Avas.cc

avas.cc, also known as AVAS or by its full unabbreviated name Absolute Vanilla Anarchy Survival is a spin-off server of TVE that was originally created by Dutch2011 as a "refuge" to all the players that quit during the June 2020 major leaving, gaining popularity as the then donkey dupe of 1.15 was unrestricted. It is infamous for its owner having multiple mental breakdowns while operating the server in its first days, and for the general disdain the TVE community held towards it.

Dutch2011 was an OG player who joined the server in April 2020, actively playing with lots of members in the community and joining, then inheriting the ownership of popular group F Clan on June 2nd, 2020, which he relinquished just 2 days later in the wake of the June movement restrictions that enraged the majority of the community and sparked the first major leaving of TVE history in early June 2020. Following his departure, he created the avas.cc server to fund his privacy-based service The Cobet Project, and also act as a refuge for the older TVE players who wanted a "true" vanilla experience without restrictions, where dupes and glitches would not be patched.
Initially, this newfound server was met with many positive reactions, with multiple players switching to AVAS on launch day.
== Controversies and trolling ==
Dutch quickly attempted to get more people to join, using bots to raid the TVE server and also spam the Discord server with advertisements for AVAS, which soured the general opinion on Dutch's server and was met with great dissapproval. Still, over the course of a month, AVAS rapidly gained popularity and Dutch had to constantly keep up with improving server stability and patch lag methods, as the server was self-run.
The server quickly grew even more controversial, as Dutch made questionable, non-vanilla choices in his first days moderating the server, mainly distributing important commands and illegal items to players he liked, which led TVE players to ridicule the server for altering the original concept of staying close to true "vanilla" ideals and for being even less vanilla than TVE.
This caused many TVE players to want and troll on the server to mess with Dutch2011, as many TVE players already came everyday in the avas.cc Discord to mock Dutch2011 for his incompetence, including the then-owner of the server, penguin4215. In its early months, the server was inseperable from TVE culture, as it was dominated by the former TVE clans Lunaria and Wrath, both of which eventually left the server due to the general incompetence of the owner.
It was also widely known that Dutch was in a rough mental state from moderating the server, as he had a hard time keeping up with the server constantly crashing due to TVE players lagging the server (primarily members of Lunaria mass-spawning withers and travelling at thousand-block speeds). In an infamous incident, three members of the server were granted the /freeze command permission to freeze players who were lagging the server in order to combat the then-unknown laggers. Those three players included Lunaria member ezings, who instantly started abusing his permissions to freeze and hunt players of opposing clans for multiple hours (notably Wrath) until the owner stepped in to remove the permissions altogether. This incident, along with countless provocations from TVE players, led to Dutch2011 having multiple infamous mental breakdowns on Discord and banning every TVE player from the Discord server, separating himself as much as possible from the community.
Today, avas.cc outlived the TVE server, being still active and updated to the latest versions of MC as of 2024. The server, still managed by Dutch2011, bears almost no trace of TVE history as of today and has its entirely different culture, with the OG map being reset in a server transfer to remove illegal items. Nowadays, avas.cc has its own history, its own separate community and serves as a great vanilla alternative to anarchy Minecraft in 1.20, now also managing the PhoenixAnarchy server.
