This is a semi vanilla survival server that feels a lot like Hermitcraft. The world is on hard mode and runs on version 1.21.10. It is whitelisted and the community is focused on working together and being friendly.
Most players are in their early to mid 20s. People here like to hang out joke around and build stuff together. The vibe is laid back and low stress so it feels good to log in after school or work and just play.
The server is mostly vanilla with a few plugins that help moderation. There is no teleport commands or land protection and no changes to normal vanilla mechanics. There is a soft border at 8k but you can explore past it if you want and the land outside might get reset later for new content.
There are datapacks like armor stand tweaks mob head drops and invisible item frames plus some others. There is also a big dynamic map where you can see builds almost in real time. Around the world there are shared community builds like a shopping mall a campground and farms.
The server hosts fun events most weeks so there is usually something going on. Everyone is encouraged to give feedback and ideas on how to improve things and to get to know each other on discord while playing together.
