2b2t is an Minecraft Java Edition 1.12.2 server that operates on a map without any resets since its creation. The server's spawn area is notoriously damaged, reflecting its chaotic nature and lack of rules[1][6][7]. Cheating, griefing, violence, and racism are common occurrences on 2b2t[8]. The server gained popularity due to its anarchic and unpredictable nature[9].
As of March 2021, 2b2t is over 10,300 gigabytes in size and has had more than 600,000 unique players[10]. The server has gained significant attention on YouTube, with numerous videos about it amassing millions of views[11].
History
The Minecraft server 2b2t.org was founded in 2010 by an unknown owner, known online as Hausemaster. It was advertised on 4chan and Reddit.[12] Members from different forums launched raids against each other and their work.[1] YouTuber TheCampingRusher uploaded a YouTube video on June 1, 2016, where he played on 2b2t. This caused a conflict on the server known as "The Rusher War". A queue to enter the server was soon added due to the massive influx of new players caused by the video's popularity. Players can also pay $20 to access a separate priority queue for a month.[5]
Since its creation, the server gained attention from the news. Articles were created about 2b2t on Kotaku, Vice, IGN, Newsweek and The Independent.[1][4][5][6][7] In the book Master Builder 3.0 Advanced, in April 2015, 2b2t was described as crazy, that it can get "outright wild," and that the server is a "nightmare wasteland." The book also stated that it is known as "online royalty" among Minecraft servers.[9]
