They only target servers with “No proper backup system”. I believe they’re making copies of the worlds they grief, and then offering to fix them in exchange for money.
@@IEatSandALot21 "mastered coding"? By using a whitelist or an anti grief plugin? Somebody call Donald Knuth cuz SUS is taking the top seat over here (edit: after seeing your response I understand your english was bad - sorry for being snarky lol)
I've built a dozen Minecraft servers for my family to play on, and the first one I stood up wasn't secured properly. We noticed that structures in some areas of the map were griefed. Some buildings were burned, and TNT had been used in other areas. I looked on the server and found UUIDs in the logs that didn't match family member accounts. Two people had been on the server, and one of them had connected multiple times across a two week period. We never actually encountered anyone while we were playing, though. Fortunately, this was a vanilla server that I had built using a world download from another server and we didn't have many hours in on it. So I just hardened the server and restored the world to a pre-griefed state. There was no harm done to us. My advice to everyone is be careful. These clowns can and will find your unsecured server and when they do they'll try their best to ruin your day.
@@genegtaylor still having a blind belief that the internet is a good place is what's sad. Griefers have been around as long as Minecraft itself, if you aren't using the plugins and programs that are available to you you are a very ignorant person
My server got griefed from these guys. My server was dead at the time. Looking at the carnage they caused was funny. Judging by the logs they spent 5 hours in my server destroying thoroughly. I was entertained for about 20 minutes and then reset my server to what it was like the moment they signed in the first time. I'm glad my server saves a snapshot of the world when you log into it.
I've been hosting a server for some friends for 4 years or so, and from day 1 we implemented 3 redundant and independent back-up systems, whitelist amd blacklist and anticheat plugins. Best decision we could've done. Thanks for informing, Fit.
@@SlyNine I run a forge server, so I use forgeessentials to make automatic backups without any hassle; I also periodically run Region Fixer to make backups that ir can understand in case anything goes wrong in that front; Windows backup is also always on, making 1 or 2 backups a day (I'm a little limited since those backups must be done on an HDD). And the whole folder with the server data I backup manually every now and then on every known good storage media I own (about 10 copies). I could automate that last step, it's just I'm not in the need rn. All of this precautions for a server only 3 people play regularly? Yes. Specially since it's not only my work and progress, but that of my friends, and I wouldn't want to lose any fond memories of that server (and trust me, we have tons, we used to be more players years ago) On that note always run your server "online", that is clients must be legit and checked against Mojang. And white and blacklisting is a must, although I understand it can be a big hassle if you plan on building a big community. I also implemented a hosts file on the PC to block any attemps to connect to known malicious websites, just in case. You are never too safe, there is no "too many precautions" point. And when we all use Minecraft as a way to create safe spaces, it better be actually safe.
My little cousin's server was gotten into by these guys (at least he's pretty sure it's them). I logged on and when I seen the damage? Holy shit. It's hard to hear a voice crack of a 12 year old almost about to cry when talking about the Master Pokemon stadium they made over 8 months. He had Charizard battling Blastoise with a water jet and fire jet smashing into each other. It was quite a neat build. Of course it could have been one of his friends who play the server. However, I know the other 3 kids quite a bit and they all seemed pretty bummed about it. Stuff sucks.
This video explains a lot because I was actually a victim to this. I had a Minecraft server than a ran and paid for that I played with my family on a few weeks ago. I logged on one morning and everything was blown up. I was really confused and still was until I saw this video. LUCKILY I had a backup so everything was restored, thank you Fit for explaining how this could have happened to me!
Isnt whitelist on automatically? Anyways the video said the greifers made sure that the servers they looked for had no backup system. So it probably was some amatuer no-name greifers.
The police are investigating multiple cases related to the attack by a certain organization called "griefers" eyewitnesses report that they attack the houses of civilians, plant explosives, set fire to everything with lighters, take people into slavery on leashes, and quickly disappear from the scene of the crime on artificial wings. The authorities do not know how to deal with them, the public is concerned
@@onlypuppy7 I mean greif on servers with no greifing rules. Sure, do it on anarchy servers and noone gonna care, but when you starts going after other servers, you crossed the line.
Imagine the endless opportunities they had with this. They could have placed a monomuent on every server they found, or an incredible copy paste build of some sort, an enderpearl cannon taking them into a city that has buildings with info and displays on how to use redstone properly, they could have been actual legends. Instead theyre practically nameless terrorists. Its a lack of vision and creativity
NO! They shouldn’t be invading other people’s servers PERIOD! That is just wrong and I am glad those fifth Colomn IDIOTS are banned from Minecraft for this!
I can just imagine... but they're lazy, boring, average. How could would it be to leave completely unexplainable buildings? Christ, I'd love to be randomly playing and finding that.
This has gone way too far. They’re essentially destroying kids’ creative projects for kicks. On 2B, it’s fair game. On any other server, you’re just acting like selfish scumbags. I hope they get some sort of retribution for this, but I doubt they will.
I think on the bright side it teaches us a lot about backups/data safety, but at the same time I do have a part of my server admin mind that hopes these people get sent to jail for life.
@@bananya6020 Similar to the comment I was thinking of making. You know those people who get angry when you butt into their 'private' twitter conversation? Like it or not, when you put a server up online, even if you don't advertise it, it's going out to the world. Like you it's a bit of mixed feelings, sucks for the people being raided but if it's an open server without even a password...
If there's anything to learn from this: Add a whitelist to private servers, and make backups frequently Edit: Yeah, I know a public server or one with limited (but many) members may be hard to add a whitelist to. If that's the case, they can still backup the server.
@@Extrinoo unless its a public server like the church ones would likely be, its easy. if you think about it, schools already have whitelists for things like educational sites. they could just get the students to give them their mc name and bam whitelisted. its not that difficult.

