I found a growing SMP that is trying to pull in more active players and keep the world feeling alive.
The main hook is lifesteal so fights actually matter and there is also a special mace you can craft with a custom recipe.
It also has a full economy with player shops plus an auction house and sell features. There are clans for teaming up and casinos for gambling. You get stuff like free tags and a home command too.
It is crossplay so Java and Bedrock players can join together and the owner is active.
