Rosedalean SMP is an 18 plus Minecraft survival world that feels a lot like Hermitcraft but with its own twist. It runs with add ons so you do not have to mess with big mod packs and it still feels pretty close to vanilla.
The community is very welcoming and has a mix of casual players and more dedicated grinders. There is an application process so trolls and griefers get filtered out which keeps the server calm and friendly. People can join or make factions build big bases or just make a cute little village with animals.
The server uses simple voice chat so talking with other players is easy. There are special world generation features like new biomes for better exploring. There is also a ticket system to ask for help and a map you can check to see how the world looks.
There are community events running like a wild west build event and players can suggest new ideas too. The staff takes suggestions seriously because they want the server to keep getting better. If you like enhanced vanilla survival with a mature group this server fits really well.

Heart Destruction is a lifesteal SMP where every fight actually matters. If you beat someone you can steal their hearts so PvP feels super serious and personal.