It will have to happen now, with this group of a**holes around but its gonna be a pain in the behind to deal with for the organizers.
Honestly wrecking stuff in minecraft feels so much worse than deleting a file in basically any other game because its basically digital art, its like destroying someones paintings
Seeing Hermitcraft in there REALLY showed me how broad this issue was. Granted, I'm sure they keep constant backups, but finding it alone regardless is insane.
It's fake HermitCraft lol - If it was real there would be Cubfan135 instead of just Cubfan with no number playing. Also the MOTD - It's obviously a joke fake Hermitcraft
Honestly, the fact that they're going after servers run by families and churches has the potential to lead to something horribly upsetting. Imagine if, as an example, someone's child passed away due to something like a form of cancer or an accident. A minecraft server they opened for their family to spend time with their child doing something the child enjoyed then becomes something precious: A little digital scrapbook of memories and a digital footprint of something they and their child did together. Something intangible but real-feeling they can look at and say "My child and I did this together." A one-of-a-kind thing. Griefing sentimental things like that has never sat right with me. That's just a line you don't go near, and this is inevitably going to happen.
You're committing a big error there, your comment will either be used as a justification to destroy servers that aren't sentimental or used to target sentimental servers. And if you ask for people to track trolls and [BANNED WORD] you won't be in the top comment and trolls will mock you to inspire fear of getting mocked amongst the normal humans and so they won't seek for the truth.
"Doing it for fun" To get joy purely from doing other people wrong and causing emotional/psychological (and in some cases financial) pain is quite LITERALLY philosophically the lowest in society next to serial killers. Most criminals do their crime for some personal gain, but these types just literally seek to cause harm. It's sadistic.
@omaralqudah5812 Not Minecraft griefers, people who seek to cause some form of harm to others for no other reason than getting joy from their suffering, of which Minecraft griefers may be included.
This is why my server is whitelisted. Any time we do updates, purges, revamps, etc..Our rule #1 is to check that whitelist is ON. We've had randos come by in the past...luckily they meant no harm.

