Welcome to SteeltonMC. This server is founded by myself, Classic. This server is an attempt to provide a free, enjoyable, and reliable gaming environment for people of any demographic.

The server is set on Hard Difficulty. We have a curated selection of premium Plugins to make everyone’s stay here more enjoyable. All our plugins are extensively configured and formatted to create a more stable atmosphere. You are not bombarded with flashing colors, weird whacky ranks with symbols, or otherwise off-putting eye cancer.

Our server does not have a “Central Hub”. There is no Skyblock, Prison, or other game-altering separate variations. Everyone on our server is enjoying themselves, interacting with the community, or keeping to themselves in peaceful solace while exploring the lands.

Our server comes equipped with a single /Spawn which will be the heart of our server. We encourage all our users to help shape the future of SteeltonMC for yourself, and many others to enjoy. Included at this Spawn will be a handful of NPCs. You may interact with these non-player characters, they may have something interesting to say, or service to provide.

The Plugins I was referring to earlier would be too much to explain here, so a recap would be the following. “You may buy and sell items at a central server Auction House. You may walk and deposit items, money, and EXP at the SteeltonMC Central Bank. Ability to create Server Warps for everyone (or no one) to use! Mining and Fishing have received a completed and revolutionary overhaul with gems, fossils, upgrades, and more! A popular MMO Skills plugin to level up a myriad of other abilities. View a live 3D Map Rendering of our world, visit your builds, or explore the land from a bird’s eye view. Upgradeable “Wireless Hoppers” to keep yourself busy, why not turn this into Factorio? Ability to buy directly from the HeadDB Database, and decorate your world with fitting assets or funny memes. This list goes on and on, we are careful to be selective and only use the highest quality plugins, constantly updating.

That will bring us to our next topic, the Economy. Now, those wonderful features do usually come at a cost, as an incentive, and create a positive gameplay loop. It is not difficult to sustain, and making players grind or limit you is not one of our goals. You earn money by playing the game. Fishing, Mining, Quests, Etc. You will naturally progress as time goes on.

Our team would be happy to have you join us, and we hope you do.-Steelton Staff
