This is a survival server called BareBonesMP and it feels like one of those old classic servers from back in the day. It has been around since 2019 and it is built around a whitelist so the community stays close and people actually know each other.

The main world is basically vanilla but it has some quality of life plugins. There are things like better sleep rules and tools for armor stands and some extra stats and heads so it still feels like normal Minecraft but smoother.

They run events every weekend so there is always something to do. There are even mayor elections every month so players can get into fun community stuff instead of just grinding alone.

There is also an optional cozy modded server and an unwhitelisted hardcore server if you want a bigger challenge. You can still hang out with the same community while you do it.

The server runs on a dedicated machine so it is up all the time and has no lag in normal play. The discord is active and they use text chat that connects the game and discord so people can talk even when they are not online in Minecraft.

They also have optional proximity voice chat so if you like talking in game you can use that too. The world map was reset on August 10th 2025 so the survival world is fresh but the community is already experienced and organized.
