Starlight Minecraft is a brand new SMP where you can just hop on and chill. It is all about survival where you build and explore and slowly get stronger. The server is up all the time so you can play whenever you feel like it.
There is a dedicated PVP arena if you like fighting other players and want more of a challenge. You can level up skills with MCMMO and that makes your character feel stronger while you play more. You also get rewards for logging in every day and you can earn money from mob drops so there is a simple economy to mess around with.
The server has lotteries and an economy system and a bunch of different crates like Vote Mob Galaxy and Starlight that give rewards. You can use RTP to find random new spots to build and you can set homes so you do not lose your favorite places.
There is a friendly and active community with staff that actually respond and try to help. They also have a Discord where people hang out and talk and help new players get started. There is even a refer a friend reward so if you bring someone both of you get something and it is easier to start with someone you know.
Overall Starlight Minecraft feels like a welcoming place to relax after a long day play survival how you want and slowly become part of the community.
