4channers

The 4channers were the hoards of players who joined 2b2t from its advertisements on 4chan from December 2010 to the first several months of 2011 from the 4chan forums. After the invasion of the Facepunch Republic beginning in April 2011, many 4channers' sole mission was to hunt down every last Facepuncher. The events of the Facepunch War are often compared to the Rusher War. After they declared war on the Facepunchers and won due to decentralized bases and hacking, most departed from 2b2t due to nothing else to do.

It should be noted that 4channers made up a large majority of the player base at the time of the Facepunchers joining and is often estimated to be upwards of 70% of the player base. The 4channers were not one group; they were many players who identified themselves as players from 4chan.

History
In the early days of 2b2t, when it was still on beta, the server initially gained popularity from 4chan, as some of the first official advertisements by Hausemaster was on 4chan. The word "4channer" was originally used for anyone who came from 4chan. These 4channers who wished to play on an online server couldn’t identify with the existing anarchy servers and their admins. So 2b2t, especially for frequenters of /v/ and /b/, was the Minecraft anarchy server of choice. The server began to be advertised on 4chan very commonly, with more and more new players joining. Spawn likely received the first wave of destruction at this point.

The 4channers are thought to be the origin of 2b2t's toxic nature, due to the toxic nature of 4chan itself. They brought the server's social classes (oldfag and newfag) from 4chan, which are still used commonly on the server to this day, as well as the building of swastikas. They are not known to have made any significant bases. The only known 4chan base is Swastika Base, founded sometime in early 2011 or possibly December 2010.

After the invasion of the Facepunchers beginning in 2011 and lead by chezhead, the 4channers formed together against them. The Facepunchers tried to calm the tides of anarchy, which the 4channers were against. They won the war due to their decentralized bases and hacking. 4channer luke2thebun also successfully insided Fort Creationism Corner, a Facepunch base, using an alt (mweorz).

For the most part, the 4channers made up most of the server population when the Facepunchers came along. It is estimated that 70% of the population was from 4chan, while 30% was from Facepunch, SomethingAwful, DeviantArt, and Reddit.
