I use pastebin to shutdown servers, but sometimes it doesn't work. I made it print the text of the link in the output, and when it didn't work it printed: https://pastebin.com/raw/PgpqzQfn instead of true.

That looks like HTML to me. Would you mind posting it on Pastebin?
Why are you doing hs:GetAsync("Shutdown for updates")? "Shutdown for updates is not a valid link
you can shut down the server from the games page surely ?

@programmerHere I had it also checking a pastebin link for the reason, but decided not to and forgot to remove that part. I fixed it but im still having my original problem
@royaltoe, Ok, but now that this is not working I'm curious as to why
Your pastebin of the HTTP response shows that pastebin rejected your attempt to fetch the page, CloudFlare (an anti-DDoS provider Pastebin uses) blocked it. This system is never going to work reliably unless you set up your own webserver. But now MessageService is a thing, you should probably just use that if you need more control than using Shutdown All Servers from your game page.
