Ironbark SMP is a hardcore style survival server where every death really matters. It is semi vanilla so the game still feels like normal Minecraft but with some smart changes that make it more intense.
The main thing is the custom deathban system. When you die you get banned for 1 hour and it doubles every time you die again. There is a monthly global reset and if you manage to survive 48 hours the last increase gets cut in half. So staying alive is super important and planning ahead actually matters.
There is mcMMO and some reworks to food and survival. Mushroom stew heals 3 hearts. Cake gives extra absorption hearts for a while plus resistance and has a cooldown. Totems are disabled so you cannot just cheat death with a totem. This makes fights and exploration feel way more scary and fun.
Ranks are based only on playtime and they do not give gameplay advantages. They are just for looks and status so it stays fair. The whole idea of the server is smart survival cooperation and real risk. It is looking for more mature players who like challenge and a strong community.
Right now the server is in early access after a December 26 launch and there will be a full launch in the new year. You can join early and help shape the world before the official start.

This server is a hardcore SMP with permanent deathban. When you die you are done and there are no revives. The world never resets so everything that happens stays in the history of the server.
PvP raiding and griefing are all allowed across a massive world. The map is 1 million by 1 million blocks so you can try to hide but you are never completely safe. Every step you take could be your last one.
The server is vanilla but it uses a few plugins that make hardcore more intense. There are player heads that drop. You can open dead players ender chests. There is Simple Voicechat support and advanced player stat tracking and some other stuff that keeps the experience focused on survival.
Over ten months more than fifteen thousand players have joined and around eight thousand have already died. People make bases and alliances and become legends but every legend can fall. All the events are unscripted and player led so the stories feel real with real friendships conflict and betrayal.
There is also a wiki made by players that records the server history. It even has a page that lists every player who joined lived and died. If you want a super hard challenge for you and your friends this server is built for that. Just remember if you mess up you are gone.

Ironbark SMP is a semi vanilla survival server based in OCE and it is in early access right now. The server wants to feel like a modern survival world with high tension and real progression and no pay to win stuff at all.
It uses mcMMO and custom deathbans so every death matters a lot. Your first deathban starts at one hour and it doubles every time you die and there is a monthly global reset. If you manage to survive long enough the next increase can get cut in half so staying alive is actually a big deal.
There is a food and survival rework too. Mushroom stew heals more hearts and cake gives absorption hearts for a while plus resistance and then it has a cooldown. Totems are disabled so you cannot just spam totems to stay alive.
Ranks are based only on playtime and they are purely cosmetic. There are no gameplay advantages from ranks so everyone has the same chance to survive. The server is looking for more mature players who like a challenge and who enjoy working together and playing smart instead of just rushing everything.
Ironbark SMP feels like a world where every choice matters and long term survival actually means something again.WebsiteDiscord
