This is a Hermitcraft style Vanilla plus SMP that is made for 18 and older players. Season 3 just started so the world is still really fresh and most of it is not explored yet. Everyone is still building first bases and starting up shops so it feels like a busy new town.
The server uses proximity voice chat and it is required so you actually talk instead of just typing. It makes the world feel alive because you hear people when you run past their base or in caves.
There is a diamond based economy so players trade and make shops and try to become rich before everything is taken. It is not pay to win and it is focused on being fair and community driven.
The gameplay is Vanilla plus with small quality of life stuff like mob heads armor stand editing invisible item frames player riding and being able to sit. There is also Bluemap so you can see the world change over time and the dragon drops elytra when the end opens so everyone can get wings.
Right now the story is that the community all started on a big mushroom island and made a safe hub there. There are starter events like a starter house event and there will be an end release event soon. The vibe is chill and collaborative and it looks like a good place if you just want to build hang out and be part of a long running season.

Australia Vanilla Anarchy No Rules
I found this server called LegacyMC and it is a raw vanilla anarchy survival world. There are basically no rules and you can play however you want.
It has no land protection and no teleporting. PvP is on and griefing and raiding are allowed so anything you build can get found and destroyed.
The world is meant to last with no resets and no admin messing with stuff. It started in June 2025 so it still feels like a newer place where you can make a real mark.
The server runs on dedicated hardware in Australia so it should feel smooth for Australia and New Zealand players. There is no monetisation and no pay to win and they say donations are not needed.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPQ-Craft Adult SMP Forever World Vibes
Q-Craft is a small survival server for adults only and it is trying to bring back the old school SMP feeling. People build and explore together in a forever world and it is not one of those chaotic PvP or anarchy style places.
The server started near the end of August 2025 and it has player run elections plus shops and events. There is a second election happening right now so new players can jump in and help decide what comes next.
To join you have to do a small application in their Discord so they can see if you fit the group and what you want from the SMP. The server uses a custom datapack and some quality of life mods but none of it is required and you can play fully vanilla.
The rules are the normal friendly survival kind like no stealing no griefing and no cheating. There are also a few small content creators around and they seem to want more people to play and hang out.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPPure Vanilla Anarchy Works As Intended
This server is straight up vanilla anarchy on version 1.3.2. There are no rules and nothing is patched so it feels like the real deal.
It only uses official jar files. The server can update every week and players vote on it.
They are going through every official server version including snapshots and even april fools versions so it can get really weird over time.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFresh Start Vanilla SMP Season 2
I found a vanilla SMP that is doing a real fresh start and everyone begins together for Season 2 on March 14 at 9AM AEST which is Friday evening in the USA
The first week is a tight 1000 by 1000 border and the Nether is closed so it stays really early game and focused. In week 2 the border expands and the Nether opens. The End unlocks two weeks after the Nether
PvP only happens if both people agree. Griefing and stealing are not allowed so it feels safer to build and trust people
Spawn is a flat plains area with rivers around it and there are villages nearby. Last season on day 1 it hit over 20 players and there is a short clip from Season 1 you can check out. The whitelist is open now and you apply through their DiscordGG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPChill Fabric Modded SMP With Voice
Lumoria is a chill Java 1.20.1 Fabric SMP that a small group of friends started and they want more people to play with.
The mod list is curated so it feels like it fits together. It adds new monsters plus weapons and armor. It also has mounts and extra resources. There is furniture and cosmetics too so building can look more lived in.
The main vibe is exploring and building together while finding new stuff. It is not meant to be sweaty or competitive.
They use proximity voice chat so you can run into people while exploring or talk while building and team up for adventures.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
