WakeCraft is an Australia based survival server that tries to put players before profit and build a dedicated active community.

Everything like ranks perks and items are earned free in game so you are not dealing with paid power.

Griefing is not the vibe here because land claims let you protect your builds and even set flags like mob spawning and pvp. If something gets damaged it can be rolled back using block logging.

The economy is built around jobs an auction house and player to player selling. You can also make your own player shop.

There are upgraded spawners that can boost mob amounts and reduce spawn delay. Crates are free and keys come from voting so you can roll for strong armor and tools.

At spawn there is an enchanter NPC that sells custom enchanted books. You can do quests for money and run dungeons for a challenge.

When you die your items go into a grave so you can grab them back. There are PartyGames with a bunch of minigames in a row and points decide the winner. McMMO lets you level up lots of skills.

There is a BlueMap live map and there are resource worlds for the overworld and nether so resources stay available. Daily rewards give you stuff for logging in and you get a cosmetic key every 5 days.
