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

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.

This video took way too long, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE.
JOIN THE SERVER, IP: og-network.net

[xdvrdozALBA]

This 1 hour advertisement didn't work for me. I have already joined the server.

[Temporaly]

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.

[rutimo]

33:13 thats hilarious. Imagine getting caught because a guy named fartsmag joined

[vitulus_]

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.

"I just tricked you into watching a 1 hour ad for my server"
My guy, I realized that like 10mins in :D

[methamfeminine]

playing this prison of a server for 3 years now and im warning everyone to NOT join you will never leave and will forever be trapped here

[iamsoni.]

Minecrafter is actually a menace for all of that LMAO

[flipnnate]

You said he wouldn’t make a video 30 min again. Here we are.

[AutismFather]

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.

[rutimo]

1:08:10 i find it funny that they are basically saying “why are you working for Just work for free”

[ramennoodles]

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!

[Christopher_S]

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.

4 seconds after upload, the sex bots are already here?!?

[Go_ing]

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!

[juxoq]

Probably the best advertisement on youtube

[mittens]

As a server dev thanks for these types of videos, they help me with my own server a lot!

[clothieredward]

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.

[ivorycxxxx]

When he got to the drama bit I genuinely thought Duper had said something horrific because of all the replies to the tweet. He called the person ‘Crycum’ LMAO how on Earth is that in any way ‘bullying’ 😂😂😂

[steelforge]

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
