ArcticMC is a newer survival server that started just a couple days ago. It is an SMP that mixes Towny and factions so you can build a town then team up with others or take land for yourself.
PVP matters here but they try to keep it fair with an honor system that is explained in their rules. The community is meant to be calm and friendly so it feels more relaxed than a chaotic war server.
It also uses McMMO style skills so you level up while you play and unlock special abilities. There are custom items too and they even have furniture that is entity based with plans for limits to help with lag.
The world generation is tectonic style so the terrain looks realistic with big mountains and valleys. It seems like a good place to grind build and explore without constant drama.
