✪ Redstoners

✪ Map Art builders, Artwork viewable in game as a map or on the dynmap.

ALL have a place on Vanillarite.

The server also has excellent features for players such as:

✪ Ranks, You gain “Claim blocks” as well as more commands as you get more playtime there is ZERO pay to win on this server.

✪ and there’s the “Ice ways” A server wide teleportation system removing the need for the modded feel of TPA.

USA West

Brand new world

Zaffeine SMP is a new whitelisted 18+ only survival Minecraft community focused on having a vanilla survival multiplayer experience. There are no economy, claim, teleportation, or other semi-vanilla mods with the exception of proximity voice chat, optimizations, and very basic data packs.

Members will hopefully bring a desire and will for fun but also are expected to be mature, reasonable adults.

The fresh world has not launched yet. We are looking for a solid initial group of like-minded players before we begin.

The server is currently run by me. I am a life long gamer and engineer. I work a full time job but I am happy to administer and manage the server in my spare time. I have been playing and enjoying Minecraft off and on since 2009.
