This server is called Hardcore SMP and it is all about hardcore survival multiplayer. It works on Java and Bedrock and it does not reset the world. When you die you are done so every move feels super risky.
The server tries to stay really close to vanilla but it still has a few extra features to make multiplayer better. There is a coin economy that is totally run by players. You do not buy stuff from admin shops. You earn coins by killing mobs and looting chests and then you trade or use the auction house with other players.
There is also a strong land claim system. You can claim your base or farms so other people cannot grief you. Your stuff stays safe while you are offline. But if you die your claims get deleted and your land becomes unprotected so death is a huge deal.
Teleport commands are very limited. You get a one time use randomtp to go far into the overworld and you can invite others to come with you. You also have home and spawn but there are no tpa commands to other players.
The server is fully non pay to win. There is only one rank called VIP and it just gives cosmetic perks. The store also has a revive that basically resets your account so you can play again without buying a whole new Minecraft account but it does not give any unfair advantage over other players.
1K Border Lifesteal SMP With Spirit Mode

I found a Lifesteal SMP that is locked into a 1,000 by 1,000 world border so it stays packed and stressful. It is all about PvP strategy and survival and it is meant to feel competitive.
The lifesteal system is simple. If you kill players you gain hearts. If a player kills you then you lose hearts. Mobs do not change your hearts.
The cool part is the custom Spirit Mode they coded. When you would die at 1 heart you turn into a spirit instead of being gone. You drop your inventory and you cannot interact attack or pick up items. You are invisible and invulnerable and you get 30 minutes to survive like that and the timer keeps going even if you log off. During that time you can follow people and watch where bases are.
If the spirit timer runs out you get sent back to spawn and your hearts reset to 2. Then you go back to normal survival. They want people to stay in the game longer but still feel pressure the whole time.
You have to apply for whitelist to join.
