My wife and I started playing Minecraft over a decade ago and have grown a healthy community to play with over the years. We of course use Discord and if you’re interested in playing with us, please use the link below to join and tell us a little about yourself before we whitelist you. We try our best to avoid kids and weed out any annoying players, so please don’t join if you fall in these categories. Most of us are in our late 20s/early 30s. Our primary goal is to provide a truly vanilla experience, I’ll include some other various information about our current world and playstyle below.

• Age 25+, please.
• No Ranks or Moderator positions. Over the past 10 years my wife and I have run this server independently and successfully. We also play the game by the same rules as all other players.
• No area claim plugins.
• We started a new map on June 9th, 2023 with the 1.20 update.
• The world border is currently set at 10k blocks in every direction from spawn, but will be expanded in the future.
• We’re a smaller community with usually only ~8-12 players online at peak times
• Render view distance is set at the maximum of 32 Chunks.
• We play on Hard difficulty
• We have a separate Legacy Server to view all our old maps, and a Creative server to play around or practice your build or redstone machine.
• Our goal is to have as vanilla of an experience as possible, any exceptions to this are listed below.
• Enderman and Creeper griefing are turned off (Villagers still work for trading and block editing).
• We use DynMap.
• We use DiscordSVR which bridges in-game chat with a Discord channel to allow everyone to chat with people in game when they can’t be on.
• AFK players won’t be counted towards the total number of people needed to sleep in order to turn it to day.
• We have a plugin that allows players to change their in-game chat text color.
• The only other plugins we use are for grief protection (including rollback capabilities, chest locking, block edit logging) and chat functionality (changing text colors in game, and in-game chat from our discord server).

As stated above, join our discord if this is what you’re looking for and tell us about yourself before we whitelist you.

When you join our discord you will see we have a couple hundred members in our sidebar, but don’t let that turn you off if looking for a small community. A large number of our members have joined in years past and since become inactive, as is the case for any long-term minecraft server.

See you around!
