Ok, so my server has been down for awhile now, and I have my ports forwarded correctly(My server has worked before).So I am wondering why my server is down for no reason anymore.
So my server has just suddenly stopped working and I am wondering why.

If you have a firewall, Try turning it off, and your anti-virus.

1.My firewall has Blockland unblocked
2.My anti-virus is out of date so that may be the problem, let me try updating/turning it off.

Sometimes when i reinstall blockland my Ip changed so i re forward.

Some routers do not give computers static IP addresses so yours may have changed. Make sure you are forwarding to the correct IP address.

No router gives a computer a static IP.
The computer has the ability to tell the router the IP it wants, if you follow the Static IP guide on portforward.com.
