semi-serious

5 years strong, The Refuge is a thriving semi-vanilla PvE survival server, renowned for its deep lore, fortified by a robust community. Its foundations, sturdier than bedrock, are built on the dedication of our seasoned staff, many of whom have been guiding the server’s journey since its inception.

The magic of The Refuge lies in its democratic ethos – a rare gem in the gaming world! Our server thrives on the ideas of its inhabitants. Your opinion matters here! We invite you to shape our world, contribute to major decisions, and enrich our community events through regular polling. We’re always eager to hear your innovative suggestions for a better gaming experience.

Why just play when you can be a part of creating something exceptional? The Refuge is more than a server – it’s a legacy that’s here to stay.

To ensure seamless gameplay, we run a selection of essential plugins like PermissionsEX, World guard/edit, Coreprotect, and Essentials, and have recently added a dash of extra fun with McMmo. The rules and more intricate details about the server are accessible on our Discord.

3. No Exploiting of Glitches, Hacks, or CheatsExploiting third-party extensions, game modifications, or unintentional game designs (bugs) that give unfair advantages is a bannable offense.
