PurpleSMP is a small survival server that feels really calm and safe. It is made for people who just want to build and relax in newer versions of Minecraft without random players ruining everything.
This server is PvE focused and PvP is off by default. If you actually want to fight you can toggle PvP on for yourself with a command. There are land claims so you can protect your base and every block placed or broken is logged so griefers can be caught.
The server uses mcMMO so you get skills as you play and there are playervaults when your normal inventory is not enough. There is also a Bluemap so you can look at the world like a map in your browser.
Staff take cheating and rule breaking seriously. There is a strong anti cheat and when someone trips it staff get alerted right away and can check what is happening. Your inventory is backed up when you join or leave or die so staff can restore things if you lose items because someone broke the rules.
The world started as a friends only server and later opened to the public and the plan is to never reset. It is meant to be a forever world where your builds can stay for a long time.
VANILLA ANARCHY ON PURE OLD VERSIONS
I found a vanilla anarchy server that runs on Minecraft 1.3.2. It is the kind of place where there are no rules and you can do whatever you want.
They do not patch exploits and they only use official jar files. The server can update every week and the next version is decided by a vote.
They are going through every official server version and that includes snapshots and even the april fools ones.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPGOOMB SMP Season 2 Amplified Vanilla
GOOMB SMP is a vanilla survival server that is playing in an amplified world. The world got reset about a month ago so lots of people are still building up and finding spots for new bases.
At first the border made everyone live close together but now the border has been expanded so there is way more room for different plans. The End has been opened and players even started an egg hunt event so people can meet up and mess with the egg.
The community is really active with shop ads and trades and people sharing cool terrain screenshots. Voice chats are often full too.
Rules are simple and strict. Be respectful and mature. No hate speech. No NSFW. No griefing stealing or unconsented PvP. You have to apply in Discord to get approved and whitelisted.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP3b3t Full-Metal No-Rules Anarchy
This is the Full Metal side of the 3B3T twin servers and it is the dangerous one. It runs on Fabric and it is on a powerful dedicated machine so people can really push the limits.
It is an anarchy place where everything is allowed and the goal is to dominate at all costs. Players use every cheat and mod they can find and they build crazy stuff while fighting dirty.
It is Java 1.21.7 or newer and it is premium Minecraft only. There are no resets. You get graves and you can set homes but there is no /tpa.
If Full Metal feels too rough there is also a No Hax twin server but this one is for full chaos.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPClassic No Frills Survival SMP
This server is a classic survival SMP that tries to keep Minecraft feeling simple and real. It is made for players who just want to survive build explore and play with a friendly community.
There are no big gimmicks or overcomplicated stuff. It is more about working together and doing your own projects at your own pace.
If you want extra immersion there is optional proximity chat so you can hear nearby players in game.
There is also a community pixel project you can join with the /place command. It is like a big shared canvas where you place one block every 10 seconds and only wool counts so it gets pretty intense and funny.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPTrue Vanilla Hardcore Deathbans Crossplay
I found a true vanilla survival server that keeps it simple with minimal plugins and no ranks and no pay to win stuff.
It has a big world border so you can travel far and build out. The main twist is you get tempbanned when you die so staying alive actually matters.
When you first join you spawn with some starter items plus invis and regen so you can sneak away from spawn and get set up.
It works on both Java 1.21.11 and Bedrock 1.21.131 so friends can play together.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
