This is a vanilla survival server with a really tight and active community. It is all about normal Minecraft survival with no crazy game changing plugins.
The server has player made lore that just happens on its own like wars and rivalries but you do not have to join if you do not want to. You can be a passive player and still enjoy the world.
There are public farms that everyone can use and a shopping district where people trade and build their own shops. It feels like a small town where everyone knows each other.
Griefing and hacking are not allowed. If someone does grief the admins have plugins to undo the damage and find out who did it. PvP is allowed but only if you want to take part in it.
The server only uses some light plugins like anti cheats and other stuff that does not change the vanilla experience. Players can suggest new vanilla style plugins like proximity chat and there is a good chance they get added.
It runs on the latest Minecraft version but people who like earlier versions can still join and play.

Adult Vanilla SMP With No Resets
Xapros SMP is a chill vanilla Minecraft server for adults with a global community. People are online across lots of time zones so it feels active when you log in.
The world is meant for long term play since it started in January 2025 and they say there will be no resets. It is a good place for big builds and projects that take forever.
There are no land claims because they want it to feel like real vanilla. Griefing and stealing are not allowed and there is a way to inspect what happened if something goes missing.
The server has a nice spawn area plus a player shop district that uses diamonds for trading. Travel is easier with connected Nether ice boat highways and there is Bluemap access to view the world.

Ordinary SMP is a vanilla Java survival server that stays updated and it is on 1.21.11. It feels like a tight knit place where people build together and explore without it being a mess.
It is whitelisted so the playerbase stays respectful. They also use Ledger to check activity so griefing and stealing can be investigated and your builds can stay safe.
The server has BlueMap so you can view the world on a live map. It also has Simple VoiceChat for talking in game plus AudioPlayer for custom audio. There are dragon elytra drops too.
There is a custom resource pack with cosmetics trophies and event rewards with a HermitCraft inspired vibe. They run server wide events like PvP battles build contests and big community projects so there is usually something going on.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill Cooperative Survival SMP With Voice Chat
Coop SMP is a laid back survival server where people actually work together and keep the vibe good.
I saw that it already has about 10 active players so it does not feel empty and people are around to talk and play.
It uses Simple Voice Chat so you can do proximity voice chat which makes mining and building with others way more fun.
There is also anti cheat to help keep things fair and the server is trying to stay away from any pay to win nonsense.
If you want chill survival where everyone builds grinds and hangs out in voice together this place fits that idea.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHelp Shape SableCraft Season One
SableCraft is getting ready for Season 1 and it feels like the server is being built with players in mind.
They are still finishing applications and getting the Discord set up but they want ideas first from people who might actually play.
There is a short survey where you can share what kind of vanilla plus gameplay you like what quality of life stuff you want what mods or datapacks sound good and what the rules and vibe should be.
They also want thoughts on events content ideas and the long term direction of the SMP. People who fill out the survey will hear first when applications and the Discord go live which they are aiming for Friday.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPEurope Nations SMP With Real Wars
I found this political survival server on Minecraft 1.21.1 and it is set on a full Europe map. The whole point is real player conflict over land and power.
There is no scripted roleplay and there are no admin made nations. Players make everything from scratch and it can all get destroyed too.
You can start a nation or a city and try to grow into an empire. Wars happen for territory and resources and the war system has real consequences.
People use diplomacy and alliances but also betrayal and propaganda. You can build capitals borders and big fortifications then fight to control trade routes and the economy.
It is vanilla plus with extra systems like alcohol and social mechanics. If you organize with other players you can actually rule.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
