About

OtterCraft is a friendly PvE, “mostly” vanilla Minecraft server started on 1/29/17. Unlike most servers, we have no land-claim system simply use the in-game /report command if you’re griefed or have any issues and staff will take the appropriate action as well as roll back any damage if needed, all reports automatically alert staff whether they are on or offline. Also, All of our ranks are balanced, and go directly against hosting a pay-to-win environment. Most of our community have been around for well over a year, and we’re all here to play good ol’e minecraft, and indulge in fun and friendly chat.
