15 year old Minecraft server, MinecraftOnline.com, is threatened by Mojang Studios to moderate their Chat or be Blacklisted from Authentication Server

[Dandelions]

MinecraftOnline.com is a 15 Year Old Java Minecraft server with running on the same continuous world since August 4th, 2025, an hour after survival multiplayer got released by Notch. Its a Semi-Vanilla Survival Multiplayer with an extreme No-Grief policy. So strict in fact that every block placed and broken is tracked by the servers own custom plugins. Breaking even a single torch can risk you being banned if you aren't attentive the to moderators in chat. It's point is to preserve some of the oldest builds from 2010. Walking around spawn and you'll see the "Alpha Style Architecture" of the days long gone. Another specialty it has is its lax "Free Speech" policy in text chat. Only spam and harmful link sharing (like cheese-pizza) is banned. The lax moderation of chat where furries, provocateurs, horndogs can co-mingle has caught the attention of Mojang Studios IP Enforcement Team with them targeting this fundamental rule of the server. They had e-mailed the Admins a 7-day ultimatum to fix whatever they claim is wrong or be blacklisted from Minecraft Authentication.
This seems to be the first examples of how Mojang Studios Microsoft want to control third-party servers now....

The admin of the server, SlowRiot, shared this news today to the server's Discord Server and I hope I can share it with others.

Can you just not keep your degeneracy out of a single fucking kids game? Fuck you, I hope you get banned.

online for 15 years yet they think being blocked by mojang is the end all be all? get fucking real, theres always been offline mode and third party authenticators. would it be a pain in the ass to switch the server over to such a system? yes, but if its been running 15 years then it should be only a single bump in the road. how can one call themselves free speech and see not being on the official servers as a killshot? you mention furries so id assume that by free speech they mean grooming children who just so happen to stumble across their server. yiff in hell furfags, suffah!

 

[Disastrously Dumb]

I came in thinking its them not moderating the usage of the word
Nigger, Faggot and etc. because Free speech and all.

BUT in reality its a bunch of horny furries grooming minors.
i hope it DOES get banned.

 

[Stabby_Pencil]

Why is always the horny furries? Furries are not beating the pedo allegations, ever.

True, when I read "free speech", I thought it was because a bunch of chuddies were saying the nigger-word.

Why would you even need to be horny in a kids game's chat, besides for the purpose of grooming? At least just move off of the game to IRC or discord.

I see how this threads been derailed into furry hate, but if you ever see the chat logs this isn't even the majority amount of the users chat. Furries in the server are very few. It's international users speaking about the game, politics, and the trolls that come into and go one to test how far the rules can go. There was a funny incident recently where a user from Poland was talking about their 16 year old girlfriend while he was 19 and the Americans were getting angry because they couldn't understand their laws don't govern the world.

Hornyfagging (with consenting adults, not minors) and saying "nigger" are part and parcel. Once people arbitrarily decide you're being de-platformed for one, the other is always next in the crosshairs.

 

[WielkiWapiesz2137]

Not surprising considering thr fact that they added censorship in one of the recent versions, infact for a company that was censoring worlds in single player it is little bit surprising that they didn’t try it sooner. Minecraft have been only going downhill since 1.8

You probably should’ve said this in the OP then, and I think you should've provided what chat logs got in the server could’ve gotten it in trouble. The OP only gives information about furries and degeneracy and I assumed that is what is getting the server banned.

So no minors are getting groomed then? I think more information needs to be provided, I’m not sure what the exact problems could be making Mojang mad.

Came here expecting Nigger and Faggot logs.
Nope pedo furs.
You start to get angry when you see something and then immediately lose all steam when you look inside its just furries being abominations.

The lax moderation of chat where furries, provocateurs, horndogs can co-mingle...

I don't think Microsoft should control moderation on every Minecraft server, but I would certainly ban my kids from connecting to this server.

 

[catpetter]

I joined the server (9 pm AEST at the time when I joined) and it didn't seem like much was going on, I'll take another look tomorrow during the day and maybe even again on the weekend, depends if I remember or not.

 

[Hey Johnny Bravo]

Why do furries have to ruin everything?

This thread is actually kind of disturbing. You can get support to shut down basically any open platform by using vague accusations of EPI. You don't even need to get an "unrelated group" to spam CP anymore.
From my reading of the OP, Mojang aren't even accusing them of that. They make no specific claims of anything other than "harmful and disruptive behaviour". It's just because OP put "Furries" first in the list of random groups on the server and people instantly jumped to conclusions. Note that (as far as I am aware) this isn't a furry server - it's like (uncucked) 4chan with people from all around the place.
This isn't like Roblox. This isn't a company running a social media site for children. This is a private server intended for mature players.

So there's a furry that was promoted to a moderator, and then an admin back in 2011 just based on usernames alone.

There's the group of furries on the server apparently founded in May 2025.

OK. A server for adults has a furry group on it.
...and?
Should Mojang have the right to shut down any server they like? Will it be OK when they come after 2b2t and soycraft?
If they're abusing children, you know who should be involved? The fucking police! Not Mojang. Not Microsoft.
This is your typical reddit "is this 'free speech' platform just nazis?" struggle session with some words switched out.

 

[GeorgeFloydFentanylStash]

Good fucking riddance. Now to stick Furries in a camp.

for adults and has adults are two different things. if it doesn't have an age barrier then it's not for adults.

Should Mojang have the right to shut down any server they like? Will it be OK when they come after 2b2t and soycraft?

they already do and they already have.

If they're abusing children, you know who should be involved? The fucking police! Not Mojang. Not Microsoft.

i think pedo furries should be dealt with any means neccesary that is most expedient. it's not a dichotomy, microsoft can tell them to fuck off their game and people can tip the feds at the same time.

it is you who is reddit, stalker child.
