markbyron was the founder of TotalFreedom and the owner from November 2010 to June 2017.
Under his leadership he ruled the server with an iron fist, often silencing staff members who misbehaved and dismissing any dissent as "drama". Eventually in the first half of 2017 he grew sick of the atmosphere in the server and hastily transferred ownership to the Executive Security Officer at the time, TheMinecraft, before officially retiring from a position of power in late 2018.
Ever since then, he has shown a distaste for the server and its community due to the toxic atmosphere, to the point where he transferred the domain (one of the last things about the server he actually owned) to Wild1145 in September 2021 instead of renewing it.
History
2010 - markbyron creates Total Freedom
Mark was introduced to Minecraft by Madgeek1450, a friend of his from Second Life. Seeing the potential of a Minecraft server, he created what would become TotalFreedom on November 11, 2010. At the time, it was an 8 player slot server and was divided into two separate servers: "Hell" and "Earth".
2011 - End of the Nether Server
In May 2011, the release of Beta 1.6 made it possible to teleport to and from the Nether and Earth worlds in Multiplayer servers. As a result, he scrapped the Nether server and kept the Earth server.
2017 - Controversies and Stepping Down
Fed up with the atmosphere the server had at the time, Mark closed the server down on May 21, 2017 for a whole day and posted a thread on the forums about the whole situation, threatening to close the server as a whole if the atmosphere did not clear up.
