For those who don't know: 2b2t is a famous minecraft server known for its true "anarchy" configuration. You can do absolutely anything on it. Modded client, x-raying, item duplication. There are no area protections. PvP enabled. It is difficult to leave spawn :)

>You can do absolutely anything on it. As long as that anything doesn't consist of putting anything bad in chat or a sign such as a cuss word like "shit" or building a build or map art that someone may find offensive. If you want to do absolutely anything you need to find a different server.

that's because Microsoft said it would blacklist 2b2t (making the client refuse to join it, or the auth server refuse to auth players for it - a punishment normally reserved for pay-to-win servers but the bar has been lowering) if it didn't ban swear words in chat

What kind of things are you looking for? Reach out to Pixlriffs, he has world downloads of his Survival Guide servers and likely access to the HermitCraft ones, too.

I've already downloaded Hermitcraft. Thank you, I'll check out Pixlriffs. I'm asking because I have some things I'm curious about regarding Minecraft. Have a great day, and I wish you the best with everything you do.

Care to share what you are curious about?

Considering no other server has to ban swear words (ignoring Bedrock partnered servers), I do not believe that happened. The server administration does not care so they are just trying to censor as much as they can automatically so they don't have to manually spend time looking at the server.

There are other servers who are small enough to continue to have actually anarchy and who are willing to require having alternate domains to bypass the blocks.

My friend is trying to gather and organize data related to this, and I just wanted to help them out.

Anonymized chest data, ideally loosely pooled by location. We want to see if patterns show up differently across different kinds of servers.

A heavy automation anarchy server is the perfect kind of messy data for this.

What kind of interesting patterns are you expecting? What is the hypothesis?

Different types of materials will have different first digit distributions in their per chest counts—for a given server type.

Can someone please explain in layman's terms to me what this means? Background: Only heard the name of Minecraft.

Glad I am not the only one who found that title and the subsequent readme completely unhelpful, despite standing up and maintaining a VPS server for my son and friends.

HN is great but sometimes has the ultimate “tell them about the features instead of the reason why you should care/benefits” posts and many people probably miss out on good links as a result.

So shareable cloud saves? Who covers the cost for them?
