I found Anarchy Network and it is a semi anarchy survival server that tries to feel like vanilla. It started on October 11th 2024 and it is hosted in New York City.
The server is online all the time and it lets you join on Java versions from 1.7.2 up to 1.21.11. They recommend 1.21.10 so stuff works better.
The world is huge with a 2 million block border and it says there are no map resets. There is no pay to win and there is no teleporting. PvP and griefing are fully allowed.
The only command they allow is spawn so players far away can get back to civilization. Nether roof is allowed. Phantoms are removed and only half the players are needed to skip the night.
They still block stuff like exploits lag machines duping and spamming. They also do not allow harassment or racial slurs in chat.
Relaxed No Reset 18+ Vanilla Plus SMP
HoneyBlossomSMP is a relaxed survival server that feels like classic Minecraft but with some Vanilla plus changes that make stuff easier day to day.
The pace is slower and people actually talk and work together so it feels more like a real community instead of everyone hiding in solo bases.
It is 18 plus and the world does not reset so your progress matters and big builds and towns can keep growing over time.
I saw features like player warps for getting around player shops for trading claims to help protect builds events for fun and a PvP toggle so fighting is optional.
You have to verify through Discord to join and that seems to help keep trolls out and keep things friendly.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCaldra SMP Roleplay Nations War Survival
The Lost Land of Caldra is a newly started SMP that leans hard into roleplay and fair survival. It is built around players making characters and building real connections between towns and nations over time.
The server tries to keep everyone on equal ground. Big automated farms like creeper iron gold and raid farms are not allowed. This pushes people to trade more and actually rely on other players to keep the world feeling alive.
Players team up to form nations and make their own laws and flags. Nations can also go to war so people can fight for honor and prove who is stronger. The Discord is active too and people share lore art and writing plus server news.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHermit Style SMP With Proximity Chat
casual longterm worldCommunity Build Projectsgroup friendly communityPlayer Run Economypublic build areas
This is a community centered SMP that feels like a Hermitcraft style world. It is made by the players for the players and the goal is to keep the vanilla experience while still growing over time if the community wants it.
The server uses a diamond based economy with a shopping district. There are also public builds and big projects that players work on together. Proximity chat is a big part of the vibe and most players actually use it.
There are homes plus some cosmetic and quality of life and fun plugins. New stuff gets added from community requests and polls. You will usually see around 5 to 20 people online during the day with lots of regular active players.
It is Minecraft 1.21.11 on Java only. It is whitelisted and it is 18 plus only.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPVanilla Survival SMP With Custom Structures
I found a survival server running on 1.21.10 and it feels like a mostly vanilla SMP with a clean setup.
The big twist is custom structures placed around the world so exploring does not get boring and you can stumble into cool stuff while roaming.
It also supports joining from multiple Minecraft versions because it uses ViaVersion and ViaBackwards so you do not have to be exactly on 1.21.10.
The community is small and still growing and the whole place is meant for building exploring or just chilling without feeling like another number. Performance is also said to be stable.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPAeternalCiv Geopolitical Nations And Warfare
AeternalCiv is a geopolitical civilization building server where players try to forge their own destiny. You can be a citizen or a king or queen or just live alone as a hermit and still fit in.
It uses reinforcement with Citadel and it also has snitches so actions can get noticed. There is warfare plus Movecraft so fights can turn into big vehicle battles.
There are Origins and RPG style mechanics with ValhallaMMO. You will also see Seasons levelled mobs custom recipes and Brewery.
The server started as a small friend group and now they want more people to grow the world together. It is still in active development so expect changes and new mechanics later.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHermitLike Season 2 Crossplay SMP
HermitLike Season Two is a new SMP that is inspired by HermitCraft and it is built for players who like to chill build and work together.
The server is on version 1.21.11 and it supports crossplay so Java and Bedrock players can be in the same world even on console.
It stays mainly vanilla with only a few quality of life and moderation plugins. There are no pay to win stuff and no voting crates or weird extras. There is no TP and no warps and no towny style systems and no land claiming.
The server is focused on trust and the rules are simple like no PVP no stealing and no griefing. There is an active staff team and a friendly Discord community.
Players are already setting up a starter village at spawn and you can join in. After the starting period there will be a communal shopping district. There is also an online live map so you can see builds and where people are.
It is still early game and the End is planned to open this Friday so it is a good time to jump in before things get too far ahead.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFresh Towny Factions SMP With Honor PVP
ArcticMC is a new survival server that just started a couple days ago. It mixes Towny and factions so you can build a town then claim land and make allies or fight for territory.
PVP matters here but it is supposed to be honorable. They have an honor system that gets explained in their rules so fights do not feel like pure chaos.
You can level skills with McMMO while you play. It feels more like an MMO since you train stuff like mining and combat and unlock special abilities.
The world uses Tectonic generation so the land looks realistic with big mountains and valleys. There are also custom items and even furniture but it is entity based so they plan limits to help with lag.
The community is described as calm and friendly. It sounds like a place to build grind and explore without everyone yelling all the time.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFriendly Social Skyblock SMP Hangout
I found a small Minecraft group that is trying to feel like a real friend circle. It is a Skyblock SMP where people play and also hang out in chat. There are around 10 active players right now and they are open to more people joining.
They do weekly gatherings every Wednesday night around 7 PM EST. The server is still open the rest of the time so you can hop on whenever you want and talk with people.
The community runs on a first name vibe or a simple nickname if you want. They care a lot about being respectful so it stays comfy for all skill levels.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFREE Paper Server Stress Test
I found a free Paper server running on 1.21.11 and it is being tested to see how well the host holds up.
It keeps things pretty simple with only a few plugins. You get Essentials plus mcMMO and MineGuard.
If you want a chill place to hop in and help test performance this one is open for people to join and mess around while it gets tried out.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
