What It's Like to Own a Minecraft Server with 232,000 PLAYERS...

- Опубликовано: 29 май 2024
- For the past 3 years, I've been running a public minecraft server. We've had over 232,000 players join, hundreds of DDOS attacks, players hacking into my account, dozens of gamebreaking exploits, famous youtubers joining and an endless slew of crashes/issues. Today I tell you ALL about it.

O_o
wow.... he advertises his own server in his comment section? so shameless..................................................
This 1 hour advertisement didn't work for me. I have already joined the server.
Oh god it's an hour?
i would if i had xbox live
It felt faster than an hour
I left for a while. Just came back because of this video, so it worked for me. ;)
It didint work for me either. I use cracked java and my phone has poor performance
33:13 thats hilarious. Imagine getting caught because a guy named fartsmag joined
What's even more funnier when he left after misterepic welcome him 😂
weird they couldn't just ctrl+f the server logs to check whoever says slurs
@@pespsisipper I've hosted my own private server a few times, searching Minecraft logs is absolute pain as the game compresses each log daily, so to search logs you must decompress each day's log file, open them all up individually, and Ctrl+F each one for the offending word until you eventually get there. Some plugins might make this easier but that's my experience with vanilla and Fabric servers.
That person was my old friend on a server that shut down 2 years ago
Fartsmagism: appear, do/say nothing, leave, and somehow solve a major problem in the process
Just watched a 1 hour and 12 minutes ad for OG-Network and I'm not even mad, I like to see the server grow.
he scammed us so hard and i love it
even if i don't really enjoy playing servers like that, i still watched to the end.
i like to believe it helps the algorithim
I didn't event try to join lol. I like how he shows us his minds and his choices of use visuals and music for his videos. :) Whatch his content on peaceful mind! 😊
Minecrafter is actually a menace for all of that LMAO
You've got to respect the dedication tho
and a smart dude
Trust me when I say: Every server has their dedicated players and dedicated cheaters...

You said he wouldn’t make a video 30 min again. Here we are.
He did stand with his word, he upped it to 60 minutes 😂
Never again...
@@TheMisterEpicmust have took a year or something to make this video
Double that and give it to the viewers 😂
he said "Double it and give it to the next person" and they gave it to him
"I just tricked you into watching a 1 hour ad for my server"
My guy, I realized that like 10mins in :D
Same and it worked
See corpos, Ads that are good content in their own right are something people watch without being forced to while actually being possible to finish with a positive outlook on your product.
My server got DDoSed by the same guy who DDoSed Hypixel a few years back. Was like >1tbps or something, took down the entire data centre, and they were pretty annoyed. Interestingly though when they were taking down Hypixel, my server reached its peak of 3.5k players.
do you own bedwaarspractice
@@clauteletuby Why?
Taking down an entire datacenter seems like a good way to get an intelligence organisation on your back.

Probably the best advertisement on youtube
Actually enjoyable advertisement 😅
I can definitely appreciate all that you've gone through. My server started in 2013, and as it focuses on autism, it is a constant target for hackers, griefers, and DDOS attacks. It's a never ending battle all on it's own... but as you said, on top of that, there's the painful learning process, the money issues that no one ever seems to understand, and so much more. Running a Minecraft server is NOT nearly as glamorous as many people seem to think it is.
How does a server focus on autism?
I get the idea but in my opinion making autism your main character trait is kinda pathetic, you know that you're more than your disability right?
@@pixelcreators4425Take a look at this guys’ channel. It’s actually kind of wholesome what the goal is, and it’s unfortunate that ddos attacks are common on such a server.
@@pixelcreators4425 That's not what the majority of the world thinks sadly.
@@pixelcreators4425 Making a server for autistic people isn't making it their main character trait? If someone made a server for their country - like an australian server for example, would you say they're making being Australian their main character trait? 💀💀
Well, I may have watched a one hour twelve minute advertisement for your server, but it is very well written, so props to you for making such an engaging advertisement!
Yeah chills 😀
The fact that this video is over an hour long is plenty of proof enough that this video is your magnum opus.
The fact that this video is a deep look into the history of your server is glorious, humurous, and fascinating. All at the same time.
