SwiftSMP is a new SMP that is trying to keep things mostly vanilla and simple. It is made for people who want an active community and PvP that still feels fair.
At the start there is a 30 minute grace period and then PvP turns on. You are not allowed to grief or steal from chests so your base and builds are meant to be respected. If you kill someone you are allowed to loot what they drop.
The world starts fresh with a 100×100 border so players run into each other early. Later on the border expands as the season goes on. The server also has a voting system where the community decides if the next season is Vanilla or Lifesteal.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPFresh Lifesteal SMP No Admin Abuse
I found a new lifesteal SMP that is trying to keep things fair. The plugins are tested and the staff is not sitting around with commands all the time so it feels less like admin abuse. They still will ban players if needed.
The vibe is mostly do what you want in PvP. Stuff people call dumb like certain weapons and combos are allowed. There is a rule about not just camping spawn to farm new players and there will be consequences for that.
Rules are simple like no cheating or exploits or freecam. No duping and no combat logging. Elytra pearls and stasis are allowed in fights. Also no naked killing since that makes fights super unfair. No loopholes either.
The world border is 20k by 20k blocks so there is lots of room to roam. It might feel empty at first since it is new but they want people to bring friends and help it grow.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPNoHeart SMP Lifesteal Combat Without Anarchy
I found a server called NOHEART SMP and it is a modded survival SMP with a big combat focus. It uses a modpack that includes Enchancement and Arsenal by doctor4t and it also has Lifesteal so fights actually matter.
It is not anarchy though. Griefing is not allowed and stealing is not allowed so you can build stuff without it getting ruined.
It is not scripted but you can make your own lore if you want. When it was posted there were 7 members and 20 slots total so it still feels small.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPArcticMC Towny Factions SMP

PeaSMP is a semi vanilla survival server that tries to keep Minecraft feeling normal. There is no teleport stuff and there are no land claims. You can just explore and build without the world feeling modded up.
It still has a few small extras for fun like wearing blocks as hats and sitting on slabs or stairs. You can also make teams with friends. The server is whitelisted so you have to apply in Discord first and that helps keep trolls out.
PvP is on but it is not the main focus and it does not happen much. New players get one hour of PvP protection. Elytras are disabled in combat and if you PvP log you die. You can loot enemy bodies.
The rules are simple. No hacks or exploits and no harassment. Griefing and stealing are not allowed even though PvP is allowed. Destructive PvP is banned so stuff like TNT minecarts beds end crystals and respawn anchors cannot be used that way.
