Solarion SMP is a whitelisted survival server for players who are 18 or older. It runs on Java 1.21 and is hosted in Arizona but people from everywhere play on it.
The server is inspired by Hermitcraft so it is all about long term worlds and teamwork. Seasons last around six to eight months so there is lots of time for mega bases farms and big community projects. There are minigames parkour puzzles and shared districts that players build together.
The community feels pretty tight knit. People like to collaborate do projects together and sometimes do light roleplay but nothing is forced. It is more about hanging out building and having fun than following a script. The admins seem chill and do not power trip.
There are a bunch of datapacks and plugins that keep it close to vanilla but still convenient. There is optional proximity voice chat a live 3D map grief rollback safer death item recovery custom armor stand tools mob and player heads custom images sitting and laying and more. Sleeping only needs a few players so nights can pass fast.
Chat is unfiltered and open minded. Dark humor and strong language are allowed but you still have to not be a jerk. Overall it feels like a relaxed adult Hermitcraft style server for people who want a long term home.
