Salute to the man who randomly named a bat dingbat a decade ago.

I love the fact that almost nobody realized bats were missing until a near decade after they were endangered

Huge respect to DINGBAT for being the only bat in 2b2t

Bats are like the most forgettable mob in minecraft, yet they somehow have in interesting story in 2b2t, where literally every item has an interesting story

Knowing 2b2t i feel like theres now going to be some griefing group coming together to find the last bats and cause an extinction. RIP bats

I find it so funny no one cares about bats but having one as a pet on 2b is a massive flex now 😂

Bats are back! As of October 1st, 2023, a naturally spawning bat can be found in (399,53,7821) in 2b2t overworld. (I took several screenshots as proof) And according to 2b2t subreddit, bats aren't as rare as this video says.

This man put more work into finding why a virtual bat is going extinct than most counties do for any of their real animals.

"Only together can we save these majestic digital animals" -- FitMC, conservationist extraordinaire

This is incredible, it's so fascinating how one of the most annoying and useless mobs in Minecraft becomes the rarest mob on the server.

Minecraft Bat -> Extinct in the wild (there are live specimens in captivity) A conservation plan is required in 2b2t. PS: Obviously it's all Popbob's fault.

So if I just located a bat today, how would I go about telling FitMC? I snagged pics, and it's blocked into a glass terrarium from someone long before.

I love that the bats, as the most annoying and useless mob in Minecraft, are basically absent from the most annoying server. Surprised someone didn't have a room packed full of them somewhere

It’s funny how bats are associated with sometimes scary or spooky things and the number left was 13 before they despawned

I don’t play 2b2t, heck, I don’t play anarchy servers, but Fit’s channel is so fascinating to me. I mean in MILLIONS OF CHUNKS and a DECADE later, a SINGLE bat still exists. I wish my best hopes to Dingbat

I love how fit can take the most basic, uninteresting topic and make it the most entertaining video I've seen

For so long I wanted to know why I have not seen a single BAT in any of your videos Sunday Base hunting streams and lore vids and I had hoped it would be covered, and here it is. Finally.

I imagine that the reason House stopped prevented the server from spawning more of them was because they'd clog up caves and because since they virtually had no fucntion (the are passive, don't drop anything, and often become annoying), he figured that by not having them at all nobody would bother.

Whoever named Dingbat, I salute you, hero. 🫡

Crazy how people used to say bats are annoying and useless but now they are more rare than the blue axolotl in 2b2t. Bats deserve this support and I'm happy people see this mammal now

Dingbat must be the loneliest bat on the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft

the talent this man has to make anything about 2b2t interesting is beyond me

It's still super impressive and cool that people like myself (who are old enough to remember the alpha of Minecraft) are still active players. I remember when the trope was all Minecraft players were kids, but now the game has been a staple so long it really isn't surprising to hear a fully grown, deep voiced man narrating a Minecraft video. Makes me feel less odd.

I just found your channel and while I love the video topic I just couldn't get over your voice 😂 you have like the perfect narrator voice and I love it

By the way, bats are not the only mob that doesn’t spawn anymore. Some other mobs, the most notable being the ocelot, also no longer spawn.

Next video be like : How a group of players managed to track down and exterminate the last bats on the oldest anarchy server in minecraft to prevent an in-game covid outbreak.

The FF music you put in every video is so enjoyablr but also so distracting lol. My mind immediately searches my memory for what i would most likely be doing or seeing if i was playing the game. I think this one was from FF9

Loved the video @FitMC! Can't wait for the next video man! This video has brought up another "Complaint" against the 1.19 "Wild" Update. Because bats feed on Insects, Minecraft had the Chance to allow the Players to tame and Breed Bats.... With the Firefly mob. But No, instead we end up getting the Frogs. And now on 2b2t they are on the Red list of Endangered Species!

I've just realized how crazy it is how anonymous and quiet Hause has remained, despite the fact that he runs one of the most renowned servers in Minecraft.

