History of 2b2t

History of 2b2t is of the most interesting and entertaining that Minecraft servers can have. Over the 10 years of the server's existence, 2b2t has survived as many as 3 backdoors, the Creation of Many bases, the coming of many players. The server has had ups and downs over the years. Players mainly came from 4chan, Reddit, YouTube and other places.

Garry's Mod server
The server was founded after Housemaster's friend was banned from the 2f2f server. In 2009, the server was having issues with long periods of downtime, and it constantly needed resets. The server went down sometime before 2b2t's Minecraft server started in December 2010 as stated by Kalash, due to disinterest, but it is unknown when exactly this happened.

Minecraft 2b2t's first years
In December 2010, Hausemaster and Georgebush420 created the 2b2t server on Minecraft for their friends to play on. They then decide to start advertising on forums such as SomethingAwful, Reddit, Facepunch, Reddit, and 4chan boards: /v/ and /b/, to see how much destruction could be made. The first several months had estimated player counts from 50 to over 100. Hausemaster occasionally teleported to random players to check the progress of his server. He would sometimes give players random items.

Facepunch war


Not much is known about this period other than the fact that the server began gaining popularity around 4chan and Facepunch, whose users populated the server by the hundreds due to the total freedom it offered. Members from different forums raided each other and their bases on the server. Facepunchers wanted to destroy the old system and create a republic. The two groups survived relatively peacefully until April 28 2011, when luke2thebun griefed Camp Facepunch base, retroactively named Greyskull's Last Stand. Chezhead later declared war after denial, mainly due to the suggestion of his advisors.

After start of the war 4chaners began demolish Facepuncher's bases. They also use cheat clients, spies in the forums what gave them an advantage. Seeing the bad situation, the Facepunchers left the server day by day. That's how the leader of Facepunch left. The last group of Facepunchers, located in 2k2k base want to create a New Republic. But 4chaners found base and demolish it fully.

Post War period
After the war, the condition of the newcomers worsened. Spawn was very damaged. Oldfags killed newfags. However, people started building highways to attract more newcomers. After the war, the average player count decreased. Sometimes, only 10 people were playing on the server at the same time. The server was in bad situation and could've died. After version 1.4.2 was released, spawn was seriously injured due to withers created near bedrock, spawning wither caves.

Server resurgence


On April 2013 Valkyria was created. Valkyria was founded when 2 small groups merged together to build a city named Valkyria. Valkyria built its base, which they named Valkyria. They started the tradition of incursions. Valkyria mainly contributed to the appearance of Spawn today. By their actions they destroyed the spawn and made it a hell for newfags.

First incursion


The incursions started from 2013. Nothing interesting was happening at that time. So one of the founders of Valkyria, Hinderjd, came up with the idea of ​​attacking the spawn. All the founders agreed with the idea, except Drewbookman, but he participated in the incursion.

The First Incursion, organized by Valkyria, began in June 2013. It lasted 1 week. First, Hindejd and Drewbookman came to spawn and began preparations. Killing everyone, both newcomers and people from other groups, killing a few wither, they decided to live in the ruins of the legendary 2k2k. They did it because most of the Valkyria participants were from Facepunch. In 2k2k they met Trodam. Sato ordered him not to be killed, but Drewbookman said, "Either you are from Valkyria or we will kill you" and killed Trodam. After that incident, an argument started and finally Drewbookman left the group. After the removal of Drewbookman, chaos started in the group. Everyone was doing something and the group members became uncontrollable. Everyone dispersed and the incursion stopped.

Second incursion
Second incursion is going on August 2013, 2 months after first. It's currently the longest incursion on 2b2t. The incursion started after a popular r/Minecraft post about 2b2t and a IGN video on YouTube where 2b2t was mentioned, went viral. This brought a big wave of newcomers. Dissatisfied with that, Valkyria, whose base had recently been destroyed, decided to attack the spawn again. Fubster built a dirt house, which became temporary headquarters. A few days later, it became a fortress where the Valkyrians could recover. Every week, they killed more newfags. Many were forgiven, but most were killed. But this incursion gave Valkyria new participants and saved from collapse.

