I can test. I'd like to see if I do the same on a clean install if I get a grey screen.
One thing I remember about the last time I tried using external site loading was that Gmod didn't like dynamic pages. (That was years ago though)
For instance, you have some fancy CSS or something with that rotating logo at the top of your page.
Are you absolutely certain you had that before going HTTPS?
Also, I know it's not a direct to the rules page, but have you tried just setting your motd to "https://neotekgaming.com/" ?
I'd be curious if even that worked.
When I tried using the full url in the link to that SSL checker page, even the SSL check mangled the url to "http://neotekgaming.com/showthread.php?tid=4"
Either way, to anyone else monitoring this thread, does anyone else here on the forums have a test box they can test to see if they use "https://neotekgaming.com/showthread.php?tid=4&pid=4#pid4" as motd URL if they too get a grey screen?
(It can't be a listen server, you'd likely not see motd)
I'm reasonably sure this isn't going to be a ULX issue, but more of a Gmod doesn't like some html/https issue.

Yes, nothing has changed except the google font stuff.

Did that, no change.
Probably gonna try a forum with the same theme to see what happens.

Alright, I made a simple HTML file with the word "test" in it.
That doesn't load. I'm beginning to think this has to do with the certificate. It's comodo issued so nothing really different about it..
EDIT: Tried site with Comodo certificate and it loads fine.. so confused
EDIT2: Used a different addon and it redirects to "chrome://chromewebdata/" everytime I type in neotekgaming.com. Looking this up comes up with a few things.. mostly from the awesomium site, which is down right now