And the fact that you adopted the technique of integrating your server into videos in a way that is relevant is nothing short of genius.
This video is excellent not just in detailing the history of your server, not just in detailing the experience of running a server, not just in detailing the evolution of yourself...
But also excellent in getting me and thousands of other people to watch an hour and 12 minute ad for a Minecraft server. Well done, MisterEpic. Well done.
Thanks :)

As a server dev thanks for these types of videos, they help me with my own server a lot!
I will only join your server if you make a game mode specifically catered to my obscure tastes and I will not tell you what those are.
Oh soo you want epic do some weird sus stuff?
AMONG US
@@Furnive WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO KNOW
I hope the legend Fartsmag is living the best life out there in the world. Strolling from server to server, leaving breadcrumbs of supporting evidence to help others solve moderation issues.
Fartsmag, the hero we needed but didn't deserve.
1:11:41 Lol its not an ad for me cause I am a anti-ptw server owner so your videos are pretty much homework for running my server. In all seriousness your videos have been super helpful in helping me run my server in a plethora of ways. I started watching you years ago before either of us had owned servers and it just so happened to pay off. Your content is amazing, keep up the good work!
1:04:35 It is actually crazy how many people will take something at face value without even trying to understand it. IMO the way did P2W in only PVE was the best way you could've handled it.
Misterepic you just started the latest and brand newest minecraft trend
real
Ayo your the guy who said I must suck huhns you know
I will come back and talk to you man to man face to face or was it the other guy with your profile pick
Bro the pain with running a Minecraft server is actually so real. I run a server for my friends and just the general community here. It consists of a pvp enabled lobby plus a creative and survival world. With crossplay between bedrock, java, and eagler. (Check out this guys last vid if you don't know what that is) The amount of time, effort, and money you have to put into a server even that small is insane. So yea I for one completely support that pay to win style you have. You keep it contained to just one mode and don't include the stupid gambling aspect some p2w servers have.
been watching you since like 2020, and watched the server grow via the videos you would post about it and stuff. The way you integrate the server with your videos is unique and i don't think ive ever seen someone do it like, and as sucessfully as u. Great work, i might join the server for the first time
Oh shit, this video is so good! I never played on the server but i feel like I'm an OG after watching this video, its literally all your videos combined, if this is your longest vid will you be making more of these shorter videos explaining what happens to promote the server right? If so respect!
Just finished watching the video, and I have to say I couldn't relate more! People truly don't know how expensive and time consuming running a Minecraft server is. Amazing video and documentary of your server's history! Keep up the great work!
~ps cant wait for the new factions gamemode ;)
Ive hosted 3 tournaments, multiple minigames, and 3 SMPs (all modded hell holes) for me and my buddys twitch community in the past 2 years and my god I never realized how expensive it is maintaining a server just for 2 months let alone a full year until now, your doing a great job hope your server gets more love and a bigger audience to it in the future
Really cool video, It's really cool to see the beginnings of your server and I liked the documentary style you have gone for
This was a fun podcast. Thank you for the video. I never hosted a server but it can be quite stressful to have one. I found it quite funny you love exploit and arent scared of it ruining your server. 😂
You're such a great youtuber. Literally super in touch with your community, great work bro keep it up.
Hey trooper. I've never played your server and didn't know you had one. I'm gonna update my game and give it a try, the domination game mode bit hit home for me and gave me a good perspective on what kind of stuff you're into. Well done
On my way to make it 232,001
Great video! I really enjoyed hearing your side and I liked the fact you cleared up all the loose ends from the original video on P2W minecraft servers. Opinions change rapidly, and trying to get others to understand them is important if you want people to see eye-to-eye. I am looking forward to playing factions on your server.
I have never even considered joining the server until now after hearing this story. It’s crazy to hear you talk about old gamemodes I remember vividly. To be honest, I’ve seen so many ads that’s my mind completely turns off or I skip it. Very interesting to see this side of Minecraft and wish you the best .
Amazing video, would love to see another one of these in the future! Keep up the amazing work, not many can put in the effort you and your team put in!
BRAVO!
