7 Oldest And Best Minecraft Servers

Minecraft seems like a simple game. Its main objective is to mine resources, craft objects, and that's why it's called Minecraft.



While this may be the very basic element of the game, mining and crafting regular objects just scratches the surface of the game - the things that people can create in Minecraft are only limited by their imaginations.



Minecraft announced in 2017 that it had sold over 122 million copies since its release in 2009. It also boasted 55 million monthly users.



The game's simple mechanics are the reason for its popularity. The game allows players to create almost anything. There's always something to do.



A few months after the game was released, the first multiplayer mode was released and the popular survival multiplayer mode went live a year later in 2010. Since then, hundreds of Minecraft servers have been created for players to create communities, share their creations, and develop unique game modes.



Some of the most well-known servers today were created almost immediately after survival multiplayer was launched.



7. Hypixel



Year Established April 2013 Country of Origin United States Founder(s), Minecraft username: Hypixel, Rezzus Total Players: More Than 7,000,000

Along with Mineplex, Hypixel is one of the most popular Minecraft servers ever created. In 2015, Hypixel hosted the 7,000,000th unique player. HubBubTheNerdy was the 7,000,000th player. A small celebration was held by players in the game at the time to celebrate the milestone.



Hypixel's large world and unique minigames are why it has been so popular. Each minigame comes with its own coins, quests and lobby. The server has shooters, normal survival, team survival, and hardcore survival, arcade games, hide and seek, arena brawl, and many more.



6. Mineplex



Year Established: January 24, 2013, Country of Origin: United States Founder(s), Minecraft username: Sterling_ and Spou_ Total Number of Unique Users: Unknown, possibly millions; more than 525,000 users are registered on Mineplex forums

Even though Mineplex isn't as old as most of the other servers on this list, it is currently the largest and most popular Minecraft server in the world. Mineplex is so big that it hosts thousands of players at all times of the day and nights. It is listed on its website as an official Minecraft partner.



Mineplex sells its custom in-game cosmetics for server costs, world development and plugin development. Mineplex's main selling point is its "minigames", which offer customized maps with different challenges. Minigame categories are: Classics; Survival; Champions, Clans; Holiday.



5. Crazy Fools UK



Year Established: 2010 Country Of Origin: United Kingdom Founder(s). Minecraft username: BRooNiE Total Players: Over 5,156 (last count was in 2014).

Although Crazy Fools UK might not be a well-known server, it is one of the oldest from the United Kingdom. The server's official website even says that its the oldest from the UK, but MinecraftOnline, which is based in England, is a a few months older.



Crazy Fools UK is a traditional survival mode server that says it is a "friendly and safe place to play without any of the hassles of idiotic admins or griefers." Crazy Fools UK's own coded "WaterWorld" adds an extra dimension to the game. It has a vast ocean with many islands and pirate vessels. Crazy Fools UK states that the server is open to all, but anyone wishing to join must pass an intelligence test.



4. 2b2t (2builders2tools)



Year Established: December 2010, United States. Founder(s). Minecraft usernames: Georgebush420 & Hausemaster Total Number Of Unique Players: More than 175,000

2builders2tools, which is usually just called 2b2t, is the oldest and most famous "anarchy server" in Minecraft history. It is typically considered the second oldest Minecraft server (even though there are a few older servers) overall after MinecraftOnline. The server has been running since December 2010 but has never been reset.



2b2t is most well-known because of its chaotic nature. Although the server is still reportedly owned by the original founders, no one actually runs or moderators the server. There are no rules in 2b2t. Anyone can play. Over the years, there have been many "wars" among different factions. There is a queue of 1,000 players waiting to get in to the server.



3. Minr.org



Year established: October 22, 2010, Country of origin: United States Founder(s),: Unknown Total number of unique players: Unknown

Like all of the servers on this list, Minr.org believes it is the oldest still running Minecraft server. Minr.org is an older server that has mazes, challenges, as well parkour maps. Members who have completed the most difficult maps on Minr.org create all of the server challenges.



Although the server can be accessed by anyone, full membership to Minr.org, which includes building rights and other privileges, must be earned through escaping the parkour/maze. There are currently over 250 playable challenges on Minr.org. The server also hosts special events, including Ninja Warrior (a limited-time event that is server-wide), and The Amazing Race (which are both based upon the TV shows with similar names).

2. Minecraft Online

While there is a lot of debate over which existing Minecraft server is the oldest, most people believe that MinecraftOnline is officially the oldest Minecraft server. Freedonia, MinecraftOnline's main world, was created in the same day as Minecraft survival multiplayer opened to the public. Freedonia is the longest continuously running world in Minecraft Online. It has not been restored or regenerated since its first release in 2010.



Freedonia is home to many cities, towns, and other sites. It has been in existence for so long that it is open to all. MinecraftOnline's administrators have banned anyone who tries or attempts to interfere with any of the Freedonian buildings over the years.



1. Nerd.nu



Year Established: June 10, 2009. Country Of Origin: United States. Current Head Administrators: Unknown. Minecraft usernames include cujobear and silversunset.

According to the official wiki page for Nerd.nu, it is one of the oldest Minecraft servers in the world. Just a few days after Minecraft's multiplayer mode was launched, the server went online on June 10, 2009.



Nerd.nu's servers are the oldest existing servers that were founded at the servers for Minecraft's Reddit community.



Today, Nerd.nu hosts three types server types: creative (player versus environment), PvE and minigames. Nerd.nu occasionally hosts events on its special event server.

ChanTeo was founded in 2010 as a small gerrman Citybuild server. It has since grown to an international network with over 1500 players. It has been reduced to a small size by the help of Youtube Fan-Servers, and it still runs with no end in sight.
