This server is called Overtake Network and it is made for people who miss the old factions style from around 2014 to 2016. It is not about crazy modern stuff or pay to win menus. It is about raiding other bases doing real PvP and grinding your gear the normal way.
The combat is set up like native 1.8 so there are no hit cooldowns. You can spam click and block hit and use rods just like old school PvP. They really care about hit registration so fights feel smooth. You can join with newer versions like 1.12 but the combat still behaves like 1.8.
The main game mode is classic factions where you claim land build cannons and raid enemies. There is McMMO so you can level skills and get small advantages by grinding. The economy is balanced and built around farms mob grinders and a player auction house so players trade with each other.
There are vote rewards that actually give useful keys and items so voting feels worth it. They also say they have a strict anti cheat and they actively ban cheaters so fights are more fair.
The community is international with strong roots in EU and Bulgaria but the server uses English first and welcomes everyone. The map is brand new right now so you can start early and try to become one of the top factions before really huge groups join.

Origin SMP is a survival multiplayer server with a new season started and it runs on 1.21 for Java and Bedrock.
It is story driven and it feels more serious than pure anarchy. The big thing is the tier system with PvP progression. You can gain tiers by killing players and you lose tiers when you die so fights actually matter.
It also has proximity voice chat so you can talk to people right in game. There are no land claims so the world is shaped by trust and politics.
The map is finite at 2500 by 2500 blocks so you run into people a lot. It is semi anarchy so anarchy is allowed but random griefing with no story or purpose can get rolled back to protect long term SMP stuff. The community is friendly and active daily.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
