Are you tired of boring old Minecraft servers with the same old rules and restrictions? Well, do we have the server for you! Join our wild and wacky Minecraft SMP where the only rule is to have a good time (and maybe not blow up spawn too many times).

Our server is so crazy, we once had a player build an entire roller coaster made out of diamond blocks! And don’t even get us started on the time someone tried to tame a creeper as a pet (spoiler alert: it didn’t end well).

But the real reason you should join our server is because we have our very own IRC server! That’s right, you can chat with your fellow players in real-time while you’re mining for diamonds or battling mobs. Who needs Discord when you have old-school IRC?

So come on down to our server and join in on the madness. Just be prepared for anything and everything to happen – because on our server, the only limit is your imagination (and maybe the occasional server crash).

The Third Realm

Factions, PvE, PvP, Survival

The Third Realm is intent on staying as vanilla as possible, yet allowing players to form groups and communities. The spawn is minimal as it is felt that players should be the ones who define the world, not the staff. Factions allows players to fight for a cause, or merely for the sake of fighting. The world extends out from spawn in a circle of 10,000 blocks. This may be changed later, but seems reasonable for now. Remember… this is your world. Shape it as you see fit.

DivinityCraft

Factions, PvE, PvP, Raiding, Survival

DivinityCraft is a one of a kind survival server. It has unlimited Factions PvP, custom-made world and a realistic economy that makes any profession possible. Our only rule is that members do not behave in a way that harms the community, like cheating or acting immature. Everything else is allowed, including griefing and killing.

The most important part of the Divinity experience is the realistic economy. Much like in Vanilla, minerals such as diamond, gold or iron is used as currency. We originally used a virtual currency system together with a dynamic virtual market, but we decided to go back to old roots again. Currency is now something physical, something real, instead of being a made up number. This can be used to purchase goods from other players, either directly or through shop-signs in cities or trade-hubs.

Only want to raid other factions? Crush them, take their valuables for profit; invest in new gear and enchantments. If you’re good at building grinders, you can make a living out of gathering XP, enchanting items and selling them. If you’re the more peaceful type you can even for example work as an animal breeder, get spawn eggs from them by killing them and sell them for profit. With a realistic economy the possibilities of how to make money and play on the server are almost endless.

Wheelchair Apocalypse is a fairly new Minecraft community.

We’re a network of servers. Currently, there is two Minecraft servers that you can access. The Factions server, and the Towny server. The Towny server is the main one, and has all the newest updates and such. You can access the Factions server from a portal in the main Towny server. The portal is behind the spawn on the Towny server. Also, the Factions server is more of an experimental server that may have some downtime.

We are currently hosting servers for multiple games, like Garry’s Mod, Terraria and 7 Days to Die.
