Bleeding Heart SMP is a hardcore vanilla style world where death is actually permanent. The only way to come back is if another player decides you are worth it and brings your head to a revival shrine. It makes survival feel really social because you are only safe if people care if you live.

The world is still really new. Towns are half built and alliances are still forming. Nothing feels finished yet and that is kind of the cool part. The map is huge with the Far Lands millions of blocks away and there is a world border way out there so you can just walk off and disappear if you want.

The server runs on FabricMC so redstone works like people expect and stuff like TNT duping and gravity block duping works too. People can build crazy machines and maybe even giant cannons if they feel like it.

There is only one mace on the whole server right now and it has already changed owners a bunch of times. The player base is still small but growing and that makes reputations form super fast. What you do actually matters and people remember it.

There are no pay to win things at all and no loot boxes. If you want a super loud server with constant events and instant gear this is not really that. This place feels like the early days of a world where you have to earn survival and the world will remember what players did first.
