BareBonesMP is a hardcore plus survival server that feels like old school Minecraft. When you die you actually lose a heart and you can go all the way down to only three hearts. To get your hearts back you have to craft a special heart crystal with an echo shard and a diamond block.
You can even go above the normal ten hearts and reach up to twenty but those extra hearts are temporary. When you take damage the extra hearts disappear first so you really feel it when you mess up in fights or caves.
The gameplay is basically vanilla with no teleport commands. Fire spread works creepers blow stuff up and the world actually feels dangerous. Stealing and griefing are not allowed though so it is not an anarchy server. People are here to play hard Minecraft not to ruin each others bases.
This server has been around for years and runs all the time on a dedicated machine. There are quality of life plugins like sleep skipping leaderboards player heads armor stand tools and some other small tweaks but it still plays like normal Minecraft.
The community is active and kind of feels like a hermitcraft type server with a whitelist. There are weekend events monthly mayor elections and even an optional modded and extra hardcore server if you want something different.
There is also an optional proximity voice chat and chat that links in game and the community so people talk a lot and it never feels totally empty.