So 2B2T has: - a custom spawn biome - different Ender dragon ai - endangered species - mega-ocean - new and unique pvp meta - economy Idek how they manage to break the game in a new way every time i take a look at it

Some 2b2t player has a pet bat hidden and is shaking in fear

Been watching fit for years on and off. For years just waiting to get a good pc just to one day explore 2b2t fit has done an amazing job of documentation of the history of the server. Continues to make my poorness bearable

Never would have thought that i would watch a 10 minute video of a man talking about bats in a video game

It's crazy how fit always has new topics to talk about for 2b

I never played 2b2t, but the fact the server exists for so long and has gone through multiple versions of minecraft is so cool. It's like a giant archive of the minecraft community throughout the last ten years.

I don't even play or plan to play this server, but watched anyway and wishing you all the best to the bats effort haha!

This is quite possibly the coolest 2b2t video I've seen to date, the fact that a mob could legitimately be facing extinction is nuts. My only fear now though is somebody's gonna go looking now, and that somebody won't have good intention for Dingbat, or any other remaining bats out there

Kinda wild. The only other significant bat that I know of is the one which broke ilmangos tunnel bore / ice highway flying machine. Took him awhile to figure out how it stopped working, but fortunately he had it recording for a timelapse, so he found the answer.

yay a 10 min video about bats thank you fit

Now that I think about it, I feel like I have encountered some before. Somewhere out in the 100k radius in 1.4 mineshafts back when I would just pillage dungeons and what not for whatever I could find.

When fit uploads on a weekday you know there’s something weird going on

This server is facing a species extinction now. I should really stop being suprised at this point

At 4:33 rn and gonna make a prediction. Someone just has a lot a lot, of bats in one place, and that stops bats from spawning naturally because of the mob number cap. It's like a giant scavenger hunt for the bat hoard somewhere. Maybe they're all invisible or something idk lmao. If no one had found them after extensive searching, they're extremely well hidden.

This is insane bro

If the bats are despawning when the players get close, then the server almost certainly has to be removing them. I think they're probably disabled because otherwise they'd fill up hollow lava casts and hurt server stability.

As a (former) professional videogame tester, I gotta say that I find your coverage of the action on 2B2T to be some of the most fascinating forms of 'videogame news' on KZfaq. It's definitely inspired me to think of much bigger problems to look for in ways I never considered, and I often recommend you as a channel to study for anyone in the videogame industry, even outside of Minecraft. I'm always looking forward to your next video, please keep up the awesome work Fit! :)

after the 1.19 update, i have come across a bat, but i don't want to go public with the coordinates...

Dingbat is probably older than some people that have logged onto 2b2t😭

After this, I feel bad for bats in Minecraft, they truly are the most overlooked mobs in the game

I think that you may have spawned two groups those who seek to preserve, and those whom will finish the extinction event.

last time i saw a bat in 2b2t was around 2019 to 2020 when i played for a while and found a nether portal under an ocean in a cave, there were one or two bats there but without thinking i chased and killed them, but my guess is that those are the spots bats would most likely be, under frequently traveled encased caverns down below the ocean since it would be loaded and unnoticed by players

i remember the time fit killed a bat on one of his videos of the southern canal. i wonder how he feels about it now.

There should be a bat conservation group for 2b2t. Finding and nametagging bats to keep them alive

This makes me wish I'd risked going into 2b2t back when I first found your channel. One of the first things I do within my first week of any server is find a bat and name it Charles, in honor of the one I'd found when I was about 13? That'd been around when I first started, and didn't like the thought of having to punt them. And funnier still, at the time I thought they could bite players on a very low rate, and yet I still kept him around and eventually forgot that assumption I'd made Maybe if I'd tried to go in around then, I'd have thought to ask if anyone had seen any bats And then likely debated on risking following coords on a bat falsely given, just for the chance of having Charles again, hah

The banjo tooie music made it better thank you

a whole bunch of griefers are about to go (on) a bat hunt now

so dingbat is 10 years old that means in about 10 years he dies from old age, thanks to the 1.26 aging update giving them the realistic lifespan of about 20 years

I have absolutely no idea how but I guessed there were 13 bats and somehow got it right

