This server started in 2020 when everyone was stuck at home and a group of friends just wanted Minecraft to feel like old Minecraft again. They were tired of huge plugin lists and confusing land claiming and all that stuff that makes things feel more like menus than a world.
Now most of those friends moved on but a smaller and really dedicated community stayed. The whole point of this place is to just hang out and chill and feel like you left real life for a bit. People hop on to talk and build and just exist together.
There are players from all over the world. The owner is from Australia and there are also a bunch of people from Europe and North America. It feels like no matter what time you join there is someone around.
The vibe is simple survival with a big focus on community. If you want a place that feels like Minecraft first and not like a minigame hub this server is built exactly for that.
