anarchy server (plural anarchy servers)

1. (video games, chiefly Minecraft) A player-run server or world with virtually no rules, allowing total freedom for actions like hacking, griefing, PvP, stealing, and exploiting, creating a chaotic, Wild West environment where survival is difficult and the goal is often to endure or exploit the lawlessness for personal gain.

     ... the oldest-running “anarchy server,” 2builders2tools (2b2t). This server is essentially a multiplayer Minecraft environment where there are no rules.

[...] The server has seen Nazi propaganda and cultures of destruction, and it is generally highly nihilistic.

   • 2024, Mojang, chapter 3, in The World of Minecraft‎, page 50:

     The oldest and most infamous anarchy server is 2b2t, which launched not long after Minecraft, in 2010. Now over 20 terabytes in size, its world is a nightmare frontier of deadfalls, lava flows, trashed bases, and hate speech.
