This is a vanilla Minecraft server that tries to stay close to the original game. It mixes survival with a semi anarchy style so players have a lot of freedom but there are still some rules.
The world has been running for over four years so you can find all kinds of old bases roads and weird builds. Spawn is totally wrecked and covered in lavacasts so when you first join you have to escape a maze of grief before you can really start playing.
After you get away from spawn you can explore build bases or work on big projects. You might run into other players out in the wild so you can make allies or enemies and see what happens.
The rules focus mostly on keeping the server fair and running well. Cheaters get banned fast and the staff works to keep performance good while still letting people play in a pretty chaotic way.
If you want a survival server that feels raw and old school and you do not mind a rough spawn this place is for you.

casual gameplaychill survivalcommunity-drivencozy survivalCustom Featuresfair progressionfriendly communitylong-term worldMature Behaviorno pay to winno required votingoriginal vibePlayer SuggestionsPlaytime ranksquality of liferelaxed atmosphereSemi VanillaSmall CommunitySurvival multiplayertight knit players
This server is a semi vanilla SMP that feels really close to the normal game but with some smart quality of life stuff. It does not use big grindy plugins that change everything. The whole idea is to keep the original Minecraft vibe but make it more fun to play for a long time.
The community is small but super close and has history going back years. Players help decide what gets added and there is a place where everyone can share ideas. Many of the plugins are custom made so the server can change based on what the players actually want.
The server is strongly against pay to win. You do not have to spend any money to get access to features. You also do not have to vote every day just to rank up. Instead there is a custom system where you level up just by playing. Voting only gives small thank you rewards and is not required.
From what I see this is a chill survival server for people who want an old school community feeling and a staff team that actually listens. It is meant for players who want to hang out and make memories instead of racing through a bunch of flashy pay to win stuff.

This is a small survival server that feels super cozy and friendly. Everyone is whitelisted so you actually get to know the people you play with and it does not feel like some random chaos server.
The world has a border so players do not spread out forever. Towns and bases end up close to each other and it makes the world feel really alive. You see other builds when you explore and it feels like one big connected place.
There is no land claiming and no special world protection. Everything is based on trust between players. That means people are expected to respect each other and not mess with other builds. The whole server is about having a good community instead of a ton of plugins.
The server is capped at around 35 players so it stays small and tight knit. People hang out build towns and just play at their own pace. There is no pressure to grind all day. It is more about relaxing and enjoying survival with a group that actually cares about the world.

WesterCraft is a modded Java SMP that is inspired by Game of Thrones and it feels like a big roleplay world that is trying to recover after a huge war.
The server uses a political system where you rule a House and you deal with stuff like influence stability and royal favor and if you fail other players can knock you down with smarter words or stronger force.
The map is custom built to feel like Westeros with different regions that were hit by war like the Riverlands the cold North and proud Dorne and more places to explore and fight over.
The server is looking for builders who want to make big castles and cities and also lore writers who like making backstories and events plus moderators and event staff who want to help run the drama on the server.
It is whitelist only so they care about quality over quantity and they want a dedicated playerbase that wants to build scheme and rise together before more players are allowed in.
