I found an SMP that is all about conflict betrayal PvP and loss. If you cannot handle dying or losing items then this is not for you. The server expects you to take hits and keep going.
Everything is meant to be fair. The world is brand new so there is still loot and structures around. Nobody is way ahead and there is no pay to win.
You cannot get offline griefed. If you are not online then people cannot destroy your base. But if you are online there is no special protection so raids can happen and fights decide what happens next.
The server is capped at 50 players and they want it to last a long time. Whitelist is required. It supports 1.16 to 1.21.11 and it works for Java and Bedrock players.
Mature Whitelist Vanilla SMP That Lasts
The Eternal Region is a community driven whitelisted SMP for mature players who want a calm place to play and actually get to know people.
It keeps the gameplay vanilla first but it adds a few quality of life changes like no phantoms anti enderman grief and double shulker shells.
The world border starts small and grows every day and it is currently set to 5000 by 5000. There is also Simple Voice Chat so talking in game feels more real.
They focus on anti grief protection and respectful standards. It is aimed at 18 plus players who want a long term world to build in with builders redstoners and explorers. Community events are planned for the future.
GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPNew Towny Factions SMP Just Dropped
ArcticMC is a survival SMP that mixes Towny and factions. It is pretty chill and it feels more relaxed than most servers. You can start a town and claim land then team up with other towns or go your own way and take territory.
PVP matters here but it is not just random chaos. They use an honor system and they explain it in their Discord rules so fights are supposed to stay fair.
It also has McMMO skills so you level up as you play. You can train stuff like mining and combat and unlock special abilities later.
The world uses Tectonic generation so the terrain looks big and realistic with mountains and valleys. There are also custom items and even furniture. The furniture is entity based so they plan to limit it per chunk to help with lag.
If you want a calm community where you can build grind explore and still have faction action this one fits that vibe.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPCozy Survival Builds No Drama Ever

I found a server called MinecraftOffline that runs on 1.21.11 and it is all about lifesteal anarchy
The world is permanent and they say there are no resets so whatever happens will stay in the history of the map
It also uses custom written plugins so the gameplay has unique twists and it is hosted in Finland which should feel nice for European players who want low latency

Parasitus is a modded Java apocalypse server with a modern horror vibe. You spawn inside a government Quarantine Zone called Alpigus and the whole thing feels like a ticking timer.
For the first 7 days everyone is trapped behind the wall while the grid is still stable. When the power fails the wall opens and the Nether unlocks and you can craft Ender Eyes.
After that the server hits Grid Failure Protocol Orion and a nuke drops inside the wall and wipes everything in the zone. If you do not escape before that happens you are basically done for.
It is not hardcore and there is land claim to stop griefing and PVP. The claim does not stop stealing and you can toggle PVP in claims with commands. The goal is to survive the early days then build a real base outside the walls while the parasite threat keeps growing.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPSemi Anarchy Teams With Custom Powers
