Server

The Survival Server of r/196 is an unofficial Minecraft Server derivative of the subreddit r/196, with most players originating from there. It was created on March 16th, 2022. The IP for the server is survival.the196server.xyz.

The server suffers from a multitude of problems, you can see them in this page.

History
A post by reddit user RonnieGirlUWU_ on March 15th, 2022 called for the creation of a Minecraft Server for the subreddit, which was then followed by a post on the same day saying that a user called jerkspoon had created a Minecraft Server, calling him a "madlad"[sic] and sharing the IP for the server. The server was reasonably active, culminating in the creation of a Discord Server.

The server however was shut down unexpectedly and came back with another map on an older version of the game, which caused user Ikudea to be suspicious of the server creator, who organized the creation of a new server in the Discord Server by renting a server using the hosting provider ShockByte (which still runs the server). Due to a miscommunication, the user PreSuffix also rented a server in said hosting provider which became the Creative Server.

The server initially opened on March 16th, 2022, with FloppaVille being the first permanent residence of the server, being established shortly after the opening.

Trivia

 * The server's IP uses the domain the196server.xyz, which was chosen for the sole reason it was the only one user PreSuffix could afford.
 * It's known for constant lag and many crashes, and frequent rollbacks after crashes. The current reason for the problems are unknown, but speculated to be RAM-related.
