If you are an active player in Minecraft 0.14.3/0.15.10, chances are you’ve heard of PortalWix and you’ve played it at least once in your life.
However, after the controversy between me and Tubunga, the previous owner, in summer of 2024, you probably lost track of who owns it.
Quick side note: Tubunga refuses to forgive me and completely disappeared.
2024 was a chaotic year for the whole community. LightWix was temporarily shut down and all servers were inactive as PortalWix received massive praise and activity; it was dominant. The beef started when I got demoted because I was “inactive” while my password kept being reset by a random admin Tubunga never caught.
On top of that, cusses and completely normal words like “lag” were being censored in chat. Still to this day, I’m completely against blocking even just swear words. I believe people should have the right to cuss because it’s just a videogame! So I told Tubunga to unblock at least normal words, and his attitude was dismissive and arrogant.
A few months later, I met Abo3leesh. He was the victim of Tubunga’s arrogance and hostility. Since then, Tubunga has always been our rival. After the controversy, the PortalWix admins leaked the plugin pack for the server.
Around the end of 2024, they were working on a new server called EnderParadise they would release at New Year’s Day. This wasn’t a classic server; You had to apply to actually enter it. Nothing wrong with that. However, they required your phone’s IMEI to actually access the server! That is far beyond insane if you just want to access your Minecraft server. IMEI is sensitive data after all.
As soon as I noticed that, I didn’t wait another second to call them out.
After that controversy was over, they turned off the whitelist and made it available to the public. In late 2025 the project was shut down…because they didn’t have enough funds for their VPS! With the PortalWix pack being leaked, Abo3leesh took the chance and re-launched PortalWix branded as PortalWix 2.0.
I hope I’ve given you an idea of why this beef happened. After all, Abo3leesh is the current owner of PortalWix, and the server is actively developed and maintained.
