markbyron or Mark is the founder of TotalFreedom, who served as its Owner from November 2010 to June 2017.
He ruled with an iron fist, often silencing staff members who misbehaved, and dismissing any dissent as "drama".
In the first half of 2017, he grew sick of the server's atmosphere and hastily transferred ownership to the sitting Executive Security Officer, TheMinecraft, before officially retiring from a position of power in late 2018.
Since then, he has shown a distaste for the server and its community over its negative atmosphere. After his departure, he continued to pose a threat to the server. Until September 2021, Mark held control over the domain and its CloudFlare credentials, so Owners were compelled to keep themselves and the server in his good graces. Mark finally cut himself off from TotalFreedom entirely when he transferred the domain to Wild1145 instead of renewing it.
