I found a brand new Minecraft Java Edition SMP that is 18+ and it is running All The Mods 10.
The world is fresh and the borders are meant to be claimed so people can build nations and empires. It feels like the server is about progression and big plans like tech and magic and huge builds.
PvP is not random chaos. Wars get declared between nations and there are raid windows so fights are organized. Battles can decide territory and resources and reputation.
A lot of the fun is the politics. Rivalries happen and alliances can form or you can stay independent and build your own peaceful corner.

SealSMP is a combat style survival server where raids and duels actually matter. It is a small public server that feels like a tight group and it runs on Java with bedrock crossplay so more people can join.
The gameplay is vanilla plus with QoL plugins like teleport commands and sethome plus stuff like combat logging rules anti cheat and death logs. There is McMMO for grinding skills and there are custom enchants like a fireball bow enderbow ice aspect and more so fights feel different from normal vanilla.
The server is made for players who like team communication flanks and playing for objectives. People can take roles like duelists trappers scouts or support alchemists and gear crafters. Builders and redstone players are also wanted and bases can be protected with worldguard so their work does not get ruined for no reason.
PvP is allowed across the server but there is a ruleset you have to follow. Raids only happen during specific raid windows and you are not allowed to nuke offline bases outside those times. Hacked clients dupes macros and exploits are not allowed at all. Chat can have banter but straight up toxic behavior is not welcome.
The server aims to stay online 24 7 and they say it runs at 20 tps with no lag so fights and movement feel smooth.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
