Waystone is a small semi vanilla SMP on Java 1.21.11. It is made for people who want a long term world where players actually build and talk and keep coming back.
The server keeps things fair with no pay to win and no constant resets. It feels more like a relaxed place to log on and chill instead of a sweaty race.
Building is a big focus and you can make towns or big projects at your own pace. Land claiming is used so your stuff stays safe without feeling annoying.
Deaths are not a huge disaster since your items get saved in a gravestone for a few hours. There is also a skills system that levels up while you play and gives small perks.
When people go adventuring together everyone gets their own loot so nobody has to argue about drops. Proximity voice chat is available if you want it and it is optional.
The world also has seasons and holiday events and other little touches to make it feel alive. The server is whitelist only and hosted in the UK and they say the community comes first.
