This server is called MC Bloodlines and it is a hardcore SMP that is invite only. It feels like those Minecraft civilization experiments on YouTube but it is not just a short event. It stays up all the time so players can build a whole world and story.
Only people who are already on the server can invite new players. This makes the population grow slowly and kind of like real life. It also keeps trolls away and helps the community stay active.
The server has secret tweaks and special mechanics that you have to figure out by yourself. There are no guides. You need to pay attention and experiment to learn how everything works. It rewards players who are dedicated and curious.
There is a built in clan and family system so you do not just spawn alone in a hardcore world. When you join you are part of a clan and a family right away. You become part of a story that started before you and will keep going after you.
Most clans are looking for more players right now. If you want to join you have to get an invite code from someone who is already playing and follow the instructions for using it.
