> A search for vertical 5x5 obsidian/crying obsidian pinwheels was also made, and only 1258 were found, with only 613 within a 25k radius of spawn. There were many more than this in December of 2025, so this is either a sign of other players removing them, or the owner(s) of 2b2t worldediting them all out at some point. I did Nazi that coming.

Speaking of bedrock, apparently just seeing a few blocks of bedrock (the random pattern of bedrock blocks) is enough to reverse engineer the exact location on the server. I saw a bunch of clips of streamers accidentally leaking a secret base location while touring the server.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

It's true: https://www.resetera.com/threads/mojang-requires-minecraft-a... Here's another server saying the same thing happened to them: https://minecraftonline.com/wiki/Mojang_Blacklist_Timeline Here's a mainstream source, though it doesn't have any new information: https://www.msn.com/en-us/entertainment/gaming/15-years-late...

None of those say that 2b2t had to remove swearing.

"Mojang requires Minecraft anarchy servers like 2builders2tools (2b2t), to comply chat moderation."

Do you have a grudge against housemaster?

Someone please create a google-map like view service so that I don't have to download the entire dataset.

2b2t Place is exactly that. https://2b2t.place

It is not possible to zoom in, as far as I can see (mobile, but tested desktop). [Edit] This allows zooming [1].

I don't know anything about this project, but reading the text in the readme I was very pleasantly surprised to discover not a single hint of the dreaded AI voice in there. Instead, a real human voice shining through. Thank you, whoever you are, for trusting in your humanity and your ability to express yourself without the help of the infernal machine.

I agree it's a breath of fresh air!

I was going to ask how this world is not bot overrun, but I saw that instead players need to pay to get access? (Which is probably the only viable way to keep batting manageable). Does it mean botting there is just pay-to-win?

The server often has long wait times due to the number of players trying to join, so you can pay for "priority access" and jump right to the front of the queue.

I tried it with a vanilla client, without cheats. The spawn point was brutal, bed rock as long as you could see, large walls and lava. And other players trying to kill you. Had to try several times. Found enough tree to build a pickaxe... dig down, wait for the night. Desperately running trying to avoid zombies. Found a hidden farm, plundered, but two carrots left, enough to not die from starvation. Managed to get ou…

basically a post apocalyptic minecraft

Does anyone happen to have world data from a Minecraft survival server? Could you please share it with me? It would be great if it has some player history included. I'm trying to gather about 10 of them, but it's not easy.

abyssmc.org was my server and the website has season 1 and season 2 links online while the newer seasons died. I could also get you the earth map with about 100 years of cumulative playtime, the first two seasons maps had much less playtime
