The Estonian Attacks

Largest Repeat Grief Incident

FOr a period in early January, an Estonian griefing group targetted this server.
They were highly sophisticated, and used advanced hacks.
They always used lavacasting, as it is the hardest to clean up.
One instance was so bad, that for the first time in the server's history, an HDD backup had to be used.

February

Player Record Acheived (2025-02-16)

For a few minutes, a staggering 11 players were online the server.

Dramanacht (2025-02-17)

Largest Discord Incident

On the night of the 17th, the largest Discord incident in the history of this server occured.
It began with an allegation of cheating, and spiralled from there.
Players made threats towards others' online safety, with threats such as "I WILL FIND YOU"
The argument was divided into two factions: whatsfunny, Lokipol, and elli on one side, and Alutnarat, Koopsa, MoneyBags567, and x5vier on the other. Note that x5vier is a sleeper account.
Faction 2 accused faction 1 of griefing. In reality, only whatsfunny had griefed. The others had not.
At some time around now, both factions entered a VC.
Allegedly, extremely vulgar language and sexual harassment occured on this VC, though it is unproven.
The sides continued to fight about who griefed who, even though all griefs were fixed and warnings issued at that point
Then, koopsa called elli a "monkey" which started another round of arguing.
Lokipol then posted a screenshot which showed Alutnarat sending them the message "YOU ARE A F*CKING LOSER IDIOT I AM HACKING"
At this point, many of Faction 2 were harassing people in the DMs of Faction 1. They continued to argue and name-call
At 18:20 PST, Faction 2 started accusing Lokipol of griefing, of which there was no record. There was record of whatsfunny and jeqlous griefing, which had already been dealt with.
Koopsa then posted a damning image with tracers visible, showing that he was a hacker.
Around this time, groups began to sling around "retard" and "autistic", which is very dodgy language indeed.
At 19:09 PST, x5vier created a new invite link, and invited MoneyBags567 and "onetimeplayzyt" which immediately began spamming the N-word.
Koopsa started doing apologetics for the spammer, showing their link.
Some attempts were made to end the argument, but elli pushed it on saying that others need to finish what they started
MoneyBags567 then started questioning players gender. When one responded with non-binary, he started to harass them with "blue hair" insults. He later deleted his messages.
Another spam account joined, this time tailored to me <3 - "Enderbyte09 your also a n*****"
The server was issued a security alert from Discord.
A corelation between the Faction 2 members was established, and they were all banned except for Alutnarat.
Alutnarat and the Faction 1 players continued to argue, before Lokipol posted another image
This image showed Alutnarat threatening to Dox them.
Sometime arount then, a player admitted to being a 13 year old girl, which is pretty dangerous on the internet.
Two more spam accounts joined: "enderbyte09 your such a n*****", and "women dont deserve rights"
Alutnarat was cursorily banned while remaining under investigation. He then sent many messages proclaiming his innocence and that the evidence against him had been doctored.
At 20:00 I thought it was over, but NO! ender_sam brought up further examples of whatsfunny griefing, to which whatsfunny began angrily defending herself as a victim
ender_sam also called whatsfunny "he", which further enraged her.
Everybody eventually calmed down by 21:00, bringing DramaNacht to an end after around 3 hours of arguing.

The Teenage Girl Epidemic (2025-02-17 -> 2025-02-22)

It turned out to be a mistake to permit the second party to remain on.
They caused drama every day.
Prominent player Khai1705 left over the disruptions.

New player record (2025-02-26)

Most players online

The old record was blasted by 15 players

March

The herodoge Parkour Catastrophe (2025-03-21)

Somehow, herodoge bypassed the parkour inventory seperation
Parkour was filled with chickens
The bug was patched shortly after

Kickout Day (2025-03-25)

Anticheat kept kicking people out.

The Cheating Scandal (Late March 2025)

A bug was discovered in which creative players could turn survival players to creative
Then, the creative player could load a saved inventory
This would give them any item they wanted, even illegal items from another world
The use of the cheat was discovered when Luca gems (items that set your size to x8) were discovered on survival
The logs showed nobody even saying the world Luca.
The cheaters had discovered the perfect method.
So then the audits began
Stuupiid was found to have been setting non-creative players' gamemode
Untrusted player DGP1 was caught loading in the items
onetimeplayzyt and Alutnarat were found to be distributing and covering up the illegal items.
At the same time, x5vier (friend of Koops) admitted that they said inappropriate things to naniclan in February

First April Fools Event (2025-03-31 - 2025-04-01)

doodoodinglebutt was banned for sexual harassment and item distribution

The Revenge Incidents (2025-04-02)

Somebody wanted revenge on this server
They created three fake accounts and joined the discord.
The first one impersonated me but remained passive
The second one impersonated whatsfunny and spammed @everyone with sexual messages
The third one impersonated whatsfunny and spammed with more sexual messages
As a result, informal words for reproductive organs will result in a mute.

Vulgar Thursday (2025-04-03)

Raids and impersonation continued with increased fervor.
A total of 8 accounts were made over the day to spam
They started with the usual stuff, but quickly became worse.
Account number 3 posted a very distorted image that many people had a hunch it was inappropriate after looking at it.
Account number 4 spammed @ to many players at random
Account 5 was a sleeper account (zxrenity)
Account 6 spammed a highly pornographic image of a cartoon character (unobscured, and it somehow got past the anti-nsfw filter!!!!!)
Account number 7 turned out to be Vincent, who acted very racistly
Lastly, account number 8 spammed my personal information along with a very graphic image of a naked woman being raped by a creeper.
As a result, the server was placed under lockdown for two hours
It reopened at 22:30 after extensive security measures were put in place (new members cannot be named my name or other targets, new members cannot send images)

Attacks Continue (2025-04-10)

Someone used my email to sign up for 18+ newsletters

Raid Day (2025-04-12)

4 more accounts joined
They spammed more pornography
They were quickly banned, and even stricter settings were created

Sunday the 13th (2025-04-13)

2025-04-13 would turn out to be one of the worst days in server history.
First, an upgrade to 1.21.5 went wrong and resulted in me having to use the backup
But, the backup turned out to be corrupt
After 5 hours of waiting, the server turned on, only for players to be met with a shocking sight
All signs and text displays within a 500 block radius of spawn were destroyed
While this was happening, my email was used to sign up for multiple pornography sites.
I also received about 8 emails pretending to be from server members (actually trolls) which contained pronographic imagery (thankfully blocked by my email client) and extremely vulgar text.
Another account which I had confirmed to be from my school began to spam.
Worst of all, I found out that a staff member's account was used to advertise my server to idiots on 2b2t - PLEASE RAID, it said.
This means that the attacks are coming from 3 sources
