Reconnect · 2011

Find old Minecraft friends & teammates

A shared survival world or a long-running SMP can bind a friend group tighter than almost anything — until the server shuts down and the only thing left is a username. Post the Minecraft username and the server or realm you built on to track down your old co-op partner.

Often it isn't the game you lost — it's the MSN, AIM or Xfire that shut down, the old forum or IRC channel that got deleted, the Skype or ICQ that no longer exists, the TeamSpeak, Ventrilo or Mumble server whose IP stopped working. Usually a nickname is all that's left — and that's enough to start.

1

Post what you remember

The nickname or character name, the multiplayer servers and realms, and roughly which years — small clues are often enough.

2

The community helps

Anyone can share your post or recognise the player. A Cores bounty rewards whoever makes the connection.

Reconnect privately

When the right person claims the post, you confirm it and you're connected on XCORE.GG. No personal data is exposed publicly.

Finding old Minecraft friends — FAQ

How do I find someone I used to play Minecraft with?

Create a wanted post with the Minecraft nickname or character name you remember, plus the multiplayer servers and realms and roughly which years you played. The post is public and searchable, so anyone who recognises the player — including the person themselves — can respond.

I only remember their username — is that enough?

Often, yes. A distinctive Minecraft username plus the server and era is frequently enough for someone to recognise. Add any memory you have (a guild, a team, an inside joke) to improve the odds.

Is it free to post?

Posting is free. You attach a bounty in Cores — XCORE.GG's internal points — which is paid out to whoever helps you reconnect. Cores are not money and cannot be withdrawn.
