I found a new survival PvP server called RemakeSMP and it feels like one of those places where you join and instantly have to watch your back.
People run in teams and there are assassin groups too so it gets intense fast. The main vibe is fighting and trying to keep your stuff safe before someone takes it.
They also do tournaments every couple weeks and you can get really strong loot like the king's loot. There are basically no rules except you cannot cheat so it turns into full chaos but still fair.