I watched all the way through, and I felt like it was a worth while watch as I now understand how it is to host something (very difficult) Thanks for making this video
I really love this video about the perspective of running a business by server hosting. I am still learning a lot about creating a business about videogames in general but this video give me hope that the experience may be daunting at first but you can find joy on the worst part of the job by using exploits as promotional material.
I am really glad you made this video because you teach about the importance of how to adapt, never give up and always find way to solve problems no matter how dumb they are. Thank you!
I've always enjoyed learning about the behind the scenes stuff for minecraft servers, great video
i watched this while working on a mega project, Ty for the entertainment man. I wish you and ur server the best!!!
This vid is an HOUR damn I am gonna have to put this on my watch later can't wait to watch!
I didn't know this was over an hour when I started watching it, so I watched the whole thing
I have had very similar experiences owning a server and it's nice to know that my experiences aren't that wierd/different from most
Great video! I have never played more than 5 minutes on your server, but now im joining. One of the best ads :D
this is not my main acc but I have ran a server in past with a total player base of 4K Players with around 30 Daily players
ITS REALLY HARD to Maintain the server espically financially I had to close the server because my yt wasn't monitized the donators stopped donating slowly and then Last 2 seasons went in loss and I had to close it and leave yt
Now I am planning to do a come back... I have learnt alot and maybe this time I can make something successfull.
TheMisterEpic, I really enjoy all of your videos. Even with the shorter videos you can tell you put alot of effort into them, and this video was great for the length of it. I don't know if you get enough credit on the quality of your videos
Thank you :)
This video is very educational in one way, Especially the heads up of warnings what kind of risk and the security flaws one could encounter.
So if ever comes to mind making a server of such max-scale, be mentally prepared for anything from small to huge dumpster-fire is the main key.
Whats so funny about this, the true issue is not the game itself but the players.
Full respect for still keept going.
I was planning after the video ended to say "in the end, is this not just another advertisement for the server, even if it is more sophisticated?" But you took the words out of my mouth. Still, amazing video keep up the good work!
watched a 1:12:04 hours lenght, in a video that talk about minecraft (i dont play it anymore) and i enjoyed it. great server, i might think to start playing again and join ur server ^^
When i started my server (just a vanilla+ survival fabric server, no paper or plugins) I got pretty fuckin lucky. I happened to post on reddit that i was making a server, at the same time that a small streamer was looking for a server. He brought his entire viewer base (like 100 people on average) to view the server when we launched it, and with all the other people the reddit managed to pick up, we had like 80 people that first day. The hardest part as server owner, was figuring out how to prevent lag, without limiting what people could do. 5 years later, we're still a 10ish player survival server, with tons of massive projects being worked on, and it's been the most fun experience of my life, seeing a bunch of random people come together to make something special. we've got a few small streamer's, like 10-20 viewer's, who stream, then host other people, and in the 20-30 viewer streamer group, our server has gotten kinda famous, cuz of all the stupid projects we do lol. It's truly been a life changing experience.
Interesting! I personally want to try run a server myself so the technical details were quite interesting. Also you managd to trick me into watching an hour long advertisement successfully
You have come a long way since starting the server. And even though I wasn't there, I've heard from other people and from seeing the videos that you've worked really hard for this alongside your friends and mod team. I recommend for another potential video that you do, going over the highlights of the happy moments of all the different servers. Perhaps funny things perhaps things that happened in history that are just comical for some reason. Basically anything that could bring light to the server and show the amount of good things or funny things that players get into on the server as a whole. Perhaps even the Discord. You're doing great man. As well as your staff team and people helping you. Keep it up. :)
I KNEW IT, it was a really big advertisement for your server

@@Cloud67TR yeah I know
Damn. W editing man. God I remember watching you and you're editing has improved. You are one of the best 👍💯minecraft youtubers. You are literally the BEST ever.
I always get very exited when I see one of your videos on my "For you" page. Thanks!
I’ve been meaning to join your server so I’ll check it out soon! Also thanks for the great and informative videos
I have a little server management experience and i have seen how far people will go to attack a Minecraft server from ddos attacks to hacking server panels its all just insane
I run a non p2w server and everything you said is 100% true. Really appreciate the insights you shared in this video, worth the hour of my time.
