If you’re looking for a server where you can play Minecraft the way it was meant to be played (with some awesome extra features) this is the server for you. We are a legit SMP server – there are no spawned items, no WorldEdit, and a wide variety of places to call home. There is no whitelist, you can join with a cracked client, and anyone can build anywhere that isn’t protected! There is a large amount of cities and towns, as well as the option of living in the wild; but watch out – PVP and griefing is allowed outside of cities! However, you can protect your wilderness home with a useful plugin called PStones.
