Bits & Bytes Minecraft

bits & Bytes Minecraft (commonly known as bnbmc) is a bits & Bytes community Minecraft server first established in December 15th, 2017.

History

bits & Bytes Vanilla

The first iteration of this server was created on December 15th, 2017 as there were discussions of what a bits & Bytes Minecraft server would look like. No one on the discord server would expect a real Minecraft server until The Pixel Polygon (b&B member) decided to setup a server on Google Cloud. At the time, it ran on 1.12.2 and immediately grew traction when it was opened to the public for the first time.

During its heyday, most people would live under a building, now known as the bnbbnb. But as time moved on, people decided to leave that building to grow elsewhere. The area around the bnbbnb would turn into a city which is now Whale City.

While regular members enjoyed playing in the server's survival mode, the staff and The Pixel Polygon members had the added flexibility of seamlessly switching between survival and creative modes. This allowed for a more diverse range of experiences, but it also led to an increase in the complexity of infrastructural projects, many of which were challenging to construct within the limitations of survival mode. One notable infrastructure that emerged during this period is now known as AirCS.

Many cities and towns were established during this time one of the original ones were Whale City, Veronaville, Victor's Interesting City, Birch Boat Town, Birch Lodges, Alee Isle, and ShiftCity.

Unfortunately, server activity slowed down due to a modded server being present and the original vanilla server was shut off after.