This definently went too far. Imagine the people who have had a server with their friend for years, with tons of progress and memories, all gone in just a matter of hours. Not a lot of people who have a server with their friends do backups manually, so if there is no automatic one, there might not be a way to ever bring back what has been destroyed. Griefing on anarchy servers or even faction servers i understand because that's the whole point, but attacking innocent servers with people who just wanna have fun goes too far. I don't believe that all griefers are heartless monsters, but man, some of them are and some of them have no sympathy whatsoever.

"No proper backup system" being a criteria for being a target makes me think that they're doing it for something else than just fun too. If it was just for fun, that wouldn't be there.
Imagine seeing a child’s art project, something they’ve spent months or years on, and just walking up to it and smashing it with a baseball bat and saying, “Oh it’s just a bit of fun, I’m just trolling lol.” This is disgusting. Even though it’s digital, it’s still art and a lot of hard work. These guys are a bunch of cowards, they would never dare destroy a physical art project but sitting behind their desks with a mask of anonymity, they are more than willing to be degenerate. If they could see the pain they cause these kids and families, I’d doubt they’d continue to do it, and if they still do, they need some serious therapy, but deserve a prison sentence.
and... people like you like to shit around on the belief that people like this would shiver their own timbers at the notion of doing anything in real life like every person you deem bad is totally a coward. it's projection, man. whether you condemn it or not their bot took brains to make and their griefs took dedication. if they were just pussies behind a screen they wouldn't do worldwide griefing campaigns and would instead write an angry youtube comment online...

Griefing bases on 2b2t is fair game, but seeking out and destroying completely random Minecraft servers is the lowest you can go. If you gain joy from destroying innocent servers you definitely need to get off the computer for a bit
It genuinely surprises me that running something like this is even legal, under some definitions this bot could be classes as malware. So yes, I do beleive the people involved with this crossed a line.
Oh I agree. As far as I'm concerned it's vandalism. If you just start wrecking someone else's shit for no defensible reason, even on public property, you can still get slapped with a misdemeanor. The fact that it's digital in this case doesn't change anything when the data is being saved over as soon as it's altered, so you're still having your work destroyed with malicious intent (because let's be real, anyone running an unsecured Minecraft server probably isn't running backup software).
They definitely crossed the line. It's interesting to see a completely legal and unpunishable action cause so much pain to others. I'm not on any servers that could be affected so from the outside it's like seeing a comic book villain.
Unauthorized access to computers is illegal. They didn't circumvent any login process so they could try to argue it in court, but something tells me these kids would stop their shit pretty fast once the cops get involved
@@danielgysi5729 if they're open servers that anyone can access it's hard to say that it's unauthorized. Good luck suing somebody for joining your Minecraft server.

There's no way you could write legislation to punish what these players did without it causing considerable hassles for people that just want to play in peace.
As a owner of a small server for friends I can imagine these people causing a lot of drama with friends with people blaming each-other. It’s a real scummy thing to do man
What's so disgusting is that they spent so much of their time on developing a program with the sole purpose of ruining other people's happiness. This is pure evil. This really show what humanity is when there is no punishment.
INB4 their "efforts" make SMP servers die even more. Griefing in an isolated location is mildly dastardly fun, sure. But what reasons do the users in a private, supposedly safe, environment have to continue if they have a years worth of progress erased? This is just a betrayal of player to player trust, and material that Microsoft could use to justify the privatization of even more aspects of the game.
2b2t was founded for griefers to have a space for them to have an outlet. It's always been a concern of many on other servers that something like this would happen, i never thought it would. This is very sad.

