In June 2013, the file size of 2b2t's world map, which is procedurally generated, was reported to be over 500 gigabytes. A subreddit was created by a player on March 25, 2012. Except in fixing game-breaking exploits, the server operator is relatively hands-off in administrating the server. The founders eventually stopped playing Minecraft, though the server remained online due to the large player base that had been formed. Members from different forums raided each other and their bases on the server. The server was advertised shortly after its creation on online forums such as 4chan, Facepunch Studios, and Reddit, whose users populated the server by the hundreds due to the total freedom it offered. fter a while we decided to open it up to see how much destruction could be made and started advertising it on various places on the Internet. There was no main reason or big idea, it started out as any generic Minecraft test server in late 2010 where me and some friends played on to play the game. After being asked by Vice journalist Andrew Paul via email in 2015, the server operator stated: The founders are anonymous, choosing to remain unknown or known only via usernames the most prominent founder is commonly referred to as 'Hausemaster' or 'Hausmaster', who was described as 'a quasi-mythical figure both praised and trolled' by Roisin Kiberd from Newsweek. The 2b2t Minecraft server was founded in December 2010. The basic story is that this guy who ran the Garry's Mod server started a Minecraft server with the same premise – that you can do anything you want – and this was then given to one of his friends, who we know as Hausemaster. In a Rock, Paper, Shotgun article by Brendan Caldwell, 2b2t player James Rustles stated about the server's origin: The render displays the extreme amount of destruction and modification carried out to the terrain, including the construction of massive structures, such as the prominent Square and Compasses (upper right). An aerial render of the spawn region in July 2019, centered on the middle of the map with a diameter of just over 4,000 blocks.