Decline
In almost everything in Spawn was destroyed and many people left the server. The people who remained united in groups and mostly carried out peaceful operations. The tradition of killing newfags disappeared for a short time. During this peaceful period, participants began to build beautiful bases, explore the world, and others build roads to facilitate newcomers.

Third incursion
The Third Incursion began in April 2015. The reason was the leaking and destruction of Asgard II. The members of Valkyria were angry that the base was destroyed, so to stop the group from breaking apart, they started the Third Incursion. Valkyria first repaired spawn and erected several obsidian monuments. They also used leftover obsidian from the 1.4.7 dupe from 2013 and glitched obsidian blocks with negative values to build Wrath Outpost and killed everyone who attempted to grief it. Pyrobyte also used his "666 Sword" to kill newfags.

The Third Backdoor
By early 2016, the server's average player count had rebounded over 3 years from 10 players to 50-60 players online at once. However, the group known as Nerds Inc manipulated server admin georgebush420 to give them items and started griefing numerous bases. Because of this, most of the server temporarily left the server around early May. Sometimes, there was only 1 player online, but the player count eventually jumped back up again by the time Rusher made his video.

YouTube popularity
On June 2, 2016, TheCampingRusher upload a "OLDEST SERVER IN MINECRAFT" video on YouTube, which brought a huge wave of newcomers. The server was full of newcomers, which filled the server with chaos. Seeing the situation, Jared2013, whose old participants were not respected for their actions, announced the fourth incursion. Although he had a bad reputation, the old participants joined the invasion.Seeing this situation, the old participants decided to forget the differences and unite against the new ones. Two groups were created: "Team Rusher" and "Team Veteran". Because of the newcomers, the server started seriously lagging. Hausemaster add queue. TheCampingRusher was unable to join the server and offered Hausemaster to sell the server to him, but Hausemaster declined the offer. Of course the old participants did not like it. That's why Hausemaster made it a priority for everyone who joined the server before June 1. Others had to pay $ 19․99 a month to receive priority.

Rusher war
The veterans appointed FitMC as head. At first, they killed newcomers, mostly on highways. It was not effective because there were so many newfags and it was impossible to defeat them all. As a result, they began to take other steps. They started mining all the diamonds near the spawn to weaken the newfags. Then, at a distance of 500 meters from the spawn, they create a wall of lava so that the newfags would not run too far. However, at first they could not achieve great victories. Also Resistance appeared, which consisted of newfags, but they were against Rusher, fighting as a separate force. The founder of Resistance, CorruptedUnicorn, recruited experienced fighters who could easily win battles. Among them was NedaT, who, being a girl, easily defeated the experienced Veterans. He received the rank of "Honorary Rebel". Resistance became famous because they, not knowing the oral law of not destroying the Valley of Wheat, destroyed the hard work of the famous Jaang. This made the Veterans even angrier. Despite this, the Veterans decided to invite good newcomers to help them. For example, one of them created an air dynamite machine that could destroy everything.

The Veterans soon knowed the coordinates of all big Resistance bases. This angered CorruptedUnicorn, it was clear that someone in the group was a traitor. The traitor was NedaT, who was a Veteran spy. Resistance lost all its bases and leave war. That did not end the fight, because Team Rusher still existed. On August 2016 the leaders of the groups met in the castle and started fighting. FitMC, leader of the Veterans, won the battle. On October 22, 2016 TheCampingRusher left the server and the war Veterans won the greatest war on 2b2t.

Fifth Incursion
The fifth incursion also started Jared2013. The purpose was to build a wall near the spawn to prevent newfags from leaving the spawn. Most did not understand the meaning and did not participate in the incursion, they thought that the tradition of incursions should not become nonsense. Very small groups who could not take part in the war decided to join this incursion. But instead of building the wall, they just fought each other for glory. The project was not implemented and the wall was not finished.

Mixed period
After the war, relative peace was restored. People were doing their usual business. Of course, many YouTubers posted videos, but they did not bring many newcomers. During this period the construction of the wall was completed, because steps had to be taken against a small but disruptive newfags. At this time, DoctorRobotix created the 2b2t Wiki on Fandom, which started the history of the wiki.
