This is a semi vanilla survival server where the owner and some friends built their own custom features. The code is made for this server only and most of the textures are made by the community so it still looks like normal Minecraft but with their own style.
The server has some quality of life commands and features that make survival smoother without changing it into a crazy modpack. They use plugins like GriefPrevention to protect builds and Simple Voice Chat for players who like to talk in game. CoreProtect is there to keep things safe and squaremap helps with maps.
They do not spam you with crates or random cosmetics. It feels like they care about quality over quantity and want players who like survival and want to try something a bit different but still familiar.
The staff and builders are listed clearly so it feels like a small close team that actually plays on the server too.

This server is called Viking Factions OG and it is all about old school factions and 1.8 style combat but on a modern Minecraft version. It just had a fresh wipe so everyone is starting out at the same time.
The main focus is classic factions with real cannoning and pot pvp that actually takes skill. It uses 1.8 combat mechanics so fights feel fast and competitive. There are ranked duels with ELO if you want to test yourself in more serious pvp.
The server is not pay to win. Ranks are cheap but not overpowered and the perks are cosmetic only. The economy is made to feel balanced and raiding is supposed to be fair so it is built for players who want real competition instead of people buying power.
There are custom dungeons with special loot so you can explore and gear up in different ways. The server also runs KoTH events twice every day so factions have reasons to fight and control areas. There is a sign shop for in game items to help with normal survival and faction life.
The staff team is active and mature and they say they listen to players. The whole server feels like it is aimed at people who miss real cannoning real pvp and fair factions and want that experience on a newer version of Minecraft.

This server is called HoneySMP and it feels like a small friendly world where everyone actually knows each other. It is not one of those giant pay to win servers. Instead you can earn stuff like ranks and keys just by playing and grinding.
The whole vibe is about community. At spawn there is a community chest area where people take what they need and leave extra items for others. It really helps new players get started and makes the place feel welcoming.
They run weekly events like Elytra races and a custom event called Honey Heist where everyone hops in voice chat and plays together. It seems like the kind of server where events are actually social and not just random minigames.
There are some custom coded features too. There is a key forging system where you can combine keys and try to upgrade them into better ones. The server also has a player driven economy so you can sell stuff from your farms and run shops.
The server is crossplay so Java and Bedrock players can all play together. It is good for people who just want a long term home to build bases run shops or just hang out and talk.

Astral Swords is a hardcore vanilla SMP where you only get one life and every move feels scary.
I saw players working together and also going solo and both ways look super intense. There are no fancy extras so it is just you and Minecraft and the world trying to kill you.
The server runs on Java 1.21.10 and it is meant to feel unstable and tough. When you die your run is over so people think before they fight or explore.
Everyone uses Discord to stay connected and plan runs and events. The community feels like it really wants hardcore challenge and true survival with no extra fluff.

PeaMC Classic Vanilla Survival
Casual Communitychill survivalclassic buildingclassic feelexploration focusedfriendly playersjava bedrockLight Ruleslong-term worldModern VersionsNo Griefingno land claimsno pay to winold school vibePure Survivalpvp allowedSurvival Focusteam-based playtravel by footvanilla friendly
PeaMC is a pure survival server that feels like old school Minecraft. There is no teleport so you actually walk and explore the world. There are no land claims and no weird plugins in your face so it feels a lot like singleplayer but with other players around.
The server is vanilla style and PvP is allowed so you can still fight people. But there are clear rules about no griefing and no stealing. You cannot destroy other peoples bases or kill their pets or take items from their builds. Spawn killing is not allowed either.
They also ban hacks and exploits and you are not allowed to use destructive PvP like respawn anchors end crystals or minecart PvP because that can wreck builds. So fights are meant to be fair and not just blowing everything up.
Crossplay works between Java and Bedrock on a wide range of versions. You can make teams and invite your friends and build together. The owner and staff are active both in game and in Discord and the community is described as chill and friendly.
If you want a server that feels simple and classic and you just want to survive travel build and meet people without tons of extra features PeaMC is built for that.
