I found a small semi vanilla SMP that is in testing right now.
They plan to fully start in about a week so it feels like a good time to join early and help test things out.
The vibe is simple survival multiplayer with a mostly vanilla feel and a small group.

SCAR SMP is a survival multiplayer server where you fight to rise up and climb your way to victory.
People will be winning fights and losing fights while trying to conquer the server. It sounds like the main focus is player battles and taking control.
The plugin is not decided yet and the start date is not set but it is planned to release soon and they are looking for more players to join.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
