A few months ago while I was bored watching Youtube videos, I came across one about surviving the notorious Anarchy Server 2b2t. I thought to myself, “I should check it out and see how difficult it is.” Well, 2b2t has a queue line, and if you don’t want to wait the near 24 hours to get in, you can choose to pay to advance your join time. Paying to play is not my style when it comes to already owning the game, so I opted out from that server. I still wanted to check out an Anarchy Server, but didn’t know of any. I decided to ask Google Gemini for a few recommendations and it suggested 0b0t.org.
Upon joining the server, it looked like the video I watched of someone trying to survive the spawn area of 2b2t. With Anarchy Servers the spawn area is a basic pit of destruction, where mobs are standing on a single stone block in the sky which use to be underground terrain. Skies littered with random rare blocks in no particular pattern at all. Then there are the hundreds of Withers flying around killing everything that moves. I personally had never seen anything like that, and I didn’t let it stop me from trying to survive. I will admit, I died “A LOT”, as it’s a gamble where you will respawn at spawn. On 0b0t.org, the spawn radius was 25,000 blocks from center with no TP (Teleporting) in or out unless you were outside the block range. I made a life for myself in the spawn area, managed to set up an underground home, started to repair some of the spawn area, even made a little Safe Haven up top the obsidian layer in the sky.
See, back when 0b0t.org was just a 1.12 server, the max height limit was 128 (actually 127), so at level 127 people created Map Art. Eventually I made my way down the southern region of the server and landed in an already explored area of small destruction. I built a tower as a base, cleaned up the area to make it more home like. Certain Bots were on the server which allowed you to Teleport to them or use commands to receive a Kit. I mostly just used BlasterBot’s concrete kit. Some players on the server would give you a Kit just to help you out, while others would use a Griefing Kit to destroy all the creativity you’ve given the server. Some of the most fun was learning how to Dupe items on the server. 0b0t.org shut it’s server down around the first of to mid February 2026. I hadn’t had enough time to really get into anything major, I was just now getting the hang of duping items. I had to find yet another server to try out….
Enter 6b6t.org, another recommendation from Google Gemini. This server “at first” was no different, a Wasteland of blocks spanned it’s spawn area. Unlike 0b0t.org, 6b6t.org’s spawn area was much smaller at only 5,000 block radius from center. Having played some on 0b0t.org, I navigated 6b6t.org rather easily. I did die “A LOT” before finding a good starting position. Just like 0b0t.org, I made a home for myself in spawn to gather some items necessary for survival. I Survived some player attacks, as 6b6t.org was more populated. Eventually “within a few days” I managed to walk right out of spawn and off to start my adventure in the wilderness. I walked past Withers (who were more distracted with mobs in the game), I didn’t camp anywhere over night, mostly because since there were so many people on, there isn’t a need to sleep. I finally came to a random Villager wandering around outside of his Village. I looked around and found where he came from and saw why he was wandering. Someone had attempted to blow up, either using TNT or a Wither, his Village, so he freaked out and ran for cover. Using a boat, I paddled our way over land back to his Village where I laid some beds down for the survivors, fenced in the area to prevent hostile mobs from coming in, and even repaired the damage done. This would later be the wrong choice of where to set up my base.
I looked around the area, saw more survivors from 2 other Villages near the one I was at. Me being who I am, I couldn’t help but save their Villages too. I eventually made a home for myself there, built a tower to store all my gear, upgraded houses since the houses in the Village were from 1.12 of Minecraft. Just started building more onto the Village, built the Psycho House with Motel, The Addams Family house, various buildings from the “A Minecraft Movie” (including Lava Chicken). I’d go on adventures fighting against the Warden, finding sunken ships, attempting to get loot from Trial Chambers (which I learned were turned off…).
I’d venture back to the Spawn area from time to time to escape it again, harvest rare blocks that were just floating in the wasteland of the Nether Spawn. I’d randomly get attacked from over geared players who would camp out at spawn just to kill new players. Seems people love ruining other people’s experience, but this was Anarchy Minecraft, it kinda is within the name of the game.
While I would have the occasional raid from people coming to my base and stealing items, none of them would grief the base, they’d instead leave signs telling me how beautiful it is, or “nice base”. After spending a month playing on the server, I was becoming bored and would only get on to add a new building to my town, or add more to “Downtown Achievement City” that I was building out in the middle of the ocean. Each day I logged in, I knew any day my base would be destroyed. That day happened yesterday March 12th. I spawned in where I left off from the previous day, 3 Withers were exploding everything around them. Withers don’t just spawn on their own, someone has to build them. I knew this would be it for me and this server now. I quickly killed the Withers, assessed the damage, attempted to repair, but it was too far gone. I did get emotional, I had a baby Ghast I had rescued from the Nether that had always been flying around the Village. Villagers were all spread out in panic. I decided to give out the coordinates to the base and just let people demolish it, because I was done. People don’t like nice things, they’d rather see them destroyed. The whole purpose of Anarchy Servers.
The tremendous downside of servers like 6b6t.org have to be the nobody players that join the server and constantly spam in the chat begging for “gear” or “kits” or crying about wanting help from people. Players (who I imagine are 10 years old) that have never actually played Minecraft correctly, those who just either cheat their way around, or have someone do for them instead of them doing for themselves. I can’t tell how big my ignore list was when I left the server, but I can bet it was over 100 from just a month’s worth of playing. There were kids that seemed to find out their favorite new vulgar term, and think that everyone on the server needed to see them say it hundreds of times in a minute. I had to interrupt a few of them and shut them down. And the amount of misspellings of words or incoherent sentences, oh my god! Also, No, I’m not talking about those who’s first language isn’t English, I’m talking about those who speak English (because I’d ask), but can’t seem to figure out the syntax to properly use. Some childish players were full blown idiots, a TP Trapper would advertise a free kit, the player would TP to them, you’d soon see the death message that X was killed by X using X. Then you’d see it again… You’d even see message like “hay wy you kil mee”, and just on and on and on. What would really annoy me the most were those who would constantly talk about certain subject matter that if were read and proven, would send them to the electric chair. Sometimes it would cause me to leave the server. You never knew if they were just joking with a friend just to stand out, or if they truly were a pedo. The amount of bots spamming asking you to join their owner’s Discord is crazy too.
6b6t.org and other servers like it can draw in people that don’t need to have that type of power, even over a game. Most players using Hacked/Cracked clients often fly around looking for player Stashes, some players love to participate in the Hotspot. Others can use the Hack clients to torment other players on the server as it promotes hateful gameplay, you can tell if a person would do something in real life if they had that capability. Instead of a player earning armor or weapons, they are just given Kits and can decide to nuke the whole server or ruin a new person’s first day. It makes it too easy to spawn in Withers, use TNT to blow things up. It is a very toxic environment, and I don’t recommend it to those who want to remain sane. Granted, some friendships can be made on these servers and some individuals are helpful and nice. The majority of players that go to these types of servers shouldn’t have the ability to even use the internet until they are much older. I know Mojang recently came out with a new Policy for the game to enforce strict community standards, it’s just too bad that 6b6t.org will not be one of those who are forced to follow it.
In the meantime, I had backed up part of my area over to a world using the WorldEdit Downloader, and will probably continue to play that area as a Single Player experience.
