    I’ve had a server running without whitelist because a friend hadn’t bought the game yet, within 2 weeks it was griefed. It was just the two of us playing.

    There are crawler bots just searching for unprotected Minecraft servers and it’s just a matter of time before they find yours.

    It’s a shame the server lacks a pretty basic feature such as password protection.


  • The biggest thing is that you won’t know how long you will be able to play it. At some point they’ll stop updating the app, a new Android version will be released that’s not compatible with the app, or they will take down the server that the app relies on etc. It could be years, a decade, but at some point it’ll be either really hard or impossible to play anymore.
