This server is called Only Life and it is a hardcore semi anarchy world where you only get one life. If you die your death is permanent and you are banned. It feels really intense because every fight and every cave run actually matters.
The server runs on Minecraft 1.21.1 and uses vanilla gameplay so you get all the newest items and trials but without crazy custom stuff. There are no land claims and griefing and raiding are allowed so bases are never really safe.
Even though it is semi anarchy there is a strict anti cheat so hacks and xray are not allowed. It is supposed to be a fair anarchy style server where players win by skill and not by cheating.
The server also tracks stats like survivor rank and playtime so you can see how long you stay alive compared to other people. The whole vibe is just survive as long as you can and try not to lose your only life.
