Ancient Echoes is a whitelist SMP for people 18 and up and it is all about a world that feels alive. Players build together and hang out in voice and they run real community events instead of just grinding loot.
The server is on Minecraft 1.21.11 and they just did a huge push where the End island got fully cleared. Now everyone is starting a big gothic End city build on that empty space.
There are spawn decorations for Lunar New Year and it ends with a community event and a fireworks show. They also have a newer Nether highway and a portal network to make traveling easier.
They use a datapack setup like Hermitcraft for custom textures and models. You can see things like plushies hats pokemon figurines and trading cards as they add more.
They are super strict about being fair. No pay to win no paid cosmetics no donor perks and no special rewards. Event fights and events do not give out items that you cannot get in survival.
There is also a community jukebox with custom audio and rotating music so people can take turns being the DJ. Staff are also working on an Easter Island zone with boss fights and non combat events.
