Layers of Fear 2023

| Our Server in a Nutshell |

We are a new server; our community and buildings are all since mid February of 2024. Our current map has borders at the 6k mark with plans to periodically expand to make new vanilla content accessible as it is released. Our vision is to have a server that is as vanilla as possible, while also addressing issues such as the limited map size, looters, and the difficulty of getting 10+ players to sleep at the same time. As such, we have implemented a handful of plugins including renewable elytra (via the ender dragon fight), a simple chest shop system using a currency that is interconvertible with diamonds, and night skip with just one player sleeping.

We have an outstanding community of builders! This is true both in the sense of aesthetically pleasing buildings and cohesive community spaces as well as the sense of efficient and high-throughput farms. Check out Sharing > Builds on our Discord! If you are more just the building type or more just the farming type, don’t worry. There are plenty of players who are happy to help fill in the gaps for you.

We have no land claims plugin, but rest assured your builds and items are safe! We use CoreProtect, a plugin which keeps detailed logs of blocks, items, entities, and more. It allows for custom, precision rollbacks of specific players, time ranges, locations, and more for convenient grief reversal – all in real-time while the server is running. A command from this plugin is enabled which allows all players to check the logs of containers and spaces so you can see if alterations have been made by someone who does or does not have your permission.

| Our Principles |

Community First: Our primary goal is to foster a fun, cooperative, supportive community on our server. Profit from the server is not a short or long-term goal. We want to scale our community, but at a pace that is reasonable and sustainable.

Long-Term Map: We plan to never reset the map. We want builds, farms, and communities made on the server to be permanent, and this is why we have opted for an expanding map to incorporate content from new releases.

Golden Rule: Respect. Other. Players. You can see a more precise list of rules on our spawn board or Discord server, but in general all rules follow from the simple principles of respecting others and using common sense.

Work Hard, Play Hard: The server is on hard difficulty. There is no keepinventory, no /tp, no warps other than /spawn and /home, and staff will not use tools to roll back legitimate deaths or mistakes that do not violate the rules. We hope in our community you will become a pro gamer – not a pro beggar or pro hoarder. We aim to preserve the minimalism and realism of Minecraft, as we believe these features are essential for maximizing players’ sense of immersion in our world and community.

No P2W: We do not and will not even remotely resemble a Pay to Win server. We do accept donations. There are currently no perks for donors, but if any future perks are added they will be purely cosmetic (e.g. colored names or tags in game or on Discord).
