The roots of District One began around 2009/2010
with HellbourneProject.com, a community-driven
gaming network built around multiple games,
clans and guilds.
Community leaders could manage their own
TeamSpeak 3 channels, game servers, forum
sections, website areas and community
administration while remaining part of a
larger gaming network.
The TeamSpeak 3 server supported up to
512 users and provided a central place for
the different communities to communicate.
The Minecraft Years
Minecraft became one of the biggest parts of
the community and helped establish the
District One identity.
Two dedicated Minecraft servers were operated,
with one reaching around 30 players and the
other around 40–50 players.
A teleportation system connected different
Minecraft worlds, allowing players to move
between them as part of one community.
Terraria — A New Beginning
Terraria later became another part of District One.
Two Terraria servers were created and reached
more than 20 players.
The End of the Original Era
Over time, games changed, players moved on and
maintaining dedicated infrastructure became
increasingly difficult.
Financial constraints eventually meant the
original servers had to be retired, but the idea
behind the community never disappeared.
The Return
In 2026, District One returned with modern
dedicated hardware, automation, improved
management tools and high-speed connectivity.
That technology allows the original vision to
evolve: District One can operate its own
communities while also helping other gaming
communities run servers of their own.
