TPO SMP is a simple survival multiplayer server.

It feels like a small chill place where you just join and start playing survival with other people.

There is a website for the server too so it looks like they are trying to keep things a bit organized.

If you just want a normal SMP to hop on and play this one seems like that kind of server.

Beta Testingcommunity-drivenCustom Featuresdiplomacy gameplaygeopolitics serverlong termorganized conflictPlayer EconomyProgression basedRoleplay-friendlysemi competitiveSkill Grindingstrategy gameplaySURVIVAL PVPteam-basedterritory controltown nationTrade routeswar focusedworldbuilding focus

Lodestone is a Minecraft geopolitics and worldbuilding server that is going into a closed beta. It tries to give a fresh twist on the usual town and war style.

The main thing I noticed is the spice trade system. You harvest different spices and sell them at spawn and the land you control changes how good your spices are. This makes people want to fight over the best land so the economy and wars actually feel connected.

The server also uses Towny so players can make towns and nations and go to war with each other. There are chest shops so anyone can set up a shop with a chest and a sign and trade items with other players.

There is also Auraskills so you can level up a bunch of skills and unlock different abilities as you play. It fits the worldbuilding and war style because you keep growing your character over time.

To join right now you have to get into the closed beta by applying through their discord and then you can get the server IP from the how to play channel.

UneasyVanilla is a Minecraft server that mixes semi anarchy with normal survival so it feels wild but not totally crazy.

The world has been running for over 4 years so everything feels really lived in. Spawn is totally wrecked and covered in lavacasts so your first challenge is just escaping the chaos. Once you get out you can travel far away build bases and explore like a normal survival world.

The server tries to stay close to the original Minecraft vision so it feels very vanilla. There are rules but they are simple and mostly there to keep the server running well and to keep cheaters out. Staff are active and ban hackers fast so fights and raids feel more fair.

The community is pretty tight and relaxed. You can run into random players start alliances or get into surprise battles while exploring. Some people team up for big building projects and others just wander and survive on their own.

If you want a long term vanilla world with a rough spawn and a bit of lawless energy UneasyVanilla is a cool place to try.

Adult-onlycasual gameplaychill survivalcommunity-drivenevent focusedfriendly vibesinclusive spacelaid backlightweight pluginslong-term worldLow DramaNew serverplayer friendshipsrelaxed rulesSemi VanillaSmall CommunityStaff FriendlySurvival Focusweekly eventswholesome chat

FrostboundSMP is a small semi vanilla server that is still pretty new. It is meant for players who are 18 or older and it is only for non binary players and people who identify as female. The vibe feels calm and welcoming and it is not super sweaty or hardcore.

From what I have seen most of the server is simple survival with a light semi vanilla style. They host weekly events so there is always something to look forward to and it helps people get to know each other better. The server is not crowded and the most people online at once so far was about eight but there are around thirty people in the community already.

If you want a place that feels more like a small friend group instead of a giant public server this one fits that pretty well. It is nice for players who just want to chill and build and hang out with other older players in a space made for non binary and women players.
