Mushroom Island

Banana Sandwich SMP is on Season 3 and it just started so the world is still really new and fun to explore. The community began on a huge mushroom island where everyone is building a safe hub. Shops are popping up and bases are going up and it feels super active.

This server feels like Hermitcraft with a Vanilla plus style. It is survival with small quality of life tweaks like mob heads and armor stand editing. There is a diamond based economy so players can make shops and try to become rich before the market fills up.

The server is 18 plus only so the community is more mature and chill. People here seem to like building and hanging out together instead of griefing or being toxic. There is no pay to win so everything is fair.

Proximity voice chat is required so instead of typing all the time you actually talk to people around you in game. This makes the world feel alive when you run into someone near spawn or at the shopping district.

They run events like a starter house event and later an end release event where everyone can get access to elytra since the dragon drops it. There is also a map you can view to watch the world grow over time.

If you want an adult survival server that is new and focused on community building trading and talking this server fits that really well.
