SoftSlayer

PvE, Survival

🔥 🔥 🔥

Info: Well where do I start… SoftSlayer has been around for about 9 years now, with a pretty dedicated community that still plays a bunch of games together (obviously including Minecraft). Our server is small and pretty simple, it’s a mostly vanilla atmosphere with a few things added like /home and /warps. Everyone is friendly and helpful with most things needed. PvP is disabled (we have a custom PvP arena to scratch your PvP itch), griefing is not allowed (mods will rollback if you get griefed) and you can lock your chests.

Rules: Just the basics here, no hacking, no overly vulgar/racist/homophobic chat, no griefing. Pretty much basic rules.

Whitelist: Join our discord server to apply for our whitelist!

Discord link: https://discord.gg/qNSMbEE We hope to see you around!
