This is a hardcore SMP where dying actually matters. If you die you get banned for 24 hours so every fight and every cave trip feels scary and intense.
The server is basically vanilla and it feels really simple and clean. There is barely any pay to win so normal players can just play and still keep up.
The world is unscripted so players just do their own thing and it leads to funny moments and random stories. It is Java only and you play on version 1.20 or higher with a base version of 1.21.11. There is voice chat too so people can talk while they play and that makes it feel more like a real SMP.
If you like hardcore survival and you want a serious challenge but still want a chill SMP style server this one looks really fun.

GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPHardcore SMP No Resets No P2W

This is a hardcore survival multiplayer server where everything is about staying alive as long as you can. When you die it actually matters and the whole world is built around that idea.
The world does not reset so every base and project can last as long as the player does. There is no pay to win stuff. The only rank is VIP and it is just cosmetic so it does not give any advantage in the game.
The server has a coin economy that is fully run by players. You do not buy normal items from admin shops. You earn coins by killing mobs and looting chests then use a trading system and an auction house to trade with other players.
There is a strong land claiming system so you can protect your base and farms from griefing. Your claims stay safe while you are offline but if you die your claims get deleted and your land becomes open again. This makes staying alive even more important.
Teleport commands are very limited. You get one time use of a random teleport so you can start in fresh terrain and there is a home command and a spawn command. There are no teleports to other players.
The server store also has a revive that is basically like starting over with a fresh account so you can play again after you lose your hardcore run without needing a new Minecraft account.
