Ancient Echoes is an 18+ Minecraft Java SMP that runs on Fabric and uses a whitelist. It feels like one of those servers where people actually talk and do stuff together instead of playing alone.

Right now the server is doing a big End the End event where everyone is clearing out the End. The goal is to wipe it out and then build a brand new gothic End city together as a server project.

There are custom textures and hats and there is also a community jukebox with custom audio. People take turns being the DJ so the server can chill and vibe.

They run frequent community events with combat and non combat nights and also hangout style events. Sometimes they do short week phase spin off modes on a separate server.

There is a new Nether highway and portal network. Staff are also working on an Easter Island zone with boss fights and events that are not about fighting.

They also do seasonal events like Easter Halloween and Christmas and the main idea is a server that stays active with building planning and voice chat.