As a Server owner, I can completly agree. It's very hard at start soo yeah. Good luck & Keep up with the work (Server & RUclips, as I like watching them)
I usually find it hard to sit down and swallow a one hour video, but this video was so well put together that it wasn't even hard. My attention was constantly captured, one of your best videos you've done yet MrEpic.
this is such a great video thank you for this longer type of video!
1 hr vid here we go
I remember that video about coming to pay to win server and it was quite difficult to digest regarding your history. But it was reasonable and who was willing to understand, he did. You made me reconsider some opinions, that is not easy in my age, and I think now that was very important video. And the level of dismissal in my eyes somehow confirms it.
Honestly I'm going to join for the role playing pve mode. Haven't hopped on Minecraft in probably a year, and when I do it's just me and my siblings, but I'll put some time on this one it think.
Of course I always respected how you were running this server and like your videos quite a bit. You guys are doing great work. Best of luck
got so invested in the video i didn't realize it was an hour long
Hey there, TheMisterEpic! Just wanted to let you know that I like watching your videos and I am subscribed to your channel. Keep up the good work!
I also clicked the bell button 🛎️🔔
Loved the video and I have some friends who run a non p2w server and it’s 100% a passion project but it costs them so much time and money. I definitely understand the economics and think your handling it probly the best way possible. Loved hearing the history of this server tho. I’ll finally join it soon. I hope it supports controlify. Great video
I have been a small Danish server owner for years, owning servers in my country's landscape, its been up and down and i have been through a lot of what you have but on a smaller scale reflecting the player pool here. This video yes, its an ad for your extremely good server i'd be frank, but its also something i feel most players need to watch, player demand, demand and demand they don't get how much work people like you and i put in to make their favorite server a reality, hats off to you for doing this and i hope to see more behind the scenes owner content in the future!
Hes going to make a video about how many people joined off of this video alone and then another one for that one😂😂😂
Did I really just watch a 1 hour and 12 minutes advertisement ;-; I might try the server cuz this advertisement def worked
This must've been soo stressful for y'all I really appreciate you making a video on this it was super entertaining to see!
Absolutely amazing video really well mare and informative I can only imagine the amount of work required to make this. Keep it up it's videos like these that help the community learn and understand 👍
i enjoyed this a lot and i even logged on to your server
This is perhaps your greatest video by far. It's honestly a great summary of every challenge faced in growing the server (indirect advertising was the ultimate strat), as well as previous exploit videos. Importantly, you didn't hold back on also discussing the controversies and your validations for them, you made many tough calls but ultimately they have led to successful growth. You were able to reflect on previous views of P2W and admit to change, convincing me and others as well. I can tell you've matured as both server owner and content creator in the past few years, a very unique and fortunate position to be in, you've earned it, and can't wait to see where the server goes from here!
Thank you :)
I NEVER usually watch 1 hour videos but I really enjoyed watching this. You definitely kept me interested. Brings back so many memories of playing gamemodes such as The Bridges and SG on Mineplex. Ive also seen the server grow as you've continued to post about it since you started it. My life is quite busy nowadays however and I have also moved onto other things.
I don't play much Minecraft these days (I have an event every month or so I'm involved with old uni friends) but Monster Hunter and other games has captured my attention now (still want to do all Advancements some time though.)
Also you said you wouldn't be making a longer video than 30 minutes on the 30 minute one. So I'm now prepared for 2 hr expose on your whole YT journey from start to now.
been here since the beginning. great to see you've grown to over 650k
He doubled the time of 30 minutes and gave it to the viewers 😂
MAKE SURE YOU SUBSCRIBE!!! LOADS OF PRESSURE THIS TIME!
I really understand your perspective and experience with managing a server. I myself also run a server, although limited on time due to school. The server is now 3 years and a month old. Through that time, I've had to figure out a lot of the similar things that you had to as well. Now in the current day, my server "WawaNet" is currently in down time due to the season three massive revamp and update. Having SMP modes with custom coded RPG gameplay (which is optional) with custom coded game modes and pvp modes. I was able to do this because I know a bit on coding and altering plugins to my liking. However, with being in 12 grade now and a heavier load of work coming in, I have basically lost time to do anything for the server. Thus it being still down and a lot of slow progress. One of the things you said in the video was about how you had the privilege of just advertising your server on your youtube channal free of charge. I myself didn't have that, and the server when it was even on, struggled to even get a singular player to play which was the main reason that motivated me to change the server completely.
