This server is called SurviveWithUs and it is a semi vanilla SMP that really cares about quality of life and community. It keeps the original Minecraft vibe and does not try to turn into some crazy mod server. They skip big things like MCMMO and instead use custom features that just make normal survival feel smoother and more fun.
The community is small but super close and some players have been together for many years. Everyone gets to help with big decisions and there is a way for players to suggest new ideas for the server. A lot of the plugins are custom made so the owners can add stuff that the players actually ask for.
The server is totally against pay to win. You do not have to spend money on anything and you also do not have to vote just to rank up. Instead they made their own system where you level up just by playing. If you vote you get a thank you reward but it does not block your progress at all.
The whole point of SurviveWithUs is to feel like an old school friendly SMP where staff are around and the server feels like a group of friends instead of a giant company. They are always trying to grow the community and make more good memories with new players.

Ironbark Hardcore Deathban Semi-Vanilla SMP
aussie gamerscommunity-drivencooperative playdeathban serverhardcore lifestylehardcore survivalhigh difficultylong-term worldMature Playersno paywinPlaytime ranksProgression Rankspvp tensionRisk-rewardSemi VanillaSerious Survivalstrategy basedsurvival grindersSurvival-Focusedvoice friendly
Ironbark SMP is a hardcore style survival server where every death really matters. It is semi vanilla so the game still feels like normal Minecraft but with some smart changes that make it more intense.
The main thing is the custom deathban system. When you die you get banned for 1 hour and it doubles every time you die again. There is a monthly global reset and if you manage to survive 48 hours the last increase gets cut in half. So staying alive is super important and planning ahead actually matters.
There is mcMMO and some reworks to food and survival. Mushroom stew heals 3 hearts. Cake gives extra absorption hearts for a while plus resistance and has a cooldown. Totems are disabled so you cannot just cheat death with a totem. This makes fights and exploration feel way more scary and fun.
Ranks are based only on playtime and they do not give gameplay advantages. They are just for looks and status so it stays fair. The whole idea of the server is smart survival cooperation and real risk. It is looking for more mature players who like challenge and a strong community.
Right now the server is in early access after a December 26 launch and there will be a full launch in the new year. You can join early and help shape the world before the official start.WebsiteDiscord
