The Pen MC is a classic prison server that feels like the 2014 era. It is barebones and grindy and you do not get overpowered armor. There is no instant sell so you actually have to smelt your ores and make the trip to sell through pvp zones.
You rank up from A to H and then you can reach Parole. After you max rank you can keep going with a prestige system. The cool part is you can choose how you grind because there are different paths like mining fishing mob arena combat and a bakery style cookie farming system.
The server has guards that enforce contraband rules and there are illegal crops that are high risk and high reward. You can rent cells and plots and use an auction house plus player shops. There are bounties solitary confinement and parkour too. Paid stuff is not meant to be pay to win because everything premium can also be earned by playing.

BeeetCraft is a small Vanilla plus SMP that just started and it is trying to stay tight knit with a 17 plus whitelist only community. It is not meant to be a loud public place. The vibe is slow and long term so people can actually stick around.
The gameplay stays close to normal Minecraft with some quality of life tweaks and nothing that feels overpowered. Netherite is not in and the End is also not open right now so progression stays more balanced.
Players help shape what happens next because people vote on features and future updates. Towns can form naturally and shops can matter with a real player economy. Rivalries and politics can happen too but it is supposed to stay chill and low drama.
They also said events are planned and later there could be quest or job systems. The center spawn area is being shaped and new players can build around it.
