Cogs, Crops, and Combat!

Welcome to Cogs, Crops, and Combat! We are a lightly-modded SMP, aiming to have a modded experience, while still maintaining the nostalgic taste that vanilla Minecraft offers. We are a Hermitcraft-esque SMP, and will have a shopping district, community events, and more. The primary mod is the Create mod (Cogs), with support from Farmers Delight (Crops), and the RPG suite of weapons mods (Combat!). We have a couple more mods thrown in as well, such as a few create addons, some additional generated structures to suite our exploration needs, the Traveler’s Backpack mod, and as well as a decoration mod. Overall, it is a very well thrown together pack that encompasses several areas of the game, with automation, farming, exploration, combat, building etc.

We also have some quality of life data packs, such as one person sleep, which further enhance the Minecraft SMP experience. We plan to have a ton of community projects, at the moment, the main project is building a rail line that will connect everyone to the shopping district! We have a core group of 4 of us that have been friends for over 7 years, which we would love to expand to everyone that logs onto our server. Whether you are a builder, a factory designer, an adventurer, or something in-between, this is the server for you!

CatCraft

CatCraft, Vanilla

🔥 🔥 🔥

Welcome to CatCraft!

CatCraft is a smaller, adult only, community focused Minecraft server. We started Season 1 on April 4, 2019. With the launch of 1.18, we began Season 2 in December 2021 to make the most of the new biomes and world generation.

Our intention is a long term world, with a slow world border expansion as new 1.X updates are released. Currently, we’re running 1.20.2with a world border set at 15k in every direction. Our server is hosted in Ashburn, VAon the eastern seaboard of the USA.

While we’re a small-ish community (usually between 30 and 80 total active members)the admin staff is passionate about keeping the server going and providing as many quality of life options as possible. On top of having a Survival server, we also have a Creative server with world edit, as well as an Event server on standby for (a hopeful!) monthly UHC, community planned events, or the occasional mod-pack. Bluemap runs on both Creative and Survival, as well as a discord Chat Bot.

Server Rules

Don’t be a dick. I really think this kind of sums up all the rules, but I’ll spell it out.
Don’t steal shit, dupe, or grief. See rule 1.
We’re a strict 21+ server. We are not child friendly. Swearing is fine, within reason. If that makes you uncomfortable, we are not the place for you.
PVP is turned on. This is not an excuse to be an asshole and snipe people. Play fair, help the loser pick up their stuff, and return all the things. See rule 1.
No hacking. No x-ray. No duping. No forcefield. Whatever might give you an unfair advantage.
Pranking is fine, within reason. Don’t destroy someone’s shit, or cover it with TNT and call it a prank.
In your application, please include your favorite breed of cat.
Patch up creeper holes, fully chop down trees, and don’t leave dirt towers around. We all have to live here, let’s try to keep it pretty looking.
Sign your stuff, keep the server easy to navigate.
Don’t kill withers in the over-world. Just don’t. It never goes well. Under the end portal please.

Harvest SMP

Harvest, Semi Vanilla, smp

🔥 🔥 🔥

Welcome to Harvest SMP!

We are a small, but growing, community of mature Minecraft players accepting of all build styles, technical know-how, and experience. We are at the very beginning of our newest season Harvest Season 3, and would like to invite you all to play!

**Fundamentals of Harvest SMP**

Our main priority in Harvest SMP is the community. Everyone who is a part of Harvest SMP is encouraged to participate in community events and contribute to community builds. Your voice in this server matters just as much as anyone else. Together, the admin team is dedicated to bringing a quality SMP experience for all and want to give players as much freedom as we possibly can.

We want to have a very relaxed and laid back feel to the SMP. Whether you want to build crazy redstone contraptions, or simply want to have a small house and a farm somewhere in the world, you’re free to do so. If you have 10 years of experience playing this game or you’re very new to the game, you’re still welcome here!

Our goal for this season, unlike previous seasons, is to have a long term world. In the past we have had seasons last a little less than a year before a reset. This time, we want this season to last for as long as possible.

**Features**

Our most noticeable features are those which give us a Hermitcraft-like experience. A variety of datapacks and plug-ins have been put together to give us a close enough to vanilla experience. We also have implemented Anti-cheat plug-ins to ensure everyone is having a fair and equal experience.

We plan on having a shopping district with a diamond based economy as well as a minigame district where we can all hangout and have fun.

Whitelist. We have set up an application process in our discord that all players need to fill out before joining, In general this is so we know you actually want to play and will make a good fit for the community. Remember, this is an 18+ server. While we will not ask you to verify your age, we will trust you are telling the truth.

To apply, simply join our Discord and begin your application process.

Build Banter & Beyond

World started @ 10PM MT Feb 8th 2024

I plan to always bring in new people to the server so there’s always an active playerbase, with new friends being made!

Whats different? No Natural Health Regen. What does this mean? When you take damage, no matter how full your hunger is, it won’t regenerate your lost hearts that that pesky skeleton took from you. How can you regenerate your health? Fairly simple: when you spawn, you’ll be given two golden apples to start with. Use them wisely, as they will bring your health back up. You can also use things such as potions, beacons, or crafting golden apples. Why this change? Too make the game feel more like a challenge, no matter how late you are.

Endermen greifing has been disabled. Creepers, and Ghasts still do their thing, though.

Single-player sleep is turned on to make sleeping through restless nights easier.