Sorry, went on a ramble here, anyways, I agree with most of your points and especially with the financial problem, I hope you well!
(Also sorry if my english isn't great, its my third language and I'm still learning, Thank you for your understanding!)
Watched the whole thing. I found it a surprise to me that I recognized everything you talked about in the video as a long time viewer of the channel.
Good video, but maybe don't end videos with promises you might as well break in the future (or don't, it's great comment and engagement bait)
after watching this 1 hour advertisement I want to play the server but I can't really commit the time to actually do it.
30 Different alt's to evade banning, doesn't that mean he has purchased the game 30 times (because don't you need to buy another account (an alt) to do this?
- If so then that is quite funny that he has spent $800-900 on the game....
Yeah probably.
Or be bought them for 5 cents each of Minecraft’s black market for stolen accounts
Oh god this video must've taken so long! I really enjoyed watching this video though, something about it being very long yet very entertaining. You've out done yourself misterepic!
Me realizing I've been watching you for over 4 years now is insane
Why don’t you hire minecrafter? That would be a 200 IQ play. He finds exploits and you patch them.
15:42 That video intro made me laugh lmao 🤣
I was alwasy curous about such work behind the scenes. So thanks the POV. Plus your voice is nice.
I don't be joining however, cause i just don't do multiplayer.
As someone who has run a small server for my friends, i agree, HEAVILY in the fact that it costs so much to keep running. Where i am 1 kilowatt-hour is between 12-68 cents, and i had the server running basically 24/7 for a total time of about 5-8~ months straight. I did the math recently and the electricity bill for running it that long was somewhere between $262.98 ~ $420.768 (12c per hour) And $1,490.22 ~ $2,384.352 (68c per hour). Average: $1,139.58
So i understand how annoying it is when people just complain about it... Doesn't help that they wanted to run a VERY unstable modpack that crashed the server every few hours (and i couldn't find an auto-crash-relauncher-mod that would've restarted the server when that happened, so i was usually pinged by them at like 3am or when i was away from the computer to ask me to restart the server.) - After 2 months of that i got quite fed up with feeling like a tool that they were using me as. I was alright with it before because i was playing it with them and hanging out a lot, but i got busy, and couldn't really play with all of them at the same time due to ram constraints (If there were a few people on the server my computer would run out of ram - probably from a lot of the world being loaded at that point - and i couldn't play at the same time, so overall i felt really lonely)
Sorry for this wall of textual complaint, but I needed to get the frustration out there. I feel you.
Also had to reset the world a couple times, which made a few of them mad at me. It sucks dude.
People forget that servers aren’t made by robots and are hosted by people with lives lol
Factions will be great. Mark my words 😄

I love long videos about the stories that happen on multiple minecraft servers, they are always so unique!
btw have you thought about making a smp that restarts every month or week, that idea works well in games like Rust. I know next to nothing about hosting servers but i think it would be a fun idea and it would make players hype for every wipe aswell as making it more easy to starters since they don't have to travel far just to get iron, deff playing that if that's added :)
The entire history of og network i guess
I have played the SMP since it's release date and I'm glad to say that I'm fully satisfied and this is a great video ❤
I legitimately clicked on this video not knowing it was an hour long, until you mentioned it at the very end. I guess I just have a long attention span, and a lot of time to watch hour long videos.
great video, looking forward to more longer vids like this one
Was that MumboJumbo?
Hell nah are you telling me ur becoming a competent server owner by making a P2W mode? Yeah bad server cuz of reasonable financial decisions.
Have been playing this server for 2+ years and can say that nothing compares to the community and the dedication and love the staff has for the server and its community. OG is definitely one of my best gaming experiences, and I hope for more players to experience the same thing. I am looking forward to coming back soon to play with everybody. Here is to 2 more years and beyond!🎉
thats it mate. Im hooked. Getting on og network rn
I was dying laughing hearing about _minecrafters misadventures. Actually so funny, he just does a little trolling