This is crossing the line from trolling, to being just evil. The smaller servers are mostly set up for friends and families who just want to calmly play without worrying about some jackass blowing stuff up. This could kill Minecraft.
Annoying others for your own amusement is trolling. Systematically going after every open server is basically grinding for bragging rights that nobody will care about in a year.
These guys just hit my server and destroyed weeks worth of progress. Worst part is the owner was planning to set up a whitelist just minutes before. Went to their discord to try and talk with them. They're impossible to talk to. They immediately call you a bigot and an anti-semetic (ironic since my minecraft was a church group) and basically just grief random servers and post it on CZcams claiming their targets were justified. Disgusting behavior. I hope they get dealt with soon.
You can't talk to some people. Just can't. I've seen a guy get called a liar, then he ended up not disproving it, but "getting revenge" (kicking the accuser) by lying. So he then proved the accuser right, in a very stupid way.
Honestly I never expected 2b2t players to "cross the line" on 2b2t. Until I watched the video and found out it was not on 2b2t. Atleast 2b2t is an anarchy server if you build something you have full responsibility if it gets griefed but really attacking random servers?
Really feel like being SO pathetic . They want to be weirdo okay but the entire "need to not have anti hack and no back up " really feel like they are to coward and target toddler to shout at !

This happened to a pretty small server between me and some friends which we all (but I especially) had sunk many many hours into over the course of about 6 months or so. It wasn't a 10 year old server or anything, but we had worked super hard on all of our builds, had a really nice community area, and I was building a massive quartz town hall building to support a judicial system for resolving player conflicts. In a matter of 10 minutes, I watched as two griefers used fly hacks and grief hacks (any block they stood near instantly blew up) to systematically destroy all of my work and all of the stuff my friends had made. The server host said he made frequent backups but it turns out he was lazy and his last backup was from months before so we had to start all over again. Unfortunately after that many players quit, and we were never able to recreate the community we had on that world. Griefing random servers is a seriously fucked up thing to do.
Imagine making a minecraft server with your friends, that you played on for years and, mastered every aspect of the game, and then you log on one day to see it all being burned down and destroyed

Okay, griefing is fun, not gonna lie, but randomly blowing up entire servers? That's bad. Almost evil. And the worst thing, they used a bot! Where's the fun if you use a machine to do the dirty work for you?

@@mrlodgereal you seem really eager to defend these hackers in every reply you make to every comment on this video. do you also get a kick out of messing with little kids?
Here's a good way to get revenge: Create a new server with completely no security. Set up a bot of some sort to notify you when users other than yourself log on. When you see suspicious activity, log on and spawn-trap them. Make sure to turn on ImmediateRespawn so that they have no choice but to respawn and get killed again. Then, when you get bored of it, kick them and delete the server/add more security.

This video came out just in time. About 4 weeks ago my neighbour and I had been attacked by greifers that somehow got past our whitelist system and managed to give them selves operator, They managed to ban us all and place illegal blocks such as player heads etc. Our city was completely blew up by large amount of TNT and all our inventorys had been cleared. Thankfully the greifers forgot to delete our backups so nothing really was lost. But this has encouraged us to step up our security game and always be careful with who we invite to the server.

You're telling me that these guys have essentially re-created the nmap scanning tool in Minecraft and have scanned 50,000+ addresses. I don't think they realize that this is quite literally a federal offense. Performing such unsolicited network scans can literally get them jail time
Sorry to say mate but american laws dont affect people outside of america, so only a federal offense in your country. Not americans cant be jailed by america
So, this actually happened to some friends and I. We had JUST set up a fresh vanilla server and some absolutely random people had joined. We were able to track what servers they had joined after ours and it was the same thing when we joined and asked about it. Just random people griefing small servers. Luckily we had all of about 10 hours of work on the server and they weren't very good at griefing even that lol
them actively seeking servers that don’t backup regularly was the biggest problem imo, ik most servers don’t but the fact they actively seemed those servers makes me mad
This certainly shows how important it is to back up your data AND have measures in place to stop malicious activity, such as anticheats. My own server was offline during the initial spree and was spared, but I am certainly going to tighten up security in the coming days. Stay safe, people.
I feel more bad for the people that did this than their victims. Creating a world backup and whitelist for a server easy, but living with the fact that as a fully developed adult, you take pleasure in destroying blocks in a children's game isn't.
Blowing up big structures in a game is fun, it's kinda fucked up that they were doing permanent damage tho. I wouldn't have a problem with them if they targeted servers with backup capability.
This is why I put my private servers on whitelist mode. Once had someone get in like this, but they were a real person and not a bot. Luckily my friends and I were online. We thought he was someone I'd invited a while ago, but when he started lighting things on fire and then got around my ban by using seemingly endless accounts, we quickly realized otherwise. My friend ended up killing the guy in-game (and got his hacked-in silk touch stone pickaxe, I mean why even bother....) before I IP banned him and then restarted the server in whitelist mode. It actually started lore for our server, and we set up a gravestone for "jaco the firebringer" (the first account he used contained jaco in the name) and the story of how my friend defeated jaco the firebringer is passed down to new players.