There was a bat in 2021 near My old base, I can try finding it when I find some free time to play, college takes up a lot of time

Not Gonna lie but it's honestly pretty hilarious that Fit goes from talking about how you can save money whilst buying online to talking about how an animal is facing extinction inside the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft, why can't I stop laughing at this lmfao

I saw one just a year ago about 2 million blocks north. It had a name tag and was named Jerry (it belonged to my friend as I was at his base). At the time I didn't know they were rare as I was relatively new to the server.

i love how the most replayed part of the vid is the end of the sponsor

I found one when I was on today. Thought nothing of it. Now I’m regretting I didn’t name tag and make a home for it 😅

Can we just appreciate the fact that people are taking critically endangered species as serious on a block game as in real life

Props to Dingbat for keeping his species alive

This Feels Like A IRL Extinct Animal Discovery Show

6:00 Hot damn, I recognized this music instantly. This is the theme for the "Land of the Damned" level in Serious Sam: The Second Encounter.

they should add bat wings as a drop and let it make potions of floating, then you could splash potion people with them

Cant wait for a new group to form called Bat Hunters and make these bats go extinct

This channel is amazing.

"Random ghast fireballs out in the middle of nowhere" My private creative server had a ton of those.

Its possible that a plugin turned the bats into chunk loaders since 1.4 And a player loading those chunks allowed the server to reset them. And update the AI of the bats to the current version. Causing them to despawn after the chunks were unloaded.

Haven’t watched in a month, just now felt the need to watch youtube saw the notification and just remembered how fun it is to watch FitMC! 🔥

Cool info, Fit! I had no idea! #ModSquad #FitFam

The only bats left on the server are the ones used to break kneecaps.

Fit is still a legend! Thank you for posting!

Im not even joking right now, at the beginning when you said "the number is lower than I expected" or something around those lines I took a guess and went with 13 bats. Pretty crazy now that you just said the same thing!

i seen to of them in spawn. i just started 2b2t today. try other anarchy servers but always wanted to play 2b2t

Love Fits episode, when i saw the notification i knew its gonna be a banger, love ya fit 👍

And so the hunt is on. I wish dingbat luck with his continued survival

Hey fit. Just wanted you to know ive been a fan for a long time. And as one of the oldest 2b2t youtubers i want to be the first to ever watch all your videos in full.

Your delivery is so compelling that there was a moment where I forgot we were talking about Minecraft and not real bats

Containing bats can be so hard, too. I had one who spawned in my home's under caves. Getting him up into my main house and in a safe room was a LONG endeavor.

This guy takes so much time out of his day to bring us amazing content, rock on brother

I made a few pet bats in an underwater shaft. There was four tagged. Bill,phill,dill and Philip. Unfortunately this was a a few months ago. I don't remember where I made that base but if you find it, there's a few diamonds

“Hey guys I had this extra name tag that I didn’t know what to use for, so I just named a random bat dingbat lol” - that random guy 10 years ago

There might be some in the nether as well because those pesky little creatures can easily get trapped in there from underground nether portals in vanilla worlds

Only on 2b2t would saving Minecraft bats from extinction be a serious issue.

The history of this server could have enough history books to fill an entire library!

i actually guessed 13 a second before @fitmc said it. i was so happy i yelled out-loud

It will never cease to amaze me that you're still able to find shockingly interesting topics about this server

This feels like the whole world is finally agreeing on protecting something

I recognize that mineshaft 👀 ima have to see if the bay is still there

because it was only 184-5k (i dont remember) wide map, past it (185-6k+) may have bats as well.

I love how Fit makes content about 2b2t in the most random things.

This video made me wonder, which mob is the oldest on 2b2t ?

I Need To Know More About The Extinction Of Bats On 2b2t, This Is So Interesting!

i remember somewhere in a video, someone comented something like: "fitmc is soo good making videos that makes something useless into something usefull that sometime he is going to make a video abount bats"

When I guessed the number of bats the mapping project has found I guessed 12 and when I heard 13 I was astonished at how close I was