I've built a dozen Minecraft servers for my family to play on, and the first one I stood up wasn't secured properly. We noticed that structures in some areas of the map were griefed. Some buildings were burned, and TNT had been used in other areas. I looked on the server and found UUIDs in the logs that didn't match family member accounts. Two people had been on the server, and one of them had connected multiple times across a two week period. We never actually encountered anyone while we were playing, though.
Fortunately, this was a vanilla server that I had built using a world download from another server and we didn't have many hours in on it. So I just hardened the server and restored the world to a pre-griefed state. There was no harm done to us.

@@SlyNine I run a forge server, so I use forgeessentials to make automatic backups without any hassle; I also periodically run Region Fixer to make backups that ir can understand in case anything goes wrong in that front; Windows backup is also always on, making 1 or 2 backups a day (I'm a little limited since those backups must be done on an HDD). And the whole folder with the server data I backup manually every now and then on every known good storage media I own (about 10 copies). I could automate that last step, it's just I'm not in the need rn. All of this precautions for a server only 3 people play regularly? Yes. Specially since it's not only my work and progress, but that of my friends, and I wouldn't want to lose any fond memories of that server (and trust me, we have tons, we used to be more players years ago)
On that note always run your server "online", that is clients must be legit and checked against Mojang. And white and blacklisting is a must, although I understand it can be a big hassle if you plan on building a big community.
I also implemented a hosts file on the PC to block any attemps to connect to known malicious websites, just in case.
You are never too safe, there is no "too many precautions" point. And when we all use Minecraft as a way to create safe spaces, it better be actually safe.

You can't talk to some people. Just can't. I've seen a guy get called a liar, then he ended up not disproving it, but "getting revenge" (kicking the accuser) by lying. So he then proved the accuser right, in a very stupid way.

Honestly I never expected 2b2t players to "cross the line" on 2b2t. Until I watched the video and found out it was not on 2b2t. Atleast 2b2t is an anarchy server if you build something you have full responsibility if it gets griefed but really attacking random servers?

Imagine for a moment. You are making a cute little sculpture in your backyard shed. It took months, years, even of effort. Then one night, someone opened your shed and smadhe5the sculpture into pieces. You were mad, and gone to confront them.
They laughed at you and told you that they're just having fun, and that it's your fault for not having a lock on your shed. What do you think?
This happened to a pretty small server between me and some friends which we all (but I especially) had sunk many many hours into over the course of about 6 months or so. It wasn't a 10 year old server or anything, but we had worked super hard on all of our builds, had a really nice community area, and I was building a massive quartz town hall building to support a judicial system for resolving player conflicts. In a matter of 10 minutes, I watched as two griefers used fly hacks and grief hacks (any block they stood near instantly blew up) to systematically destroy all of my work and all of the stuff my friends had made. The server host said he made frequent backups but it turns out he was lazy and his last backup was from months before so we had to start all over again. Unfortunately after that many players quit, and we were never able to recreate the community we had on that world. Griefing random servers is a seriously fucked up thing to do.
Imagine making a minecraft server with your friends, that you played on for years and, mastered every aspect of the game, and then you log on one day to see it all being burned down and destroyed

Here's a good way to get revenge: Create a new server with completely no security. Set up a bot of some sort to notify you when users other than yourself log on. When you see suspicious activity, log on and spawn-trap them. Make sure to turn on ImmediateRespawn so that they have no choice but to respawn and get killed again. Then, when you get bored of it, kick them and delete the server/add more security.
